There is a certain pull that astrology and horoscopes have on people. Maybe this is due to the feeling of being able to have some entirely non committal reason for the things that happen around us. The idea that the sun, moon and stars are responsible for your current predicament, is tempting. Some have even made a living out of doing this. The best ones dated back to centuries ago and has still amazed the world to this day.

This is a very broad subject that covers the movement of constellations and planets and how they can predict things. One of the more new age astrologers is a woman who used to be a writer. Linda Goodman astrology has become famous for putting books on the subject in the New York times bestsellers list.

Goodman started out as a writer then proceeded to become an astrologist. She wrote so much material regarding star and sun signs, poems relating to the planets and so on. Coincidentally, or not, there are many uncanny parallels from what she writes to what her readers experience and know. These are for matters such as personality and relationships.

There used to be so many scenarios that are likely to happen back when the book was written in the 60s. This has changed over time due to the evolution of cultural and societal norms. One thing that has not changed is the on going debate whether or not astrology is a legitimate form of study.

The concepts and practices that people do, mentioned in her writing, are not exactly up to date and may not be received well by the current generation. Nonetheless, Considering the possibility of these prophecies may be able to let you be more perceptive of their surrounding. It is best to take in the good from the information gathered and be mindful of the bad.

Sure, they may not be all true and on point, but let the good traits you have that the astrological charts say be true to you. It may be best not to see it as something factual than more of a guideline. Use the benefit of our tendency to lean on to certain opinions due to confirmation bias for encouragement instead.

Relationships based on zodiac signs are also what many readers look for when the astrology comes up. They are supposed to tell you if two people are a good match depending on their sign. Believing everything said about your relationship for fear that it may be doomed if you do not can cause a lot of anxiety. Better if this is used as a guideline to look at the relationship in a different light.

Give it the benefit of the doubt. If reading your horoscope can give you some sense of peace about what may come ahead, then by all means go do that. Just remember not to put all your faith and trust on prophecy and put in some work to make what you want come true.

May it be tarot card reading and birth charts, believing in these things is a personal choice. Always keep in mind that there is logic and reason behind many events if you look close enough. If practicing astrology and other matters pertaining to this has become a way of life and is generally helpful to you then there is no reason to be swayed by skeptics.
