Logical Problem with Astrology 

  • There are more than 12 zodiac signs 

  • Constellations have moved since the original ideas were developed 

  • The stars are not actually close together in space, we have imposed patterns on them.

  • The stars and planets do not have enough of a gravitational force/tidal force on Earth to exert any kind of impact on the human body.
