Most of us will read the daily or weekly horoscopes provide by newspapers and magazines. They are viewed in the main as light entertainment. Serious readers of charts and planetary influence dismiss them as cheap fodder. The same can’t be said of character similarities, they can be rather accurate at times and deserve more credit than is currently given.
