German Outlets Publish New Daily and October Horoscopes With Videos, AI Art and Disclaimers

Newsrooms balance strong reader demand with research showing astrologers perform at chance levels.

Overview

  • TAG24, Augsburger Allgemeine, DerWesten and FOCUS published sign‑by‑sign daily horoscopes for September 23, with TAG24 also posting a preview for September 24.
  • DerWesten rolled out October 2025 monthly horoscopes for multiple signs, detailing health, career and love forecasts with date‑specific planetary alignments.
  • Augsburger Allgemeine paired horoscopes with daily‑updated videos and explainers on zodiac history and ranges, and warned readers not to base major decisions on forecasts.
  • Coverage repeatedly cited the Clearer Thinking study by Spencer Greenberg and André Ferretti, reporting astrologers averaged 2.49 correct matches out of 12—no better than random.
  • Several pieces credited AI‑generated imagery to Midjourney, and articles referenced YouGov polling indicating roughly half of Germans show interest in or belief in astrology.
