In my country, astrology is very strongly believed. From birth, education, carrier, land, marriage, death ..and so on.. but will it block ones freedom to live? or will it give a chance of better life? I felt many astrologers are fake also. Its a science combined with mathematical calculations. What you people think?

It is not in our belief to rely on astrology but I do read my horoscope once in awhile for fun. I believe I make my own destiny and my own success. I believe in prayers and God but I pray more for gratefulness rather than asking for something.

Right.. But there are many situations where family decides on behalf of this decision and many suffer due to such situation. I do believe in the real astrology but cant believe on a single person's words. Anyway he can not be god right

@digiguru,I believe astrology is a science.True that some astrologers are fake,but it doesn't mean that astrology is fake.Even some doctors are fake,but nobody says that medical science is fake or superstition.

@anamika161088 Of course,but if even a single astrologer is true and genuine,it's enough to prove that astrology is a science.

Yes, astrology is very much in our culture. every other community will look into the horoscope for predictions for marriage or any for planning any auspicious occasions.

@digiguru many be due to mismatch of birth timings . I do not claim horoscope reading is very exact, but I do believe that a good reader knows the truth and they give us a subtle warning. It is we to decide and choose.

@durgabala this is another trouble. by mistake the birth time is given wrong, everything goes wrong. as its mathematical calculation.

Taken in the right perspective astrology is interesting. Some people have taken it to far and that is what has changed a lot of people's feelings about astrology.

Astrology is a great science, unfortunately, as you correctly say, there are too many fake astrologers.

I never take much notice of this sort of thing, I am sceptical about it.

I've always been a bit skeptical but when I was a teenager, I did have my astrological chart done. A lot of what was written about me at the time was correct, but much of what was in there about my future has not come to pass. So she, at least, did not have the gift. I'm sure there are people who can really read people's charts and get it right, though.

@digiguru I agree with you. That's what I said in my last sentence.

Astrology is Quantum Physics as much as I know. Astrology is practiced in almost every country, type may differ. For example Crystal reading, Tarrot reading, Fortune tellers etc. I believe that it is possible to tell you the past but predicting Future is something not digestible to me. They do effect our lives when someone in the house get heavily dependent on astrologers.
