  • Augsburger Allgemeine packaged sign-specific pages with daily updated videos and context on zodiac origins and date ranges.
  • Coverage reiterates polling that about 53% of Germans see a link between star signs and personality, while roughly 13% read horoscopes regularly, with higher belief among women than men.
