Imagine a case hinging on whether astrology is fraudulent, and the judge starts by asking counsel their star signs (twitter.com)

There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that astrological compatibility of star signs has any effect on human relationships or personality traits. Astrology is based on the assumption that the positions and movements of celestial bodies influence human affairs and the natural world, but there is no causal mechanism or empirical proof for this assumption¹². Astrology is considered a pseudoscience by most scientists and skeptics, who regard it as a form of superstition or entertainment³⁴.

If astrology were true, it would imply that human beings are not free to make their own choices or shape their own destinies, but are instead predetermined by the cosmic forces that govern the universe. This would contradict the teachings of many religions, such as Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, which affirm the existence of free will and moral responsibility for human actions⁵⁶. It would also challenge the philosophical views of rationalism, empiricism, and humanism, which emphasize the use of reason, evidence, and human values to understand and improve the world⁷⁸. Furthermore, it would pose a problem for atheism, which denies the existence of any supernatural beings or forces that influence human life⁹. Astrology would require a new worldview that accepts the existence of a mysterious and powerful force that transcends natural laws and human reason.
