All around the world, it seems to be true that people prefer mystery explanations to simple explanations. If someone is killed in a car crash, for example many people say it was caused by fate, rather than by poor driving or bad road conditions. In many countries, a moneymaking business has developed around the subject of astrology. Astrologers want us to believe that our characters are formed as soon as we are born, according to the particular zodiac sign we are born under. Many people prefer to believe this than to read the scientific explanations of the development of human character and personality put forward by psychologists and doctors. Hence, in many popular magazines and women’s journals, we find a page such as “ You and Your Stars”. And in some countries, you can even ask “ an astrology expert” questions about your future.
