We don't choose our fates. Our destiny chooses us. Stoic, I know.
My opinion.

In my opinion, we are responsible for our fate. We choose our fate and we have to accept it because it's our actions that causes it.
Yes.
Actions causes reactions and reactions either produce either conflict or some things like that. And because of that, your actions are the ones that causes it and you have to be responsible for it.
Predict the future? Did you the the article on msn that had scientifically says," if you think about the past, you will know whats going to happen next in the future"? It's true, think about it.
About predictors.. I think that they use the same method or anything like that, it's hard to explain. I'll have to see you in person to talk about this anyway, but I can't, so I guess that this will help you some how.
ps: I just live day to day. NO PLANS!

Personally, I think it's a 50/50 proposition.
I think there's destiny at play...certain things WILL happen to us at certain times.
But I also think our decisions and reactions to certain things also have influence.
Now, some may argue that the decisions we made or how we reacted to certain situations may in and of themselves be pre-ordained. But I don't think that's the neceesarily the case.
I tried for the longest time to wrap my head around what happened during September 11th. I wondered why almost three thousand innocent people woke up that morning,,,just to die. How would a mercifukl, loving God permit this to happen?
I've had ecclesiastical types and brilliant educators and New Age metaphysicians argue several different points, but I think that it all comes down to timing..wrong place, wrong time.
I guess I've learned to accept what that old bumper sticker says...you know the one...."Sh*t Happens". Sometimes, it just does. No rhyme, no reason, no real explanation.
Luck of the draw....circumstance...Things just happen and sometimes bad things happen to very good people...sometimes good things happen to bad people.
It's the unpredictable ying and yang of life. I know this doesn't make it any easier. But sometimes, we have the power to affect change..to prevent horrific things from happening. Sometimes we can't.
Thought, I wish to God, we as humans, could

You just have to accept what will happen to you know one can choose their fate unless they choose whether or not to do something stupid or something smart
all predictors are liars and they are only out to prey on vulnerable people that are willing to let go of their monies

The fact is, we all DO choose. Already. There's nothing else that we CAN do except choose.
On the other hand, being responsible and accountable for the choices we make -- now THAT opens a pandora's box.

You can choose your own fate.
Example: Do you want to drink the water? Or do you want to be thirsty?
You can pretty much decide how you want your life to go.
Others will influence you and you will act on it.
The only thing is death...that is another question all together.

I believe .we can't decide our own fate, that's what predictions are for. but the greatest thing to do is to except our fate and move on. I can't really explain this.

Yes I believe in fate and I also believe that we can change our fate. It would be destiny if you planned to change destiny... IT takes few people to actually understand that.
Fate takes you to your ENDING. IT only takes you there far enough and then when you get to the last two steps in life, it leaves you there to judge and change and control your life. You make the last step in life fate takes you there.

Fate is the study of the past and reincarnation. In Astrology when we discuss reincarnation, we are referring to the belief that the core of every human being is reconfigured into a new person but that the person, separated from the flesh, has a long-term relationship with the planets and stars. Many failed to learn lessons in past lives and Astrology helps us to identify these lessons so that we may focus our energy and gauge our behavior more accurately for universal progression.
Fate is a fixed decree by which the order of things is prescribed, an immutable or inevitable law of the universe. It is the force by which all existence is determined and the closed set of an individual's lot in life. Fate encompasses all arranged or predetermined events from your past, spanning through time and the universe.
Your fate is determined at the time of your birth based on the motion and position of the planets. It is a prescription or a suggestion of the shape of things to come. When we are born we're given certain characteristics; it's up to us as individuals to decide what to do with or about them.
You can certainly change the outcome of your fate. However, you must always be aware of and contend with the astrological hand you are dealt at the time of your birth. Fate always allows for free choice; nothing in Astrology can ever take this choice away from you.
Never resign yourself to letting fate run its course if it makes you unhappy. Never give up your free will. The final decision is always yours. You always have an active role and the final word on every activity you undertake in your lifetime. Astrology doesn't just happen to you; you make it happen.
Understanding our fate helps us to set realistic goals for ourselves. If you are born in Canada, chances are very slim that you will be the King or Queen of England. Of course the final outcome of your life is in your hands, but fate helps us set realistic goals for ourselves by encouraging us to take into consideration immutable factors that we cannot change.
The components of Karmic Astrology that determine your fate are Retrograde, Anaretic, Declination and the IC. Retrograde tells us to look at the different motions of the planets, to slow down and think. The Anaretic Degree helps us to understand what obstacles we need to overcome based on the planets passing through the Signs. As the planets rise and fall on the celestial equator, Declination becomes another factor of planetary karma that we need to consider. The IC asks us to consider our past and our heritage and to consider how these factors shape our characteristics. Finally, the Angles make up the major points in our natal charts; they provide insight into the history of us at our births.
