A horoscope is a prediction or analysis based on the position of the planets, sun, and moon at the time of a person's birth. It is a key part of astrology, which is the belief that celestial bodies influence human life and behavior.
Based on Birth Chart: A horoscope is typically drawn from a person’s natal chart (also called a kundli in Vedic astrology), which maps where the planets were when they were born.
Zodiac Signs: Horoscopes are commonly linked to 12 zodiac signs (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, etc.), which are segments of the sky in astrology.
Daily/Weekly/Monthly Forecasts: People often read daily, weekly, or monthly horoscopes for guidance on career, love, health, or personal decisions.
Types of Astrology:
Western Astrology: Uses the tropical zodiac and focuses mainly on sun signs.
Vedic Astrology (Jyotish): Originating from India, uses the sidereal zodiac and considers the moon sign as more important.
Chinese Astrology: Based on lunar years and animal signs.
Purpose: Horoscopes are used for:
Understanding personality traits
Making life decisions
Predicting future events
Choosing auspicious dates (e.g., for marriage or starting a new job)
Example: A horoscope might say, "Today, Aries natives may find new opportunities at work but should avoid financial risks."
