Is the constellation pseudoscience?

I don't think astrology is a science, but it's not pseudoscience. The so-called pseudoscience should refer to a theory overthrown by science, and this theory itself has to flaunt itself as scientific. Fundamentally speaking, the constellation theory does not flaunt its unique scientific nature. Constellation theory is just a folk "fortune-telling" system circulating in society, and it was not invented by some fixed groups with ulterior motives.

So I don't think astrology is pseudoscience. In my mind, pseudoscience should be the theory that spirit can change matter, or a widely circulated theory that has long been overturned. For example, boiling water can cause cancer, and the human body has a saying that pH will affect people's illness.

Constellation theory, in general, is to create an explanation for everyone with a statistical universality and human psychological attribution, and his explanation is very open, not either one or the other. These characteristics are different from the demagogic pseudoscience.

Now some people think that constellations can be called pseudoscience because some people who want to attract traffic and make money use constellations to talk nonsense in an attempt to deceive people who believe in constellations. Their statement is far-fetched, which will make people think that this is a set of pseudoscience. But in fact, the constellation theory has its own system in essence, and it is not so complicated and mysterious. The constellation theory I understand is actually describing a tendency. Astrology predicts our fortune, but it doesn't mean that such a thing will happen in the future. The environment around us will change constantly, and the decisions made by a person can also change with the changes of the surrounding environment, and what may not necessarily happen. So I don't think the constellation theory is pseudoscience, and it has its own reasons.
