Do you read your horoscope every day?

Yes I understand what you say! And also when people ask you what's your sign, you ask back but you don't really make any conclusions from it! You just ask without thinking!

Exactly! And sometimes people tell eachother that their personality matches their sign,like people very often tell me,despite the fact that there is no scientific proof or any kind of logic that proves that a person's personality can be determined from their date of birth. I guess people just feel safer when they feel they know what's coming and what to expect of others...

Have you ever consulted an astrologist? Noone has ever created my personalised prediction according to my birth date and time! I am not convinced that my future can be predicted by the planets position, I want to believe that I make the decisions for myself and I am responsible for them.

My horoscope is prepared by a astrologer who was living near our place.He was an experienced astrologer.Since I don't know astrology,I have no idea whether my horoscope is accurate or not.Still I know one thing and it is that stars and planets influence our lives.Of course,we can prosper if we labor hard,but to a large extent our tendencies are also controlled by planets.I can explain it through an example.Our body mass has 97% of water.As you must be knowing about tides that occur on full moon nights.The water of the sea is affected by moon.It is therefore that the mad grow violent on full moon nights.Similarly our nature,behavior and tendencies are affected by planets and stars.

I agree, usually it's very general to fit with everyone, so that many people can relate! Sometimes I might think as well that it's talking about me! But other times it's irrelevant so I guess it's just a coincidence! :-)

I was registered online once and it still comes in my e-mail every week. I guess that money and relationships is where most people focus when they read the horoscope. But I understand that you do it for fun mostly, I do the same! Have a nice day & thanks for your comment!

I read my weekly horoscope because it comes in my e-mail! When it says good things it makee me happy for a while but then I forget it! What if it says that you should avoid discussions etc, in a day that's not good according to the planets, do you follow it then?

Moments like that are hard to forget and they need time. This is the tricky part with horoscopes because they might be correct a couple of times and they are then connected in our minds with those life changing moments that might be good or bad. However we should also think about the moments that they didn't come true in order to have a balanced opinion.

Exactly, they can't predict how my day is going to be and if I'll make a good deal or not in my job for example! But I think that the predictions are very general and people that want to believe can find things that relate to their life!

I am sure that if we read the monthly horoscope, we'll all find something to relate to! In a month many things can happen and it's possible to relate with the general predictions of a horoscope! But otherwise it's as you said impossible to predict the life of all those different people worldwide who happen to have the same sign! I read it for fun when I do because it comes in my e-mail every week! I subscribed once and they still send it!

Hi! I also read it every week, but I don't base my decisions on my horoscope! Every person is different and I can't accept that all the people with a particular sign are going to have the same day! I can even see the difference between my friends and me that were born with a few days difference! Thanks for your comment!

I've never checked to see if they've actually predicted what has happened! I am sure that similar things must have happened to me as well. But it's true that they are general as you said, and every individual can relate the daily experiences with it. There are standard expressions that they use, like, you'll have an interesting meeting from the past, or be careful with your finances this month because additional expences might appear.

Hi! Thanks for your response! I've never given much attention to the characteristics of each sign and rarely people guess my sign correctly if they are trying to! Well, some of them find it with the 3rd try! It is fun to read them though, I agree!

Yes, there are some newspapers with the horoscopes on the last pages! I prefer reading them from magazines when I do it though, I think that they say more interesting things! The predictions also depends on the audience sometimes! I've noticed that the newspapers are a bit more "serious" and talk about economics and work. The magazine predictions might emphasize on relationships and social life which is more fun to read for me!

We are all happy when we read that good things will come to us! Even if you don't believe in horosopes it's nice to have someone saying that you'll have good luck today and you'll be happy. But that's only for a moment, I forget the predictions very quickly and I don't do or avoid things during my day. When we feel down, we're looking for a reason or for someone to say that everything is going to be ok and this is because of the planet's position and next week, we'll be happy again! Sometimes we make fun with my friends, if everything goes wrong we say that it's because Mercury is retrogate!

I guess we can control it if we really know that it can't be nothing more that coincidence! I read it for fun and I also notice if some of the predictions have happened but then I forget it!

You are very precise in your description! I do read it for fun because it is still sent to my e-mail every week, but I agree that we shouldn't believe in such predictions about the future. However, there is an entire business built on horoscopes and this means that a lot of people in the world believe in it!

This is how I see them as well, they are a business that has been established through the years and there are people that have made it a way of living. It is fun to read the predictions and the characteristics of each sign but I don't believe that we should follow the advice that they give on our daily life!

Thank you for your comment! I also forget it after I read it, and I've noticed that what they say is very general so that a lot of people can relate to them. They look like well expressed general ideas that can be applied to a wide audience. So when people believe in them, they feel that this is actually a prediction of the things that have happened to them!
