Yes. The Greeks are literally why you have to pretend to respect people that talk about Pisces in ascendency or whatever, and their astrologers were their astronomers, they recognized the difference between observation and divination but used the terms interchangeably nonetheless.
There are some famous examples who doubtless thought the mysticism was nonsense, but it was what paid the bills so they told their patrons what they wanted to hear and then went back to their math and charts.
It's older than the Greeks. The astrologers in Mesopotamia already collected historic events as a source for predictions
The Greeks mostly copied that. If they created it, they wouldn't have used this 'goat' as the first constellation of the year that started with the spring equinox.
Do Cassiopeia now. Literally boobies.
This post is worthless without a picture of them boobies.
It's just a giant W. https://images.app.goo.gl/tB4eDwzj2K6ra21t7

Mallrat to "Astrologers":
Ha ha ha ha. You dumb bastard. It's not a (goat)... it's a Sailboat.
A goat is a sailboat!
Big dipper is the only one that makes sense.
Really? Ursa major, the big bear?
The swan at least resembles a stick-figure bird.
Orion isn’t bad, with his belt and “sword”.
Except the dangling thing under his belt is definitely... not part of his belt.
