Do you really believe in horoscopes?

No - it's a load of old codswallop, but then a Gemini would say that (the old ones are always the best!) grin

No not at all.
The law of averages will mean that some one on here today will have a correct reading but that would just be a lucky guess. If the future could be seen in the stars all readings in newspapers/ magazines/ on line etc etc would be more or less the same. Also why on earth afer all this time hasn't goverment put such things to the greater good, why waste such power as that.
Its all a load of codswallop.

No, I don't believe in them. It put me off when a young friend who had started to work for a local newspaper, had been given the job of inventing/writing the horoscopes each week! hmm

I do when they are good, but think its rubbish when I don't like what they say ;)

Apparently, 25% of Britons believe their future is in the stars! What a load of codswallop. Of course, by the law of probability they will sometimes make an accurate forecast, but they are usually so vague that they are meaningless.
