Numerology often claims that the numbers derived from your name contain information about your personality. The only way this makes sense is if you believe you were predestined to have the name you were given.\n\n"Just what do you think the numerical odds are either (a) that a set of numbers associated with the letters of your name and your birth date will reveal who you are and what you should do with your life, or (b) that someone in personnel has figured out how to read those numbers? I'd say the odds are about zero. Nevertheless, numerology shouldn't be brushed off without a thorough examination of its underlying theory. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any. We are just supposed to take Mr. Goodwin's word for it that numerology works, even though we have no idea how it works. That is, numerologists can produce a 'reading' for you, just as astrologers, biorhythmists and Myers-Briggs can. And you will be amazed at how 'accurate' the reading is! You may not even be aware at how selective your thinking has become as you are dazzled by the accuracy of your reading." \n\nMuch more information at the link below.

Well, as a fellow Scorpio, I can tell you I get this alot too. People are just superstitious - according to horoscope lore, Scorpios are supposed to be dark, mysterious, and I swear I'm not making this up, the most sexual of all the signs. Needless to say, when one is born really during the calendar year shouldn't be used to make prejudgements about people, other than when you need to get someone a birthday present. :)

Horoscopes are a fantasy that means nothing. They cannot predict the future, they cannot say anything about your personality. No studies of astrology have demonstrated any truth in it at all. Sorry to burst your bubble. You're better of using your time to study things that are real.

Sometimes they're uncanny in their accuracy; other times they hit a bit off the mark. Nearly always, horoscopes are good entertainment. But Astrology is far more complex than a daily horoscope-and it's not just for fun. \n\nContrary to its popular but erroneous reputation as a New Age subject, Astrology is actually an ancient science that predates both astronomy and psychology. Studied and used throughout the world for thousands of years, Astrology is the study of the interactions among the Stars and the Planets, based on intricate mathematical cycles.\n\nThe earliest known astrological records date back to Babylon, 1645 BC, and the earliest horoscope to 410 BC. Astrology's origins can also be traced to several other locations and cultures, including Egypt, which developed sophisticated timekeeping and calendar science; Greece, where Ptolemy authored influential astrological and astronomical texts; and Rome, where many of the most learned men-including two emperors-were astrologers who wrote laws and counseled citizens based on the Stars.\n\nDuring the Renaissance, when literacy became more widespread, almanacs began publishing astrological information for public consumption. Several notable figures of the era, including Galileo and Copernicus, were both practicing astrologers and founders of the modern scientific movement. Despite the seemingly easy relationship between Astrology and science, however, Astrology began to lose popular credibility when myriad predictions about the great conjunction of 1524 failed to "come true."\n\nAs the Scientific Revolution surged and astronomy gained respect, Astrology and various other arts fell by the wayside. Many individuals still practiced the art, however, and Astrology enjoyed small revivals in England in the 17- and 1800s. But it wasn't until the birth of Princess Margaret in 1930 that Astrology once again found widespread popularity. That year, the London Sunday Express ran an astrological profile of the princess to celebrate her birth-and so began the modern newspaper horoscope column.\n\nIn the 1950s, French astrologers Michel and Françoise Gauquelin used sophisticated statistical studies to link the positions of the Planets to human nature. Others, such as Dane Rudhyar, have expanded the study of Humanistic Astrology.

I don't believe in them.\nHowever, astrology, such as personality wise, seems correct more often than not.

If someone did guess correctly, that's all it would be  -  just a guess.  Astrologers/psychics  get forecasts right sometimes simply because they can't guess wrongly all the time!

Mant people misunderstand astrology... when someone asks you for your sign, they are asking you for your sun sign, for instance October 29: Scorpio sun sign.  What people don't realize is that you have a total of eleven signs, the moon sign changes about every day and the ascendant changes every hour.. Any variant of more than a degree north or south (or east or west) will affect the degree to which the sign affects you, for example Sun: August 24- 1 deg Virgo, while September 22- 30 deg Virgo, which places greater and lesser attributes accordingly.  Now, factor in genetics, environment, education opportunites, etc. and you have  large group of people who have the same base personality traits, but applied in very different means, with some having been repressed or eliminated altogether of the individual's will.

Hmmmm... I'm not sure... I'm Capricorn and though I can be reserved and contemplative, I'm just as equally crazy, silly and complicated! Teehee :D\n\nI guess zodiac signs aren't as accurate as we think :)

This is hard to answer.  I personally enjoy astrology.  I have been reading and studying it for years.  I do like to find out people's sign after meeting them, but I do not use it to make decisions as to who I date or become friends with. (Also, astrology is much more complicated than sun signs alone)  Interestingly enough, the majority of the men I have dated have fallen under a particular grouping of signs ( 3 different signs in total) and I was interested before I found out their sign.  While I like to analyze people using astrology, It cannot possibly take the place of practical factors such as common sense, wisdom, experience, gut instinct, emotions etc. when making decisions.  Love is far too complicated to sum up in a simple compatibility chart of 2 sun signs.

Nope. Did you know all the Zodiac signs are based on a geocentric conception? the earth at rest in the center and the planets and the sun going aroun it ...and even if they were right , how can the position of a planet can be able to predict the personality you are going to have?..it's really ilogical, it's dumb. Well, I supposse the seasons and the generation you were born at could influence somehow but to believe blindly in that must be a horrible way to spend your life.

People turn to horoscopes in an attempt to explain the personality and tendencies or possible outcomes...\n\nMost of the terminology is folded into Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicators...\n\nMyers-Briggs is often confused with astrology because it so closely describes personality...\n\nMyers-Briggs is actually the collaboration btw a student of Jung's and her daughter and son-in-law\n\nA horoscope is a start if it puts you on a journey to discover your personality\n\nWhile the sun and moon exert a lot of influence on our planet everything from Circadian rhythms and gravity to tides and menstrual rhythms, the other planets are not large enough or close enough to make much of an impact\n\nA nicely-plotted horoscope is a thing of beauty...I don't know that it has much value except as the artist can draw out a person's personality and which has less to do with a star-chart and more to do with being perceptive\n\nNothing in your question, at face value, will help you

Feb 18th.  As I am on the cusp of Aquarius/Pisces i find that I'm a bit like each sign.  But I don't believe that the horoscope dictates my personality at all.  It's a coincidence

I believe in the zodiac signs and their meanings as far as every person that falls up under his/her sign. I don't read my horoscope much, but I do study about the different signs. I think the zodiac sign meanings are right on point. You will probably have some people make comments like it's all a bunch of crap, but it's funny that these same people that don't believe in this stuff are always in the horoscopes section all the time. If a person doesn't believe in this stuff it's kind of stupid to be here looking and posting all the time right???

Gemini are good there are always good and bad sign to all zodiac.\n\nHowever, Geminis are the first ones to change personalities.\nGeminis mean well but they can't help being them which is most of the time undecided.\n\nBe Careful not to tick them off.
