Although modern horoscopes typically consist of life advice, it's almost certainly terrible advice because it was written by someone who failed at legitimate or useful employment.

I am not sure this logic holds because i am not sure anyone has been dedicated to write these for a while.

Discovered years ago that many papers/magazines reuse the same generic texts for different horoscopes. Sometimes different horoscopes have the same text on the same day.

Also different magazines will steal them From eachother.

People usually only read their own and the text is generic enough you’re not going to remember seeing it again.

I assume these will all be ai soon. Its the perfect low stakes job for it.
