Do you read your daily horoscope?

Hi,

Do you read your daily horoscope? Do you take it seriously? I did something to my Google home page yesterday and it's now giving me my horoscope:

I don't really read it that much. It never seems to be right - I think I've been slated to win millions or pick up countless amounts of ladies for years now :)

Hi Alan,

I don't believe a word of what horoscopes 'predict'. I've recently developed an interest in astronomy and have thus had dealings with astrology too.
In fact, even if stars and planets have an effect on your life/fate/etc., astrology is not in sync with astronomy regarding the position of the sun. The zodiac dating was established corresponding to the arrangement of the constellations around 300 BC and the stars have drifted a lot since then. I'm supposed to be Taurus, but the Sun was actually in Aries when I was born :)

Could you tell me if the expressions in red sound fine?

[Alan]

Hi Sis,

Yes, the comments in red are fine.

Thanks for your contribution.

Alan
