Do you believe astrology, zodiac signs, and horoscopes hold truth and value?

Why or why not? Is it because of your spirituality? Is it because of your experience?

I believe they hold some entertainment value. I certainly do not take any of life's actions based on them. I haven't had any significant correlation between them and my life.

Why not? Because I've yet to see evidence of it.

I do not believe in horoscopes and the like. To me, it can blind you to the opportunities that are around you if you just look.

Hmm . . interesting question. Truth and value . . . from experience I have to say that an accurate birth chart done by a professional is uncanny in describing an individual's natural inclination personality. I would even go so far to say that, in general, it presents an excellent natural inclination psychological profile also - simply based on the subtle energy/gravity/magnetism influences associated with how the nearby observable heavenly bodies are aligned at time and place of an individual's birth. My experience is not only in comparing my own birth chart to myself, but those of others to them, as well. A good chart can be used to understand strengths and work on what could otherwise become weaknesses.

What I find most fascinating about Astrology however, is the continuity of it. Astrology was science in the early days of our species - the result of our ancient ancestors observing the night sky, and keeping records over long periods of time, establishing patterns that correlated to the world around them, interpreting them in a variety of ways. The fact is that many of our constellations still bear the names given by those early scientists. Our science of Astronomy evolved out of the earlier science of Astrology. I am in awe of the history of that evolution. Even so, Astrology continues to exist in the form in which we know it today, and it too has evolved and become an increasingly large body of accumulated knowledge.
