If so, why ? tell your experience.

There's also a poll to make people angry.

I don’t believe in horoscopes for anything except people wasting their time thinking the movement of stars and planets can somehow affect if you’re going to get to screw Donna Easy down the road.

No. Look up the Barnum effect to get an idea of why it's all bullshit.

Your experience?

How many experiences do you think suppose most people seriously avail themselves?   Do you suppose there would be selection bias?   How many is a statistically significant sample?

The most logical explanation is that the position of certain planets affect earth's population.
Not having enough scientific knowledge to detect the well observed effect does not mean it doesn't exist, notice solar flares and their direct effect on earth.

Just like I told "no one"; solar flares are an example of space objects (like the sun) affect earth. I mean it makes sense; all planets have gravity and cosmic properties coming out of it. Maybe the ancients had better knowledge of cosmology, and horoscopes is one of the conclusions.

The crackpipe I use is called science, something that many insist to ignore when they form opinions.
Being born under a star sign= being born in a certain time of the year.
Certain time of the year = certain climate.
Science proved that planetary orbits affect climate.
Not crackpipe if you ask me.
