Horoscopes and such gives quite a valid descriptive perspectives on the person wanting to find the characteristics and behavioural patterns. Its not to used for dictating your personal life or other peoples' lives, unless you wanted it to.
Reference will do. Any further then you know what happen. -

The thing they say is kinda general, so I guess it applies for everyone.Originally posted by FireIce:use as reference only, do not take it too seriously

Exactly. Those newspaper astrologers tend to give rather common-sense advice that would apply to anyone. Also, they work on human optimism, as in if just one prediction is correct you'll think it's very accurate even though a hundred other predictions are wrong.Originally posted by coldzero:The thing they say is kinda general, so I guess it applies for everyone.
For a really intellectual analysis of horoscope columns, read Theodore Adorno's "The Stars Down to Earth". -
only taiwanese take horoscope so seriously.

Astrology is the study of planetary cycles and how energies of these events relate to their concurrent time on Earth. It uses the harmony of the universe to observe the possibilities of human behavior and experience. Astrologers analyze the position of the planets at the time and place you were born to map your strengths, challenges and your souls purpose as well.
In astrology, a horoscope is a chart or diagram representing the positions of the planets, other celestial bodies, and sensitive angles at the time of an event, such as the moment of a person's birth.
Problem with Astrology:
1. Almost nobody remembers/knows exactly when and where he/she is born.
2. Calculating the positions of the planets and stars at your time of birth is very complex and EXTREMELY prone to errors.
3. Knowing just your Sun sign is too general!!! You cannot get much out of it.
You will need to know 12 items below to see the BIG picture.
1. Rising Sign
2. Sun Sign
3. Moon Sign
4. Mercury Sign
5. Venus Sign
6. Mars Sign
7. Jupiter Sign
8. Saturn Sign
9. Uranus Sign (Example: Uranus in Sagittarius)
10. Neptune Sign (Example: Neptune in Sagittarius)
11. Pluto Sign (Example: Pluto in Libra)
12. North/South Nodes
Summary:
1. If you do not know your exact time and place of birth, forget about astrology and horoscope.
2. Just think of astrology as a way of discovering more about your unique self. If you think you understand enough about yourself, you do not need astrology.

It's quite zhun because most humans are about the same. There are always a few exceptions, whereby it will not apply to that person.

Simple Analogy :Originally posted by Texcoco II:How valid is tat? I can't believe in live in a universe where positions of stars or planets decide my life How much truth can a horoscope contains for a human being?
If there is a fire in the science lab, and a cat runs out because of a fire, u notice the cat running out, then u hear the fire alarm sounding, u might (mistakenly) think the cat 'caused' the alarm. Same mistaken thinking with astrology.
Like many other spiritual matters, most pple misunderstand how astrology and horoscopes work.
It's NOT that the planets and stars control/decide/influence your life (while on the extraphysical/multi-dimensional level, these do indeed symbolize powerful energies that human souls can interact with, usually in preparation before incarnating into a physical body; but that is another matter for another discussion), but rather :
The date and time that you're born into this physical dimension and planet (Earth in our case), is very deliberately chosen (taking into consideration, psychically influencing and manipulating factors including the use of medical drugs used to induce labor and family, doctors' decisions, etc) by yourself and those on your side (ie. your guides & helpers, evolutionary orientor, helper technicians on the other side, angelic beings, etc), to SYMBOLIZE and REFLECT, using the science or body of knowledge known as Astrology (although, as with all systems, there are different astrological systems with varying emphases and interpretation, but this is also taken into consideration in the planning), the karma, work, purpose, challenges and relationships of the soul, specifically for this relevant physical incarnation.
So yes, astrology can be helpful IF you interpret it correctly. But there are many other forms of symbolism and higher communication (ie. with your own higher self or soul; the higher self of the higher self of the higher self... for all beings, is God... yes of course, *You* are God, don't ever let anyone tell u otherwise!).
