This is in keeping with the thread about public schools teaching Islam and my idea that all religions should be taught.  Away we might approach this is with astronomy and the history of mythology that ties all of us.

I see the link is not working properly, however, if I copy and paste it, it works.  

This other link gives a verbal explanation of the sun's apparent movement in the sky.   I am not into astrology so I can not make a good comparison between what actually happens and the astrological explanation, but I was hoping someone could.
