    My question is. What is the mechanism that is creating this supposed effect?
    Who said anything about deterministic? In my opinion, a more interesting way of looking at astrology is to imagine that human affairs and planetary/interstellar dynamics are each co-determined by deeper universal laws (i.e. everything is related to everything else).

    Also, to say something along the lines of "star positions suggest an increase in global hostility" does not imply that the stars are determining any specific outcome, but only that they are related in some abstract way to large scale human/societal tendencies.
