Astrologer Examines the Rise of Trend-Driven Sun Sign Astrology on Social Media
Michael Spremulli - Professional consulting vibrational astrologer and founder of Blue Ridge Astrology, a firm that specalizes in providing professional, modern astrology services.
Michael Spremulli of Blue Ridge Astrology explores the limits of sign-based astrology and offers a research-based alternative.
“Much of what’s going viral right now reduces people to personality stereotypes,” says Spremulli. “It’s catchy and entertaining, but it often misses the complexity that real astrology can offer. At best, it’s incomplete. At worst, it reinforces limiting beliefs about who people are.”
Spremulli specializes in Vibrational Astrology (VA), an emerging research-based approach that examines how planetary energies interact—similar to frequencies coming together to create unique rhythms. Rather than focusing solely on where planets fall by sign, VA analyzes the geometric relationships between planets to reveal the deeper patterns that influence behavior, motivation, and emotional dynamics.
The Limitations of Sign-Based Astrology
While social media has made astrology more visible and accessible, Spremulli notes that an overemphasis on Sun sign identity and similar shorthand concepts may contribute to generic advice that doesn’t always resonate with individual experiences.
“It’s like trying to understand a symphony by listening to just one instrument,” he explains. “Signs can tell you how an energy might express—but they don’t tell you what’s actually being expressed. The substance comes from how these planetary energies interact with one another.”
In contrast, Vibrational Astrology identifies these interactions by exploring harmonic patterns—what Spremulli describes as the “architecture beneath the signs.” This approach seeks to move beyond broad categories and offer more personalized insight into the recurring themes and life dynamics that shape an individual’s experience.
A Deeper Approach to Astrology
Spremulli emphasizes that most people who seek out astrology are not just looking for entertainment—they are looking for clarity, self-understanding, and meaningful answers about their lives and relationships.
“When someone keeps repeating the same self-sabotaging pattern, they don’t need to be told they’re a ‘fiery Aries’ or a ‘sensitive Pisces,’” he says. “They need to understand how their inner wiring actually works. That’s where Vibrational Astrology offers something different.”
Supported by statistical research conducted within the VA community, this methodology focuses on planetary vibrations and harmonics to uncover the energetic “chords” that define a chart. It offers a data-driven framework for understanding psychological patterns, behavioral tendencies, and emotional needs.
Expanding the Conversation
Spremulli clarifies that this perspective is not intended as a rejection of signs altogether but as an invitation to consider a more layered and comprehensive approach.
“Signs are the paint color on the walls,” he explains. “But what about the wiring, the plumbing, the foundation? You can’t fully understand the structure of the house by looking at the paint alone.”
As interest in astrology continues to grow, Spremulli hopes to encourage both practitioners and astrology enthusiasts to explore approaches that honor the complexity of human experience rather than relying solely on surface-level descriptors.
