horrorscope

as of late, i've been interested in astrological origins -- how'd it start, where did the interpretations begin, etc. basically, i've learned that astrologers practiced this art to predict weather and eventually moved on to natural disasters. as predictions began to prove accurate, astrologers took a bold step into the realm of social/personal predictions. this form or avenue of astrology captivates its believers with personality profiles and predictions regarding everything from love to finances.

i still don't fully comprehend this practice: we figure out who we are, where we're from, what's going to happen, etc., etc., all from the stars, moon, and sun -- inanimate objects that most astrologers claim were formed from nothing...naturally evolved...chaotically exists in a universe we practically know nothing about...how can all these accurate predictions and interpretations be derived from chaos...purpose derived from purposelessness...

and at the same time, i've read horoscopes and am astounded at the accuracy of some of the interpretations from the stars above. how can we rely on such inanimate, unloving, distant, unknown, pieces of rock that for all we know no longer exist??? and people think christians are foolish to rely on god. i think we all, to a certain extent, unreasonably rely on someone or something....
