Is there a scientific basis for astrology? Why do so many people believe it?

First of all, it must be emphasized that horoscope and astrology are not the same thing. If astrology and physics are compared in a familiar scientific category, "constellation" probably corresponds to "force analysis" in the mechanical branch of physics. I still remember that people who think in physics in middle school can easily come to a conclusion that force analysis is often only a step to study the motion characteristics of objects, and there is still a long way to go to get the real answer. Secondly, explain the problem of "scientific basis". I suggest that people who really understand the precise meaning of "scientificity" and "scientific basis" carefully read Cheng Yinan's answer under reading. I think this is the most appropriate and objective explanation of whether astrology is scientific or not. The conclusion is correct. Astrology studies people's personality and life, and these things can't be used for experiments at all, so if the "scientific method" in human knowledge system remains unchanged forever, astrology will never reach the standard of "science".
