All the supernaturalness lately got me thinking... Do you believe in astrology/follow it?

I don't really...but many times when I've been curious enough to read it, I've found that it's correct. Therefore, it makes me wonder.

I believe it in its true form (the sign under which you were born, the rising signs/moons, etc) but I don't believe in horoscopes.

Have you tried reading the other signs on the same day? I bet most of those are correct, too.

Sometimes, I'll just go through all of them, and see that 75% or more are "correct" for me. They're designed that way.

I remember reading a popular classroom project where the professor makes a unique horoscope for each person, and passes them out to everyone. Then he asks them to raise their hands if they think it's accurate. Almost everyone raises their hands, since they think they got a horoscope written for them specifically. He then tells the class that all the papers handed out say the exact same thing.

That's an interesting study--but yes, I've done that. Like I said, I rarely ever read them. I know that they can be crafted to be extremely general and vague, which is why I tend to not believe in them. However, sometimes the points are rather specific, which I find interesting.
