Do you believe what the astrologers say?
Mainly when they tell you to take some stones to make goodluck?
I am not so reserved against astrology, but i do not believe in stones and all.
I guess if astone can change life, why they are not themselves all powerful?
i think what we try to do in life whole heartedly happens at last. May be luck favours or it does not, but nothing with stones, what is your view?
any idea welcome.

Astrology is a science.. and pure science..and within which the complex phenomenon of man's life is dealt with.
Why then the things go wrong? One may ask.
It is not the fault of astrology, but that of the astrologer. The astrologer, decodes the logics only from his inherited knowledge. How far he has mastered the subject remains a question.
As for as stones, is concerned i also believe that it is also true.
But the money makers, with the only sole aim of prospering from it, do sell duplicate stonesthat don't carry the power.
When i say power, i speak of the chemical and physical properties of stone. It is the constant contact of the stone, with the body along with the natural sunlight, and other components of atmospheric gases can certainly bring changes to the body.
It is only my way of approach to the subject, and only my beliefs, my friend.
Take care and have a good day.

I dont believe in horoscopes and this stone stuff.My family is a great believer of horoscopes.My mother is forever saying something or the other.She will be reading the entire family's horoscopes everyday as if she was reading a novel.I dont want to get involved like her.Nothing happens like what they say.We are what we make of ourselves.We just have to have faith in ourselves and go ahead in life.

I know nothing about astrology. I think I believe in Feng Shui more as it talks about balances in life.
I do not think the positions of the stars in the Universe has much to do with what happens in our lives.
As for the stones, I will buy it but not because I believe in it. I buy it because some of these stones are pretty. My birth stone is sapphire. Very pretty stone. Diamond is even prettier

I do not know of astrology using stones, astrology is the prediction of a person's life and personality based on the position of the planets, and no I do don't believe.

I have heard of certain stones and jewels giving people good luck and power and whatnot. I believe that they work, but its really not the stones themselves. I believe that its the belief of the person that has the stone that makes it work. If you believe something strong enough, whether right or wrong, in your mind it becomes true. So when a person gets this "powerful" stone from an astrologist, and believes wholeheartedly that it works to bring some sort of change in their lives, the change will happen. Its not the power of the stone, its the power of the belief in the stone.

Don't believe it in, its even worse than religion.
Astrology is just lowly.
All it is, is just some of the following
"You'll find love on Tuesday"
- Yea right.
"If you are a Cancer the stars have lined up for you"
- Uh huh sure -_-
"Something exciting will happen"
- So?
"Opportunity awaits for you"
- Got anything that could actually help? -_-

i do believe in astrology.there is this guy i know who has told our families about things and they have come true too.i feel its more like a science where things can be predicted.but at the same time i believe in karma too and i feel that you do have a way of making things allright.
for stones,yes i feel they do have a healing power but i would prefer not to start wearing them cos m more afraid of dependance on them!

about astrology, i don't take it seriously in my life. perhaps they are right about their forecast but for me i prefer my futures being mystery so that i can learn by my own self about which is good or not in my life

you are making a good point. though astrology is mysterious, i don't believe in it. people should believe in themselves. the only god is self

It is fun to read your horoscope but I believe very little of it at all.sometimes I read my horoscope and it says something that suits meto a t but that is just happenstance. we make our own luck and we don't neet horoscopes to tell what we should do or not do.

Hi me too dont believe in stones. If stones could have been helpful to change the life then the labourer who mined theses could had been the millionaire. the person selling such stones could not had been the just stone seller. About luck, yes I believe in luck. But not so much that every thing will happen on its own. You have to do some work only then you get the reward. As there is a saying that "God help those who helps themselves".
