There is really no known way for planets and their constellations to influence human life on earth, aside from the moon's gravity, which causes the tides, of course, but other than that, nothing known. So it must be either by pure chance that constellations fit events, or psychology at work. I go by the first, and continue watching horoscopes.
I have for example watched my horoscope's astrological incidences for many years, with an open mind.

After all these years I note one area where astrology seems to be really useful, and that is in putting in perspective and thereby controlling anger, because: when there happens to be a flare up of ego and conflict in my life, there often is also an accompanying Mars transit. It's not easy to blame people or circumstances, like I ordinarily would, when there is a sign or symbol in the sky denoting anger, exactly related to my birth time.
