I will admit to liking to read my horoscopes in the papers and sometimes when I am bored, I read them online. The truth to the matter is, why would you want to know what will happen? Rather, why would you want to let a few lines in a paper or the internet or a magazine govern how you choose to do things just so that subconsciously, the horoscopes are made definite to come true. If you read "You will fall in love on the 14th," you will probably go out instead of staying at home as usual and actually do meet someone and convince yourself you are falling in love because the horoscope says so.
And hence this is where rests their intrigue. Horoscopes often come true because we choose to believe them and we lead our actions to make sure they come true.
The next time you want someone to read your palm or have tarot cards read, remmeber all the Greek and Roman mythologies of prophecies and oracles. Even Macbeth, remember Macbeth. Had he paid no heed to the three witches, he would not have worked so hard only to lead to his own demise. Therefore, it really is not something arcane and magical at work here. It is our lack of free will or rather, too much of our free will. It's an awesome notion.
So the next time you stare at the stars, remember how they are just gaseous entities in the universe, some of which have already exploded but since they are so far away, it takes so long for their last light to reach our eyes on Earth. Now that's truly amazing.
