I Tried AI as My Astrologer. It Told Me Something Profound
If you're cosmically inclined, in tune with all the retrogrades and speak in star signs, you'll love an artificial intelligence-generated interpretation of your natal chart. This is one of the most fun use cases of AI. Birth charts are notoriously difficult to interpret but ChatGPT can help you make sense of it and allow you to ask specific questions about your reading. You can use AI as a self-discovery tool, to supplement therapy sessions, as a tarot card reader and to get career guidance. Have a conversation with your higher self, with ChatGPT. While you should avoid making any major life decisions from this conversation alone (especially during Mercury Retrograde), it can serve as a mirror to better understand yourself. Get a down-to-earth birth chart analysis using AI. (Disclosure: Ziff Davis, CNET's parent company, in April filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.) Prompt your way to future predictions Because AI is known to convincingly hallucinate -- that is, make things up based on bad information on the internet -- it's better to get your natal chart from a specific astrology website so you know it's accurate, then feed the report into ChatGPT. There are plenty of websites out there, like Café Astrology and Co-Star. You'll need to input your location of birth, date of birth and time of birth. Make sure the time is right, because guessing it will skew the results. These websites usually generate long reports so I downloaded the PDF option. I ended up using Café Astrology because Co-Star didn't have a PDF download option. Over to ChatGPT to help me decipher what this means: Café Astrology/Screenshot by CNET First, I asked ChatGPT to give me a tailored astrology reading based on my birth chart, then attached the PDF. The devil is in the details with astrology and out of the gate, ChatGPT got an important detail wrong: it switched around my birth month/day (I think because I wrote it in the American format but said I was born in Australia -- so it read the date in the Australian format). I corrected it and it generated a new chart. First of all, I love how ChatGPT describes what the dominant houses mean. For example, your rising sign is how the world sees you vs. your sun sign, which is how you see yourself. My sun sign is in Taurus, so I crave loyalty, longevity and consistency, yet my moon sign (emotional world) is Sagittarius, so I need freedom and variety. I asked which part of me is more important to nurture -- the security or the freedom -- based on my chart. This is where AI shines, because you can't have a conversation like this with a PDF chart (and it would cost a lot of money to have a conversation with an astrologist). Here's what it said: ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET ChatGPT shared a powerful perspective I hadn't considered: My need for stability vs. adventure aren't opposites but rather complementary. But I need a secure foundation in order to feel free. I always thought of it as a battle but, in fact, I can have both. The foundation enables freedom. Pretty insightful stuff. I like how it breaks down action steps to tend to both sides of my psyche: ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET Next, I asked what's interesting about my chart that's not obvious to me. ChatGPT revealed that my need for security vs. surprise also comes through in my love life. I need love to feel surprising and non-traditional, even if I crave long-term connections. It even told me about how I interpret and show love. ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET Not surprised that banter is important, as Aussies love good quips. It also picked up that I require freedom and impact in my work, even suggesting women's health advocacy, which is a growing passion of mine (after coming out and trying to conceive via IVF). ChatGPT even touched on past-life tendencies and then gave me some themes for the year: ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET Relinquishing timelines -- a powerful lesson for me this year, as I navigate infertility. As I chatted with my AI astrologer, two big questions came up for me: What the second half of 2025 will bring. When I'll get pregnant. Here's some of my reading, which was filled with an impressive amount of info and predictions: ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET It also gave me a "thematic timeline" for the rest of the year, and "themes to lean into." Can AI use astrology to predict your future? I asked ChatGPT when I will get pregnant and, to its credit, it said it can't predict exact events. One point for ethics! But it can help identify windows of emotional readiness, karmic timing and cosmic support based on my chart and current planetary transits. Here's what my AI astrologer predicts: ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET I asked one final question: When should I do an embryo transfer based on my transits? It gave me two windows: Oct. 28-Nov. 22, 2025, and Feb. 7-Feb. 20, 2026. It described why those windows would be strong according to the planets and stars, and which would be the best transfer days within those windows. I even asked what was happening in June, when my latest embryo transfer failed. It explained what was going on in the planets and how the Capricorn Moon isn't a fertile placement. I ended the chat here on a high note: ChatGPT/Screenshot by CNET The verdict? Time will tell whether this comes true but I felt empowered and excited about my future after my AI astrology session. I won't be surrendering all control to the cosmos (or ChatGPT for that matter), but it's an insightful exercise to add to your self-discovery toolkit.

