I was reading some things from Neil deGrasse Tyson just before this....something attempting to undermine the value of astrology. And I was thinking about science and how it has evolved from a holistic attempt at describing reality (I'm thinking of the beautify mandalas of the 4 humors of temperment, cardinal directions, 4 seasons, etc) to a scientific method of pulling it apart. Perhaps the net result of pure quantitative analysis is something like the Engineers/White men -- something that is self-limiting in synthesizing aspects of perception, of reality because it chooses to only look at the trees and discounts the forest. hmmmm.....
