German News Sites Post Sept. 12–14 Horoscopes With Research Warnings

Editors present the forecasts as entertainment, citing studies and polls that find no predictive power despite strong interest.

Overview

  • Major outlets including TAG24, MOPO and BILD published daily forecasts for Sept. 12 and previews for Sept. 13, alongside a weekly piece for Sept. 8–14.
  • DerWesten’s latest article predicts a challenging Sept. 13–14 weekend for Aries, Gemini, Taurus, Aquarius and Cancer, attributing it to Mercury–Neptune dynamics and a retrograde Uranus.
  • Coverage delivers sign‑specific guidance on love, work/finances and health, with per‑sign pages and regularly updated formats such as daily videos.
  • Multiple pieces foreground scientific caveats, referencing a Clearer Thinking study (152 astrologers averaging 2.49 correct out of 12) and noting the Barnum/Forer effect.
  • Polling cited by the articles reports about 53% of Germans perceive a sign‑personality link and roughly 13% read horoscopes regularly, while editors advise against using them for important decisions.
