IS THERE SCIENCE BEHIND ASTROLOGY?
Scientists claim astrology is not yet proven and that the position of stars and planets is more accurately defined as astronomy.
Astronomy uses mathematics, physics, and chemistry in order to explain the origin and evolution of objects in the universe (including the moon, sun and planets).
Some, however, argue astrology is different and is a natural science too, as it deals with observations and prediction of events in the sky which influences human affairs and the natural world.
That being said, there’s said to be no conclusive evidence that astrology is backed by science, or that astrology is an accurate predictor of personality traits, future destinies or love lives, as written in Smithsonian Magazine.

The future looks so fascinating.
LEO

Colour to avoid: Black
Taurus – People with the Taurus star sign have a shared love of beautiful things, according to K C Gupta. And so you naturally choose the colours green, pink whites and blue.
Colour to avoid: Red
Libra – Libras love the Holi festival and have their celebrations all planned out. In order to match their organised personality, the expert says you should pick lavender, violet, and baby blues to spread the joy of the festival.

THE BLACK MOON CAN BOOST YOUR SEX LIFE
Black Moon Lilith is the point in the sky that marks the furthest point of the moon’s orbit around the earth.
Astrologers call Lilith the “dark moon.” Think unresting bitch face— the part of you that flips your lid when your chip your fresh manicure.
Knowing your Lilith’s zodiac sign can reveal the darker side of your sexuality and where you might start crushing just a little too hard on someone.
In an astrology chart, Lilith, also referred to as the Black Moon, represents a person’s primitive reactions and attitude – warts and all.Read more about it here.
WHICH CELEBS HAVE STAR SIGN TATTOOS?
Zodiac sign tattoos are one of the most popular ink choices especially among celebs.
Pop diva Rihanna adores the astrological art getting a glyph of her star sign Pisces tattooed behind her right ear in one of her first ink sessions.
Eco-superstar Jessica Alba also paid close attention to the tattoo trend using her children’s zodiac signs as inspiration to add to her collection of ink.
Free-spirited Sagittarius Miley Cyrus meanwhile opted to put her gorgeous glyph on the inside of her arm. Hopefully it protected her from all those wrecking balls!
WHAT ARE THE SYMBOLS FOR EACH STAR SIGN?
The bizarre little symbols we see next to our horoscopes known as glyphs, represent each zodiac sign.
While they may not immediately resemble virgins and crabs, each sign depicts the zodiac symbol it’s related to.
Some of the more obscure symbols include Virgo’s star sign associated with a maiden, represented by an ‘M’ shape.The two lines in Aquarius’s glyph are thought to represent water while lovers of balance, Libra are represented by a sunrise or a set of scales.
LET’S TALK ABOUT LILITH
We all know astrology involves studying the movements of the planets, as well as their mythology and overall meaning.
However, those aren’t the only things we need to know.
We know there are moons, rising signs and asteroids that play a vital role in understanding a person’s pysche, including their sex life – this is where little-known Lilith comes in.

WANT TO FIND YOUR MOON SIGN?
While your sun sign is easy to determine – based on the date you were born – it’s a little more complicated to work out your moon sign.
Your moon sign is determined by calculating your full date, place and time of birth and finding your position around the moon.
It moves quickly around the zodiac, visiting each sign for around two to two and a half days.
Your moon sign is likely to be different from your sun sign – i.e. you might be a Taurus, but your lunar sign might be in Sagittarius.Luckily, there are Moon Sign Calculators available online, such as this one from Lunarium, which can help you work out your sign.

THE BEST DIET BASED ON YOUR STAR SIGN
According to our resident Tarotscope reader Kerry King what you should be eating could be written in the stars.
She says: “There aren’t many of us who naturally enjoy and relish the idea of dieting, it’s hard to stick to something based on denial.
“However, you can give yourself a better chance of success if you can align your dieting technique to your star sign.
“The personality traits and strengths associated with each sign can lead to a great match with a particular diet that won’t turn you ALL the way off. No pain, no gain… but let’s ease the pain. Find out yours here.

