Horoscope is the term used to describe an astrological diagram or chart that represents positions of the Moon, Sun, sensitive angles, planets and other astrological aspects at a certain time of an event. It is often used to look at birthdays. The word itself is derived from Greek words meaning a look at the hours. Monthly horoscopes are predictions that are given to all the signs of the zodiac for each month.

Numerous websites, magazines and newspapers have columns that are used for these predictions and based on celestial influences that relate to the zodiac placement of Sun on the birth date of a person. Zodiac is primarily used to reference patterns or configurations of creatures that are seen in the stars. The great circle that the sun goes around over the course of the year is known as the zodiac belt. As it travels along this circle, it transmits and receives various energies. There are twelve signs of the zodiac: Cancer, Capricorn, Scorpio, Virgo, Pisces, Aquarius, Gemini, Aries, Taurus, Sagittarius, Libra and Leo.

Signs may be deemed positive or negative, passive or active, or masculine or feminine. The signs considered feminine: Scorpio, Cancer, Capricorn, Pisces and Virgo. The masculine signs are Aries, Leo, Aquarius, Libra, Gemini and Sagittarius. People fall under the sign that fits with their date of birth. An individuals whose birth date is on or near the cut-off calendar dates for a sign may be referred to as: on the cusp.

The horoscopes can be written as a prediction for a day, week or month. Individuals look at the text paired with their sign. There are people who do not believe in these things. This is primarily because there is little evidence. Non-believers often feel as though the text is so broad in its meaning that it could be applied to nearly anyone. In fact, many believe pseudoscience is how this information is received.

This field also has many believers who support and follow horoscopes. In fact, they may read them daily. Sometimes their beliefs become self-fulfilling prophecies in which the horoscopes actually do come true.

Typically these predictions cover multiple topics. That is, there will be information about love and relationships, work and careers, personal struggles, money and finances, and aspirations and goals. Sometimes the horoscope will advise the people to behave in a certain way. Astrologers are usually the individuals who write these predictions based on their studies and special techniques. However, there are non-professionals who make these predictions as well.

Astrology has been used by many civilizations across several centuries and has remained a controversial topic. The field is rooted in ancient times, and there is not much science to support its validity. In some cases, people confuse astrology and astronomy. The latter is the science that involves the physical study of celestial phenomena. There are not many who are skeptics of this field because it is, in fact, a science.

The elements of astrology reach beyond science to exam correlations that are not explainable through modern science. Monthly horoscopes are the textual predictions, regarding life events, that are made for people under each of the zodiac signs. These may be in newspapers, magazine or websites. No scientific evidence is available to support this field.
