Astrology: how do the stars etc influence our lives?

Don't expect to get a sensible answer from people that believe horoscopes. They have no explanation for it and every test done into its effectiveness has failed.

Hmmm are you trying to say that ignorance is not a bliss? :)) If so I totally agree with you, but no matter how many philosophical question you are going to ask ppl with the 13th sign obsession will come again and again cause it seems easier to read or hear something that someone else made up and then to repeat it like a parrot with no valid arguments whatsoever instead of using a minimal effort to use their minds, to make some research, to open a book, to use google in order to gather some info so they can give a proper reasoning to their statement. Well you have to agree that the Astrology is a complex matter and it looks more like a fine tool to me. A tool which comprises at least two natural sciences - astronomy and math and requires some special skills from its practitioners - interpretation skills, gift of gab, vast general culture and psychological knowledge and/or intuition and lots of inspiration and passion ab astrology so they can combine all of the above and translate their knowledge into something meaningful for the non-astrologers like me. Instead of pondering on the matter if it is possible a 13th, 14th, 15th sign to exist, as a very lazy person with a mere idea what astrology is i just wait for the professional astrologers to discover them - so far no one is willing to announce such a revolutionary discovery and i presume that there are no sufficient proofs or nothing to be discovered whatsoever :P (Am i making any sense so far ? :)) ) Anyway if one has doubts that astrology is false he/she is very welcome to prove it otherwise its just a childish way to look "oh so very original" and alas ignorant.

"So ""it's all rubbish"" responses are not informative."

Sorry, but it is not possible, in <<any>> way, for the stars or planets to have any influence over peoples' lives. That's it. Period. Full stop. Any "influence" is simply due to people reacting to something they believe, not because it was actually predicted or foreordained.

You may not like that answer, but what you like has nothing to do with the fact that astrology <<is>> all rubbish.

In terms of it being a good day for job hunting because Uranus is in trine with the gas works, it's a load of old codswallop. On the other hand, if you compile a load of data over a few thousand years, there's a good chance you'll recognise trends based upon when and where people were born and the world going through yearly, monthly and other cycles. Before the days of atomic clocks and Universal Standard Time, the stars were the best clock and calendar we had.

Our fate is not decided by the stars. We are the makers of our own destiny. There is nothing beyond this world. You need to study philosophy and sciences in order not to fall prey to astrology.

Astrology is a total load of rubbish. That's the only answer you require.

&quot;I do not believe in astrology&quot; Enough said.

the asspect also will affect

you should suck a big one
