Why trust your horoscopes?
That’s a good question because there are so many reasons why any zodiac sign can give answers to life’s questions. If one is not sure about trusting a certain type of religion, they have the choice to look beyond the stars and the planets in the sky. In today’s time, it’s become more common for millennials to look into their horoscope as to why they behave the way they do in certain aspects of life. This person is “such a Pisces” because they’re so emotional. This person is “such a Libra” because of their inability to decide. This person is “such a Leo” because of how confident they appear at a party. Even if you’re someone who prefers not to put money on their constellations for an explanation, here are a few as to why others do believe in your horoscope/zodiac sign.
Looking at the psychology aspect of horoscopes and zodiac signs (even though it is astrology, it’s not really considered a science), the planets and the stars are aligned a certain way the day you were born. That’s where your sun sign, as well as your moon and ascending signs, come in. if you don’t know what your moon or rising (ascending) signs are, they can be identified based on the day, time, and place of your birth. Your sun sign is the one that you’re commonly associated with in terms of your personality. Your moon sign is your emotional side and moves quickly around the zodiac than the sun. Your ascendant sign represents the mask you wear in public, and how you react in social situations. Certain planets, including the moon and the sun, rule one to two zodiac signs. Those that rule a single sign, such as Leo to the Sun and Cancer to the moon, are considered to be very distinguished from the other signs ruled by two planets. To the believers in astrology Believe in the gravity of the planets and how it can shape us.
In a sense, astrology really does work. The stars and what they can tell you can help you find any sort of balance in all aspects of your life. Since zodiac signs show your positive and negative attributes, they can be used as a reminder to be mindful of their intentions and find even more ways to better yourself. For example, if you fall in the stereotype of a moody Pisces (kind of like me) or a stubborn Taurus, reading a daily guide can help spotlight the reasons for your misfortunes, and can help you learn from them. You can learn from it and drags you further away from being categorized in said horoscope.
Adding on to that, reading and learning more about the zodiac signs can take one away from the stereotypes that are commonly associated with each one. This can also prevent you from falling too deep into that stereotype. For example, with Aries being the first sign in the zodiac circle are indicated as being more “fiery,” but that doesn’t mean they lack all self-control. This just means they have high initiative and want to be that spark to liven the party up. In addition, just because Sagittarius loves trying new things, that doesn’t mean they’re afraid of commitment. They just want to experience those new things and get to know the world, but they remember where they come from.
Speaking from someone who’s been in this sort of position, your zodiac sign can be that hand on your shoulder that you need to get out of a dark place. When you’re young, you’re experiencing both the great things as well as the not so great things especially when you’re in college. And sometimes, you don’t know how to get a grip of the not so great things and, like myself, it can take a toll on you one way or another. Your horoscope gives you a legitimate thing to believe in which is really hope to raise if you’re having trouble with school or fighting any personal demons that may be surrounding you. It acts as your personal indicator, and no one else’s. The daily advice you can seek out of it just knows exactly what to say, no matter how different a situation may be.
Another great thing about looking in your zodiac sign is the society that surrounds it. Believing in astrology really knows no age, and it’s become so much more popular in today’s times that it has its own community. To be able to connect and bond with someone on such a spiritual level can bring out a deeper understanding of how you connect with other signs and how they connect with you.
And, especially being in the social media age, platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have especially become tools for young astrologers to share their wisdom, and possibly help someone else in their time of need. The world of zodiacs shows no judgment because it looks inside your soul rather than the external parts of you. The stars already know you’re worthy, and the initiative is to help you look deep inside yourself to find the answers you’ve been lacking. There may especially be less you know about yourself the younger you are, which can be really tough in terms of growing up. But now, we’re past the point of more people looking at listeners of astrology as if they had a giant tattoo on their forehead with “crazy” in big bold letters. People have become a lot more open about, among other things, listening to what the stars have to say.