4 Reasons You Don't Relate to Your Zodiac Sign, Per Astrologers
4 Reasons You Don't Relate to Your Zodiac Sign, Per Astrologers originally appeared on Parade. If you've spent enough time online or if you have a friend group that loves astrology, chances are you've had someone reference your personality by naming your zodiac sign. Too indecisive when figuring out where to eat? 'You're such a Libra!' Talking about your super niche hobby that no one has heard of? 'That's so Aquarius of you!' While this is all in good fun, what happens when you genuinely don't relate to your zodiac sign? It can feel frustrating when others seem to connect so strongly to their sign, while you're struggling because the descriptions don't feel accurate to how you see yourself. If that's you, then good news—you're not alone! Though it may be tempting to dismiss astrology as a whole, there are multiple reasons why your zodiac sign doesn't seem to fit. Keep reading to learn four reasons why you likely don't relate to your zodiac sign, according to an expert astrologer. Even if you're an astrology newbie, chances are you know what your Sun sign (a.k.a. your zodiac sign) is, since your birth date is usually what determines it. What you may not know is that you are more than just your Sun sign—you have an entire birth chart! A birth chart is an astrological snapshot of the sky that shows where the Sun, Moon, and planets were the moment you were born. Each aspect of your chart affects a different part of your personality, as well as how it shows up in your life. The Sun rules our ego and core values, while the Moon rules over our emotions and inner world. The planet Mercury rules over our communication style, the planet Venus over the ways we show love and our relationships, and so on. Often, these planets aren't likely to all be in the same zodiac signs—you likely have multiple zodiac signs showing up in your chart. For example, perhaps you have a Sagittarius Sun, but a Virgo Moon and a Capricorn Rising. Once you become aware of all the different signs in your birth chart, you gain a more comprehensive picture of your personality—something your Sun sign alone cannot do. MORE: Everyone Secretly Admires People Born on These Dates, Per Experts As mentioned above, you likely have multiple zodiac signs in your birth chart. In some cases, however, you may notice you have numerous planets/luminaries in one sign. When a person has three or more planets/luminaries in a zodiac sign, it's called a stellium. If you have a stellium, chances are the sign it falls in will be more pronounced and familiar to you—if your stellum falls in a different sign than your Sun, then it could be why you don't resonate with your Sun sign as much. READ: 3 Most Calming, Comforting Birth Months We are all guilty of it—we hear a few basic descriptions of a zodiac sign and automatically reject it. Truthfully, as astrology continues to grow over time, it becomes easier for people to water down the traits of a sign. As a Capricorn who rolls her eyes every time my sign is described as 'boring, money-obsessed, and a stick in the mud,' I understand the resistance to not wanting to identify with bland qualities. It's worth noting, though, that while there can be some truth to stereotypes, they fall short of the full experience. Particularly in astrology, it can be hard to relate to the basic descriptions of a zodiac sign, especially because so many descriptions people give can be negative or downright hostile. Taking the time to do some research on your Sun sign beyond the typical stereotypes may allow you to uncover qualities you never knew. RELATED: 4 Zodiac Signs With a Heart-of-Gold, According to Astrologers This one can be unexpected, but it does happen! In most cases, your Sun sign is easily determined by the day you were born, since the Sun tends to stay in one zodiac sign for approximately 28-30 days. However, if you were born on the last day of a zodiac season, things become a bit tricky. On the last day of a zodiac season, the Sun starts in one sign and begins its transition to the next. Typically, before the day ends, the Sun has fully moved into the next sign, meaning that two people born on the same day could be two different zodiac signs! This is why knowing your birth time is so significant, as the time of day could indicate that you are the next zodiac sign over, which could provide a good reason why you aren't relating to your assumed Sun sign. 4 Reasons You Don't Relate to Your Zodiac Sign, Per Astrologers first appeared on Parade on Jul 14, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 14, 2025, where it first appeared.

