David Bustamante S. (M.A.)
How many people “are” Aries or Virgo or have brown eyes? Would we describe them all the same? When we are asked about “our” Zodiac sign, we are asked about the position of only the Sun during the epoch of birth (not even the day, much less coordinates such as time or place). The Sun sign constitutes a minuscule part of our astrological birth chart (astrography), for in it we assess ten heavenly bodies, twelve signs (not constellations), twelve regions, and five angular relationships, which, so far, represents more than 7,200 possible combinations. Only in this way could astrology be separated from horoscopism, which does not — simply because it cannot — bear any scientific basis.
DAVID BUSTAMANTE SEGOVIA, better known as SAGITTARIUS, is a Hispanic-American legal translator, professor, and astrologer, author of Commentary on astrology according to epigenetics (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.8210413). He has contributed with his articles and papers to the Spanish Society of Astrology (SPICA), The Mountain Astrologer (USA), and to GeA (Buenos Aires). He is also the author of «Time Dilation according to Tropical Astrology and Why the Placidus Measurement of Astrographic Regions is Compatible with Relativity Theory» (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.13841957). Bustamante studies both physics and astrology relentlessly and has a special passion for medicine and classical music and considers considers astrology a non-exact scientific discipline (resembling medicine, meteorology, or forensic psychology) that contemporary Western society has wrongfully reduced to Sun-sign “astrology”. Bustamante writes against ignorance and superstition and in favor of scientific literacy, conscience, and reason.
He holds a BA in Psychology and a master’s degree in Journalism. He also has taken courses in Law and Genetics and taught Writing and Journalism genres. He is an associate member of the American Translators Association (ATA), a Cambridge certified English teacher, and an expert in Legal English (Washington D.C.), which he also teaches.

Comentarios sobre el trabajo de SAGITTARIUS por parte de otros profesionales de la disciplina.
Juan Estadella
Spanish researcher and astrologer
Barcelona, Spain
“Bustamante’s research follows this path, undertaken in the last century by a few astrological scholars. We urgently need research with a similar profile. […] In the face of a publishing production full of manuals with useless astrological recipes that hardly contribute anything to this knowledge, the present study successfully distances itself from this uniform and gray bibliographical reality. […] Bustamante’s work constitutes a valuable contribution to our collective, another golden stone in the construction of the astrological pyramid. It is to be hoped that it will receive the welcome it deserves and that its author will continue to offer this discipline his efforts and research talent, for the good of astrology itself”.
Excerpt from the Foreword of ASTROGENESIS, future publication of Sagittarius.

“Bustamante’s work is characterized by an in-depth analytical production that cannot be found in any other work of the present nor of the past (excepting, perhaps, Morin) and that evokes the spirit of science. It shows, moreover, the commitment of its author to the craft, which automatically implies combating its distortion and dishonest profit.”

“David never quenches his thirst and is always ready to debate, providing his opinion with criteria and intelligence. He is a skeptic who investigates everything and questions even his own ideas, someone who is clear that what he knows is a drop of water in the ocean, which is why he is able to continue to grow uninterruptedly, while contributing.”
