Does people in your country trust astrology in personal affairs like marriage???

In my country 90% of the hindus consult an astrologer, compare the position of stars and planets at the time of birth of both the bride and groom to be.

And if they match, parents allow the man and woman to talk.

And also in India people believe that if a girl is born when the planet Mars is in seventh zodiac, whoever she marry will die young.

Astrology is a million dollar Industry in India.

Have you ever noticed that you can relate to EVERY sign’s attributes? It’s a different type of religion. Like tarot.

Yes. but I cannot convince my friends and family who believe in this.

When people ask me what my sign is always tell them I'm a cesarean

I tell mine is a Dragon.

Anything that makes you certain, to do a good thing, is a good thing.

Too many people are just opportunists who spot a better looking woman, with a smaller or bigger bum, and smaller or bigger boobs, and there goes both people's plans for life and their histories go the same way as their futures.

It's fun to think about but not highly regarded in the states.

My mother did have a full chart done on me when I was born. It's ridiculously accurate but I'd be embarrassed to cite it as anything other than coincidence.

I only use astrology to suit my purposes. If a woman thinks Cancers are a good match for her, I use that. Otherwise it's a a pseudo science.

A lot of women I know do, but for the most part Most critical thinking people know it's just a crock of sh*t

It is not prevalent in the western countries, more as a hobby and fun pastime than anything else. This may have something to do with our country's Christian Judeo beginnings.

It would be interesting to have statistics on the outcome of these astrology readings. As I understand it (my knowledge is limited) these readings include health, wealth, and length of life.

I wonder how many girls of Mars married, and what the outcome was.

I think most of it is a self-fulfilling prophecy. 🙂

In our country, parents will not let you marry a girl with this MARS problem out of fear. 😛

Is everyone in your country guaranteed an astrology reading at birth?

Anyone with parent or grandparent from your country who live in the west, would they be guaranteed and astrology reading at birth or is it possible some may not?

The biggest crap is.. Sun and moon are planets..
Even after all these hungama a marriage fails, the astrologer or astrology is not questioned why. So it's a billion dollar business.

A few people in this country might take astrology seriously in the USA, but not many. I would guess that the percentage is less than 5 percent.
