I think HOROSCOPES used to work in the 70's but now I believe the astrologers are just doing it for the money so the stars are no longer telling the truth. You know that even stars will lie if they feel they are just being used.
I used to pay $20 for a decent reading but now this same dude wants $150 and you only get 20 minutes (not the full half hour) and he is so wrong most of the time these days. I am so done with horoscopes , readers, and the like. Also , it seems the male physics have all turned into gay bags and talk lispy. I now call them the fruitcake society of the future.

Sort of. But it's a "material" science, and these days to find someone who is truly qualified to do anyone's horoscope is a rare find. And there's just so much involved. Every single person's horoscope is different. These horoscope readings in the paper and in magazines and on the internet are pretty bogus. I wouldn't put alot of stock in them. They're just kind of amusing if anything.

It's hard for horoscopes to have credibility when no two are the same. I guess the astrologists are reading different stars? Or maybe translating their readings using different books? Or the more probable bullshitting

No.
Astrology (like most occult) is scientifically indefenible and statistiacally demonstrable to have no greater correllation than random chance.
In other words, you can't make any more accurate predictions with astrology than with guessing. Sure, astrologers are real good at "postdictions", but that is after the fact. ALL good science is predictive. If it can't make a verifiable prediction, then it is not science.

Yes. but not that stuff in the paper. real horoscopes consist of a birth chart, placing all the planets in signs & houses -- not just the sun.
You can't cast a chart in a day (at least I can't) well I could but it would take longer to interpret.

Nope. Most of them sound decent, but they're so vague, that 95% of people will go "Oh yeah, that applies to me". Kind of like how prophecies are (think Nostradamus's ridiculously vague poems)
