Is astrology real?

Question

A couple of years ago, I talked to a psychic, Irecieved a booklet, report, don't really know what to call it.. anyways its was about how my zodiac sign affected my personality.. possible relationships.. etc. Does the way the stars and planets were arranged when you were born really have something to do with it?

Answer 1

I have been interested in astrology for 15 years, if I had found no basis to it, i would have given up on it long ago. I am not a flaky person, but I do recognize there are many things we cannot understand or explain. Do not base your opinion on astrology from magazines and newspapers, these do not really touch on astrology at all. The theory behind it, is that astrologers believe that the energies and gravitational pulls in the universe have an effect on us. The moon has an effect on the ocean, and the ocean animals, since we are mostly water, it stands to reason that we could also be affected by it. I have guessed many peoples signs just by looking at them, or after meeting them for a few minutes. an interesting experiment is to think of all the close people in your life that you chose (friends, relationhips) and see if there is any recurring pattern. That being said, astrology(like everything else) is not the be all and end all of everything. Many things including genetics and environment shape us.

No, horoscopes and psychics tell you things that really apply to everyone. One newspaper ran the same horoscopes for five years straight and nobody knew the difference, because everyday you subconciously find a way to make your days horoscope fit you, when really it applies to everyone. And by the way, Christianity is real

Answer 4

its been continuously around MUCH longer than any religion, and it is the single most widely held belief on the planet. there has to be SOMETHING to it..... the idea that the position of the largest parts of the immediate universe at the time and place of your birth have an impact on the energies which enter, pervade, and leave your life certainly is supported by modern science at the least. to solve for a state of a given system at a given time, you need an Initial energy state (birth chart) and a guide or equation as to how the system will evolve as a function of time (motion of planets and earth). sure its not as certain as an equation, but i wouldnt throw it out entirely :)

Answer 5

There are no rational reasons to pay any attention to astrology. It doesn't even have the "secular" value that some religious values have like "do unto others", etc...
As far as going to a psychic. She saw you comming.............

Answer 6

Is Christianity real? Is Islam real? Astrology has always been right about my relationships with women

Answer 7

Sure as real as flying carpets, unicorns, elves, sprites, ghosts, Atlantis, genies, ice giants, U.F.O.s, E.S.P., dowsing, remote viewing, tarot cards, tea leaves, angels, deamons, numerolgy, spell casting, dragons, Loch Ness Monster, yetis, auras, Bermuda Triangle, clairvoyance, police psychics, witchcraft, iridology, and many I missed.

None of these have any evidence but don't let that stop you.

Answer 8

I dont believe it astrology, I think its just for entertainment purposes only.

Answer 9

My personal experience determines that astrology is real enough but do not depend on it.

Answer 10

It can be fun for entertainment, but do not let such things make important decisions for you. Use sound judgement and reason, please!
