horoscopes


Question Posted Wednesday January 9 2008, 8:32 pm

i always read the horoscopes in the back of seventeen & cosmo girl magazine. my friends read their horoscopes too, and these things actually happen to them! but nothing ever happens to me, like it'll say something about love, and guess what nothing happens. are these things acurate? tomorrow is suppose to be a "lucky" day for me, i don't think anything good will happen but there's still a part of me thats telling me you never know what can happen. do you believe in horoscopes?

horoscopes are bullshit, to put it bluntly.
nothing they say is true unless you want it to be true.
if you approach tomorrow feeling lucky, then you will probably feel luckier in the end (as you will subconsciously notice the lucky parts of the day, and ignore/excuse the unlucky parts.)
so no.
i don't "believe" in horoscopes.

horoscopes are made for fun
some people actually believe them, but they aren't true
mostly the writers make it vague enough to apply to alot of people at the same time and its mostly a coincedense
you don't need something telling you whats going to happen in your life anyways, its better when its a surprise

I don't particularly believe in horoscopes. Just for fun I'll read them, but in no means go by it or hold my expectations to it. In fact, I usually read mine first and then a few others. I've found that doing that showed me just how general horoscopes are. I began to think that horoscopes were just generalized and made so that they could apply to anyone. In most cases, since I've tried it on other people, I was right.

My point is, don't get caught up about what horoscopes say. Your own life is what you make it. If some of your friends read a horoscope and have something like that happen to them, then it is probably because they tend to be self-fulfilling and are presented to you in such a way that you automatically search your entire day/week to find an event that matched, just to say 'Wow, they were right about that happening'.

You decide what is going to happen, because if even if horoscopes were as true as they claim to be, whether or not you read it wouldn't make a difference on how the day turned out. If it did, then most likely it was self-fulfilling because you read and expected it to happen. Hope that helped.
