No I do not. Too many people these days, get psychics and astrologers confused. I'm 50 years old and have studied and practiced astrology since I was a teenager.
First let me explain that Astrology explains only your character & personality and your strengths and weaknesses. It is called your astrological makeup. It is not a psychic map to your future.
Based on your astrological makeup, expert astrologers can sometimes guess accurately what your "response" might be to certain challenges & things on the road in life. But these modern store-front phony psychics that have popped up in the last twenty years, have all but destroyed astrology and the astrologer's reputation.
Always remember this...A real psychic doesn't need to know your birthdate to see things in your furture. They operate by vibe, a piece of clothing, getting vibes from you, things like that. An astrologer on the other hand, is not a psychic. He cannot see into the future. Using your birthdate, he can only tell you what your personality & strengths & weaknesses are like. That's it.

Most horoscopes are written in a general sense of what could possibly happen to you. While I don't really dwell on them, I do believe that if you try, you can make your horoscope appear to come true. If yours says that you will find romance and you are married, it doesn't mean that you can't have a romantic moment when your spouse says I love you. If you are 5 years old then you won't know what a romantic moment would be. So typically, I don't believe in everything it says but, they are fun to read sometimes.

I am a Cancer. If there were all that much to astrology, that Scorpio I married should have been a match made in Heaven. Not hardly.
And I did once see the identical newspaper horoscope under two different signs within a few days of each other. Word for word. They didn't pay any attention, just recycled something from a few days ago and put it under a different sign. To me newspaper horoscopes about amount to fortune cookies. Nothing.

If it's not something out of a magazine, then what does a forecast really say other than there are certain influences that will affect your personal psychology?
Hey, when the moon is full, crime and general whoptie-doo increases. Doesn't mean you have to participate, but apparently there is a lunar influence of some kind.
Seasonal changes can affect peoples' moods, and so can the weather. But they have a certain degree of free-will, and they have other experiences and influences in their lives that override seasonal, lunar, etc influences.
I wouldn't put more demands on Astrology as a spiritual framework than I would put on other spiritual frameworks, and I don't think you should either. It's easy to be dismissive toward people who send in money to the PTL Club in the belief that somehow God will make them rich if they do so, but que sara, sara.

I meant to steer clear of the lady's question for she addressed the commoners and yours truly is not one of them. But alas, I'm afraid my deviance has gotten the best of me and I find myself answering your grace's inquiries regardless. Besting the monkey would depend on the amount of time foresight is in my disposal. If it be just sufficient for me to know whether or not I be able to beat the monkey's time then I say, with a humble heart, that I might not be able to. Milady, please understand that I do not have the luxury of being as random as the monkey. I have a hint of familiarity with Shakespeare's works and that could prove as a detriment if I had to replicate his works down to the last letter. I would have preconceived phrases that I would type out and should I misquote them, I would not have an inkling to go back to them and thus leave the phrases inaccurate forever. However, if precognition is in my disposal whilst I try to recreate Shakespeare's works then the day is mine. I would, quite simply, think of a letter and look into the future to see if typing it would hasten my ordeal. Pisces. Edit: What I meant when I said that I'm not a commoner is that I'm not really a regular in this section so I'm not commonly found here. Not that I think I'm high and mighty or something so no kingdom will try stop you if you took me to the dungeon. I certainly wouldn't.

Not everything, but generally some predictions come right, for this your horoscope should be exact,also the man who predicts from the horoscope should know about all the planetery positions as well their changes.

About 8 out of 10 things are true, or do come true - at least in my experience.

They say that you horoscope is on both your parents side, you are what your parents are also, so I'm not sure if that works but it will explain is you act like another horoscope..

Astrology is designed not to dictate your life, but to be a guideline for it. You can't be guillable enough to expect your horoscope will be accurate everyday (millions of other people share the same sign), but it can be helpful if you apply it to your own common sense.

But they are written for the masses not individuals