The Most Successful Zodiac Signs, Ranked by Astrologers
Expert astrologers are often asked, "Which zodiac signs are the most successful?" However, looking at the entire birth chart can be helpful when determining success. Plus, every star sign is capable of succeeding in unique, different ways. Still, traits, features, and personalities are more likely to be driven, ambitious, and, therefore, successful, which can be correlated to zodiac signs. Astrologers rank the zodiac signs from the most to least likely to be successful. Check for your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs below. MORE: SIGN UP for Star Signs to get your horoscope and manifesting tips delivered straight to your inbox Saturn, the planet associated with discipline, karma, and maturity, governs Capricorn. As an Earth sign, Capricorn individuals are pragmatic, responsible, and determined to achieve their goals. It is no surprise that Capricorns are often seen as the most likely to succeed in their lifetimes. Whether they savor their successesover time or achieve victories early on, this sign is renowned for its strong work ethic. Taurus understands that being slow and steady leads to success, which is what distinguishes them from others. Their consistency and reliability enable them to continuously advance in their professional and practical aspirations. While Taurus must be patient when working towards their desires and goals, this determined Earth sign does not easily give up. As a result, they manifest victories through perseverance, strong willpower, and focused efforts. Aries is a determined pioneer. They possess strong leadership skills and an inherent drive to achieve their goals. When faced with obstacles, they don't hesitate to problem-solve, strategize, and put in the necessary effort to overcome them. While many people lose valuable time to overthinking, worrying, or feelings of inadequacy, Aries has the boldness to quickly pursue the life they desire, which is a vital part of manifesting success. NEXT: Cancer often gets a reputation for being overly emotional, but their sensitivity is often underestimated as a problem, not a strength. Their relatable personality, nurturing nature, and likable demeanor make them truly unforgettable. As a cardinal sign, Cancer is not one to passively wait for what they want to come to them. Instead, this Water sign uses their intuitive insight to devise strategies that lead to their inevitable success. Virgos are known for their ability to get the job done accurately and efficiently. As an Earth sign, they possess an exceptional attention to detail and strive for perfection in everything they do. Their fear of failure drives them to pursue their goals vigorously, resulting in a strong desire for success, achievements, and recognition for their hard work. It is basically impossible to ask a Virgo to take a back seat; they have a strong need for control and often take the lead in directing themselves and others toward a structured and orderly environment. Libra is an unexpected success story. Although they appear gentle, diplomatic, and charming, prioritizing interpersonal connections, they possess an uplifting aura that contributes to their achievements. Regardless of their popularity (which they usually have), they know how to present themselves as interesting, likable, and trustworthy when necessary. As an Air sign, Libra is personable and adept at finding ways to relate to their clients, networks, and others. NEXT: Your Ultimate Turn-Ons, Based on Zodiac Sign Scorpios are passionate and determined individuals. When they set high goals for themselves, they often achieve not only what they desire but even more. At times, they may become fixated on love, relationships, or other creative and romantic pursuits. They crave deep intimacy. However, when they commit fully to their career, vocational goals, or broader ambitions, they become unstoppable. All or nothing, they won't accept defeat. Leo is a bold and passionate leader. As a fixed sign, they pursue their fiery ambitions with determination and won't back down easily. Although their pride can occasionally hold them back from stepping outside their comfort zone—especially when they are unsure of their success on the first attempt—Leo is well-known for their sunny disposition and strong leadership abilities. They are great at delegating tasks, assuming boss-level roles, and being a cheerleader. MORE: 3 Zodiac Signs Most Likely to Have Psychic Dreams, According to Astrologers Aquarius seeks to redefine what it means to be established. They challenge societal norms regarding success and advocate for an individual-oriented mindset for everyone. Although they may not pursue traditional paths to victory, they ultimately achieve their goals in the long run. They simply prefer not to engage in society's conventional games. Gemini individuals tend to follow their intellect, which is a testament to their intelligence. However, they can often struggle with indecisiveness, leading them to be somewhat flaky when it comes to fulfilling their roles or responsibilities. They are easily distracted by new ideas and options. Nevertheless, their jack-of-all-trades personality allows them to explore various avenues of success. While they may not adhere to a single, tried-and-true path throughout their careers, they can certainly find fulfillment in their diverse experiences. READ: Gemini Compatibility: Who is Gemini Most Compatible With? Sagittarius is known for its free-spirited nature and often shies away from conventional paths that feel limiting. Their fear of being trapped leads them to prioritize their freedom when making decisions. As a result, those born under this sign may take longer to determine their personal definition of success. However, once they find their path, they excel, bringing passion, excitement, and adventure to their chosen field. While Pisces can certainly achieve success in their lifetime, they often become lost in a world of dreams and fantasies. They may get distracted by romantic relationships, personal commitments, or idealistic visions, which can cause them to drift without taking meaningful action at times. However, when they focus on grounding their visions and turning them into reality, they have the ability to inspire creatively, change lives, and heal others.
