The James Randi Educational Foundation offers a prize of one million dollars to anybody who is able to show any evidence of supernatural, including astrological predictions, numerology and any other pseudo-scientific claim.
To date, nobody has retired the prize.
Think to that before giving credit to people claiming that they can predict the future. Anybody able to make a prediction of the future out there? OK, great! Then go RIGHT NOW and retire the million dollar that is waiting for you. Otherwise, you can't be credible.

There is no truth behind astology, palmistry, numerology, etc. People like to know the future so many of them are attracted to people who purport to be able to tell the future (for a fee).
As for astrology, what are they going to do now that Pluto has been demoted from being a planet? After all, the planets are supposed to have influence over us. Oops, back to the drawing board.

How are they able to predict the future?
They dont. Read any horoscope. pick any sign and treat it as yours. They are written so vage and generally that you can read into it just about whatever you want and make it fit some aspect of your life. They are predicting nothing.
Whats the truth behind it all?
The truth is there is no truth to it. Astrology is a false science. YOu want to know more about astrology. take your question to religeon and spirituality.
this is astroNOMY
not astroLOGY

the truth behind astrology,palmistry,numerology...
Is simple:
The only truth is they exist to separate a fool from his money... and many are very good at doing just that.

Actually these people perform many numeric calculations to tell the future.See man its pure science.I will briefly say abt numerology as iam a numerologist.All people are influenced by cosmic vibrations that fill this universe.Even if you cant see with human eyes , it exists.A numerologist uses the date of birth as a tool to calculate the intensity of these vibrations.
You can verify whether this is true at this site

And check whether these calculations are correct.

Astrology is fake. None of it is real. At the end of the day I look at my horoscope in the paper just so I can laugh at how far off they were. If you believe that stuff, then it will be true, because you will try to make it true.

The truth about it?
It doesn't work. Such things rely on broad generalizations and the desire that most people feel to believe in it.

They cannot. Each astrologer will say something different about the same chart.
