Guided by the stars?
I remember back in high school I used to buy magazines that had horoscopes at the back. I remember turning to them almost immediately to find out how I would fare in the coming month. Would I have a happy or sad month? Good or bad month? Would I meet the right guy?
While I don't think I ever took them very seriously, I still was hooked. I had to look to see how my life was going to turn out based on the stars and their movements.
Later on, in my early working years, I remember listening to the radio and hearing morning DJs tell us what color to wear based on the position of the stars. There were also predictions for the 12 astrological signs about the overall outcome of the day.
