Astrology used as a predictive engine obviously doesn’t work. Anyone using it that way is using it improperly IMO. It’s more like procedurally generated advice. For example, mine says there’s a conflict between old and new, and to embrace change while drawing on past lessons. Super vague, can apply to anyone. But it resonates and gives me something to focus on. That’s really all there is to it. Trying to “prove” it doesn’t work is like trying to “prove” wrestling is fake. That’s not the point, man.

It is advertised as such, so I hope you can forgive those using it improperly after being mislead by those pushing the practice.
It is at best a placebo and at worst a life destroying belief. Self reflection and keeping long term journals is far better for what you use Astrology for than Astrology.
Yes, of course. Just watch anyone that takes horoscopes seriously. They adjust their lives based on fiction, often for the worse. You want the dozens of times I’ve seen idiots do stupid shit? Nah, just go look in the mirror for that.
Some people do seem to really act on this stuff though. There’s enough people talking about Mercury being in retrograde and asking other people about their star signs for that to be proven.

Have any cases of life-destroying choices that can be attributed to astrology?
You are free to search “Astrology ruined my life” and comb through the information yourself and then come back to me if you need examples.

What crawled up your ass and died? Are you an asshole in purpose, or does it just come naturally?

People are also talking about John Cena’s heel persona as though it represents anything tangible to reality. Where’s the harm though?
