Astrological is a Forge mod by Apothicon that gives the End dimension a dramatic overhaul. It adds two new layers of islands beneath the existing terrain, reworks all End biomes with unique features, and introduces over 50 new blocks with custom lighting to create a more immersive and alien atmosphere.

One of its standout mechanics is the Anti-Eclipse event, where players in line of sight of the Ender are pulled upward as the ambient lighting intensifies. By default, the mod also changes End progression. You now start in the outer islands and make your way to the center to fight the dragon. (This feature is disabled in the Exosphere modpacks.)

Most of the textures were made by Jacqueline Vile, and the mod blends beautifully with other world generation mods from Apothicon, who also developed the terrain mod used in BM: Exosphere. Astrological was later added to the modpack series, enhancing the End with new depth, danger, and atmosphere.

In the Exosphere modpack, the End is further expanded with Uraninite Geodes, which generate throughout the End islands. These geodes contain Uraninite, the green ore used in the Powah! mod for energy production, giving players a new reason to explore the End post-dragon.

You will also encounter the Chaos Guardian and its massive island, imported from Draconic Evolution. This intense boss fight adds a high-tier challenge and makes the End feel even more like a true endgame dimension.
