I wouldn't dismiss astrology totally because within my extended family certain predictions have come true ! Of course it could be a co incidence but at the same time there is no concrete proof against astrology as well..I am giving this link where various different view points regarding astrology has been posted.

Why do the famous astrologers not predict who will win in UP with how many seats. One way or the other I think 99% Indians believe in astrology overtly or covertly. But that does not make it a science. Real bogus people will always feel others are bohgus.

May be, because there are many evidences there which prove that no one can predict future. If you remembered, a prediction was saying that world will come to end in year 2012. It was claimed that the predictions of Maya calendar came true, and this prediction will also be true. But the truth is in front of everyone.  

Upon investigation it was revealed that the Mayan civilization had never predicted that the world will end on 2012. But as their long calender showed dates only upto 2012 people became apprehensive and the myth of false prediction started.

The Mayan theories of time based are time are based on around cycles that repeat themselves and extend through out history  Because if this,they used different calendars. For further details see

Similarly, Congress has its own calendar, that predicts a sure win in UP . BJP'S calendar and other political parties

Both astrology and science are true, but the way people take them is different. If an astrologer says there exists some other world than earth, people start saying him bogus, and fake. People will say it is based only on his imaginations. But if a scientist says the same thing that there may be life exist on other planets than earth, then only people start believing. So if both say the same thing, people will say science is truth and astrology is false.

The scientist says it with proof and the astrolger with imagination. That is the difference.

We can not take the example of Mayan calendar here, because it was only a solar calendar devised by ancient Mayans but was wrongly predicted as being the prophecy of the end of the world. It is our fault not theirs.

However, I would like to draw attention to Nostradamus and his famous prophecies which has come true so often.

The prophesies of Nostradamus are capable of interpretation in any way after occurrence of events. This is year 2017.  I hope somebody should tell what is going to happen in next ten years in India after reading Nostradamus. It is no use interpreting his prophesy after events take place. 

Prediction about an event means, before the event takes place. After the event or an incident happens if somebody says some thing is going to happen, it is not a prediction at all.

Astrolgy exists in weak minded persons who want solutions  from milions of miles way planets. Smart persons exploit this for their gain.
