Cancer in Astrology

Many people confuse astronomy and astrology. Astronomy is the scientific study of the stars. Astrology is a non-scientific practice of interpreting and predicting events according to an ancient tradition that involves the location of different stars and planets when a person was born.

Scientists do not believe in astrology, but many people do. Astrology has been around since ancient times when people looked to the sky to explain their daily lives and the whims of the gods. One example of modern-day people's belief in astrology is the daily horoscope in the newspaper. Some people read their horoscopes just for fun, and they think the predictions are so vague they could apply to almost anyone. Other people spend a great deal of time and money to use astrology to help them understand the world and make important decisions.
