I have written this little project above and as a consequence I had to learn how to compute certain astrological aspects. And oh boy, astrology isn't just not working because "it can't work". It is also terribly imprecise in its assumptions..
In theory you could calculate the astronomical part (position of certain bodies even if some are just fictional like Lilith, Iris etc.) and check for correlation with astrological predictions. But each astrological system makes so many soft assumptions that you can't decide which system is the true one.
For example you have division of a horoscope in 12 houses. But there are multiple systems of that division (Whole sign, Placidus, Regiomontanus, Krusinski/Pisa/Goelzer) each at odds with each other...
You might be familiar with concept of Age of Aquarius. Well estimates of when is this going to happen vary from 1844 to 3573 CE depending on astrologer...
