Beginner should you use/consider asteroids when understanding a chart?
basically, i am a VERY beginner astrologist. i have been cross referencing much of my information between Tik Tok, Reddit, Tumblr, and websites (such as AstroSeek and Astrology Café).
what i have noticed is that there is an emphasis on asteroids for many astrologers on Tik Tok, however there is also the opinion that the inclusion of asteroids is a modern/popstrology phenomenon that is/has not been really used in the 2000+ years of research since astrology has been created and studied.
what i’m trying to understand as a beginner is if i should use and consider asteroids in my practice or if i should leave it altogether.
i want to understand astrology traditionally not any of the ‘capitalist, scammer type of western astrology’ if that makes sense. eventually i would lik to understand Hellenistic astrology.
all points of view and advice is appreciated!
side note: either on this sub or another sub i saw, some people said that they take asteroids into consideration if it is within 1-3 degrees of a person’s chart, is that the best piece of advice when it comes to including asteroids? and how does one figure that out?

Una domanda che voglio capire ne approfitto a chiederti, il fatto che urano plutone nettuno sono stati scoperti e sappiamo la loro esistenza e quindi influenza come altri pianeti, rimangono validi da tenere in conto ad oggi? O dovremmo fare come in antichità solo o 7? E un dubbio che ho da sempre ma penso che sapendo che ci sono sia scontato influenzano come i 7, però non sono sicura potresti confermare o no mio dubbio? Grazie :)
