As example, there isn't a shred of proof for the constant assertion that the astronomical diagrams are connected with astrological ideas or calculations. ...
We don't even know if they are astronomical.
They are organized differently, with different numbers of divisions, different emphases, and different references, from traditional drawings that look at least superficially similar.
It's possible that a circle populated with labeled stars stands for rulers or dynasties, cities, or cities with specific properties (such as botanical gardens or spas). We're only assuming, until we know better, that a group of stars represents stars.
