RE: do u believe in Horoscopes??
No I don't believe in them, mainly for the reason that they're written in one of two ways:
1. People from the magazine/newspaper are each asked what their star-sign is and what they want to happen to them, which is subsequently then published;
2. or individuals are paid ridiculous amounts of money to come up with the horoscopes by looking at the stars, it's a complete farse.
If everyone's horoscopes came true, the economy would be screwed up with so many people winning the lottery - how many people with Aries are there who would've won the lottery if they'd came true.
I've also got a suspicious feeling that some of the things that come true are down to the self-fulfilling prophecy. If you read something, then you're going to expect it to happen and behave in such a manner for these things to come true. For example, if a single person looking for a 'soul-mate' reads it and the horoscope says: "You will meet a tall, blonde haired stranger who is your soul-mate", they're going to be looking out for someone who's tall with blonde hair, once again how many people are there who fit that description? Hence the reason why some people may think they're real.
They're a waste of time, anything supernatural is just a little bit ridiculous.
