By spiritually providing advice and insight into one’s future, horoscopes have become a staple that remain in our day-to-day publications. Astrology predictions are still believed to hold answers for our future selves, almost a security for our fear of the lack of control we have over the days to come. 

Astrological signs were believed to be interpretations of omens from gods in many cultures. These beliefs originated in the 3rd millennium B.C, spreading through modern civilizations. In the modern day, horoscopes have been funneled into an accessible prediction, online, in journals, and newspapers. A daily “dose” of spirituality is now popularized with the belief that we have some outlook on our future and something to advise us. 

There is a comfort to be found in the ‘signs,’ an inexplicable reading from something higher than oneself. While this belief isn’t applicable to all, taking comfort in something like this is special — it’s an avenue to stay positive for the coming future. Finding ways to remain positive in the future, should be found in any way possible, especially today. Getting a small segment of insight into the future is helpful not only in planning your next steps but gaining some clarity on how to continue.
