While some horoscopes sites may promise predictions based on the “movement” of the stars, it’s the Earth that’s moving, not the stars. The reason why stars look like they’re moving, both throughout the night and over the course of the year, is because the Earth rotates on its axis and orbits around the Sun. But, before most humans knew that, they spent a lot of time thinking about what was happening up there in the sky.
Looking for answers, signs and predictions in the movements of the celestial bodies —is a longtime fascination of humans looking up at the stars to plan their lives.