ARE ‘ANGEL NUMBERS’ MORE THAN JUST A COINCIDENCE?
Some writers say that 11.11 indicates the presence of the spirit. For some, seeing 11:11 is an auspicious sign and the numbers have magical powers themselves.
Likewise, the number 333 has some different interpretations but it is also broadly thought to be a message from a guardian angel to tell you to keep going down the path you are.
It is thought to offer comfort, inner-strength and encouragement.
- Martha Cliff
WHY SEEING 1111 AND 333 MEANS YOU’RE READY TO RECEIVE
In a nutshell, these divine messages are said to be symbols that you’re ready for something to manifest in your life, but ultimately you must be open to receiving the messages and responding accordingly.
Don’t block it.
So, the next time you check your phone and have that “ok, this is getting weird now” feeling, think about your biggest aspirations and set your heart on them.

THE STAR SIGNS MOST LIKELY TO CHEAT
Kerry King has revealed the star signs who are most likely to cheat, so is your partner on the list?
According to the expert, Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Cancer, Gemini and Libra all fall on the ‘just can’t help it’ side of straying from relationships.
She says: “Aries, Leo and Sagittarius are all Fire signs, which means they are ruled, first and foremost, by their passions. They are lusty, spontaneous, dramatic, flirtatious, and attractive.
“Their sexual energy puts them in the danger zone for affairs, and their leaning towards living in the moment and following their heart (or other bits of their anatomy) makes them vulnerable to making bad choices.
“Cancer is a sucker for love, and needs huge amounts of loyalty and affection in relationships. If it’s not forthcoming at home, but is being served up elsewhere, then they are 100% tempted to head where their needs are being better met. They just need love. They are also SUPER-secretive.
“Gemini is an out-and-out rascal. Geminis love shiny new things, and hate to be tied down to any kind of routine or humdrum-ness, and that includes relationships. Geminis do it because they can, and because they believe if they can get away with it, then they should. YOLO.
“Libra is ruled by Venus, the goddess of love, and is the zodiac’s ~people pleaser~, AKA the f***boy of the cosmos.
“Librans love to be in love, are experts at flirting, enjoy all manner of sexual foreplay, and are programmed to focus on the thrill of the chase, more than the long-term commitment part. A classic heartbreaker.”

WHERE DOES THE ZODIAC COME FROM?
The Zodiac is the term used to describe the circle of 12 divisions of celestial longitude that are centred upon the path of the sun.
The 12 divisions share the names we know as our star signs.
The term zodiac derives from Latin zōdiacus – meaning “circle of animals”.
Throughout history, the zodiac has been used to predict or echo characteristics of personality.

WANT TO BECOME A HOROSCOPE READER?
Firstly, you need to get to grips with the basics, by reading books, reading horoscope charts and practising interpretations.
The best next step is to get certified from a reputable school that teaches astrology.
Then, you should determine where you’d like your career to go, be it doing individual horoscope readings, for corporate events, online or for magazines or newspapers – to name a few.
It could be a good idea when you start out to intern or get an apprenticeship with a professional astrologer, who will be able to give you valuable guidance.
Once you have a solid foundation to your knowledge, you can start forging a business out of astrology, should you wish.

WHAT IS NUMEROLOGY?
Similar to astrology, numerology is the belief that the day you were born contributes to your personality.
The concept gives everyone a “life-path” number that helps to tell you the truth about your personality, your outlook on life and any obstacles you’ll be forced to face.
Different numbers are associated with different things, with the most powerful numbers believed to be numbers that are paired with the same number.
For example 11, 22, and 33 are considered “master numbers: and have the “highest potential for success”.
The number 9, meanwhile, is believed to be the strongest number and its traits include wisdom and enlightenment.Find more info on numerology and its purpose here.

“William is intuitive, emotional, home-loving and sensitive while Kate is practical, stoic, ambitious and determined.

WHY MORE MILLENIALS ARE RELYING ON HOROSCOPES
Astrology has been around in various forms for thousands of years, but now horoscope meme machines are amassing more interest than ever.
Tarot queen Kerry King tells us: “For some years now, astrology has played the role of therapist, counsellor and decision making aide for millennials.
“Every generation tends to discover the stars at some point, but, for this generation, it is more than curiosity.
“Birth charts are analysed, events like Mercury Retrograde are planned around, dating apps using astrological matching are sought.
“In what is a very uncertain and volatile world, astrology offers structure and sense.”
- Martha Cliff
Pisces
Dreamy and creative Pisces will probably plump for somewhere sensual when it comes to a tattoo like the collarbone or behind the ear.
- Martha Cliff
Aquarius
Unconventional and unique Aquarius will pick somewhere intriguing like the rib cage.
- Martha Cliff
Capricorn
Dedicated and ambitious Capricorn will look for a minimal but striking place to brand themselves such as the top of the leg.
