Do you believe in astrology/horoscopes? If any, which are particularly good or accurate? I know there are many variations...

Astrology is pseudoscience, and while it's kind of fun to read the horoscopes, it's mostly fun for me because it's an exercise in psychology and seeing how those vague statements really can fit anyone. It confounds and amazes me that a belief system which emerged in ancient Babylonia and was developed more fully in Alexandrian Egypt is still believed today, when we know so much more about the way the world works and what those heavenly bodies *are*.

Yes, great men of science like Newton and Hippocrates were astrologers. Ancient astrology could predict future events accurately like what the three wise men did in the birth of Jesus. Modern science can not even tell now what was the exact time of that past event. One good example is the Love Chart. It is in the internet. Another good example, is Star Signs by Linda Goodman. I am talking of the ones I tried. There may be more good examples.

INTERESTING QUESTION !
There "seems" to be a connection , at what
date u were born .
The "Starsign" u were born under, SEEMS
to give u certain Characteristics. Mostly how
you behave (or DISbehave)
An interesting "game" , is to practice on
"guessing" people's starsign !
But leave it at that, there is enough Hocus-Pocus in this world ......

A little bit. There seems to be some signs I just can't seem to get along with.

No. I have twins grandsons born 15 minutes apart, and they are very different, character wise.

No. It is dangerous. It will open you up to Satanic influances. Stay away and be safe.

No. Just take what comes along and deal with it.
