Do You Believe In Astrology?

[Mr Bleak]

I posted this over on another thread, but perhaps it really belongs here.
For anyone who wants a complete workup of your personal astrology, just enter your birthdate, exact time and place:

This will tell you everything you'll ever need to know about yourself - your rising signs, moon signs, the position of all the planets at the moment of your birth, and how they affect you.
I have to say they are right about me!

I have tried this . I am afraid that I found it very contradictory........I learnt that I do not have enough confidence, but rise higher higher and control others, with a predisposition to leadership . Perhaps I am not inputting my birth details correctly.

" The ruler of the Ascendant (Pluto) in Virgo

These people always use their common sense when they act. They do not have enough confidence. They respect details of any work with meticulous precision and great care.

The ruler of the Ascendant (Pluto) in the 10th House

These people rise higher and higher and they control others. Predisposition to leadership or to influence others."

This is just about astrologers' predictions not regarding support for any candidate.

We're Election Astrologers. Here's Who We Predict Will Win The 2024 Race.​

Astrologers who interpret planets for a living are seeing surprises in November.

This July, the world was stunned when President Joe Biden announced he was dropping his reelection bid and endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, as his successor. At less than four months before Election Day, the announcement was a seismic shock in American politics ― but not for many astrologers.

Some claim they had seen signs of this exact scenario in Harris’ and Biden’s natal charts, which is an astrological tool based on where the planets were in the sky at the time of one’s birth. They had been telling their followers for years about how Harris’ star was rising and Biden’s was falling and, in some cases, predicted the correct weekend that a dramatic political event would happen because of the full moon. For them, it had long been Joe-ver.

“Astrologers have been seeing illness show up in Biden’s chart for many years,” astrologer Catherine Urban, who made a June prediction that Biden’s health was at risk this year and that Harris might be endorsed by Biden, told HuffPost.

Mo, an astrologer who co-hosts the “Fixed Astrology” podcast and asked to not share her full name because of her full-time job, predicted that Harris would be a “wartime president” in May. Mo told HuffPost that she has been seeing Harris “come to power under really difficult circumstances” as Harris has an “enemies of the moon configuration” in her fall solar return that indicates that people will be slandering her. Mo explained that this happens, in part, when a planet such as Mars or Saturn — which are associated with challenging periods in your life — is making a “difficult aspect” to the moon. “Difficult aspect” is astrology-speak for when planets create a geometric angle with each other that suggests you are going through strife.

Even if you do not believe in astrology’s power, there are many others who are compelled by the stories written in the stars. Go on TikTok and you will see astrologers’ Election Day predictions ― including which candidate might die and which will win ― rack up tens of thousands of views. As one commenter put it on a TikTok that accurately predicted Biden not winning the election: “This is my whole FYP [for you page] AND I CAN’T GET ENOUGH.” ...

Interesting, I dabbled with it when younger and did see some coincidences which surprised me. Makes sense I suppose more people paying attention to it nowadays...can get a quick fix today with modern technology.

I basically don’t look at the “ today’s horoscope “ but for Taurus it told me not to be frustrated and go and watch television.

So I am watching television.

Not like me, again I looked at “toddy’s horoscope” and it tells me my family is getting along better.

That basically is so general it means nothing.

I can do better at telling stories.

The one thing that does make me question whether there's something in astrology, is the specificity of my star sign personality profile. It matches me to a T, and it certainly isn't a generic profile that could apply to anyone. My other family members seem to match their personality profiles, but I don't match their profiles, if that makes sense?

It's not something I naturally incline towards believing in however.
