Well surprisingly based on this particular definition I would have to say it matches my personality pretty well. Im not a zodiac/horoscope person who depends on and believes in it but I do think they can sometimes be interesting to read. Being the psych major that I am, I see horoscopes in relation to the whole "self fufilling prophecy" idea where you read the horoscope and think something is going to happen therefore you look for it and when something remotely happens thats similar you're like "ah hah!". The future is so unpredictable that we find comfort in being able to read what is going to happen or have some reassurance of who we are. We like to label ourselves so much because identity is so important to us. Another reason I don't buy into the whole horoscope thing is because people are so variable and diverse that coming up with a few categories and placing millions of people under each category and saying they are all like "this" and that "this" will happen to exactly all of them on any given day makes no sense. But people are easily manipulated because we are so self centered. When we read horoscopes we aren't thinking "so 5 million of us cancers are going to meet our true love today" we are thinking "omg I am going to meet my true love today". It seems silly but we know we do that all the time. Its okay to enjoy reading things like this - its fun too - but I wouldn't take them too seriously as I believe the only one in charge of who you are, how your day is, who you meet and fall in love with is yourself.
