German Outlets Roll Out Fresh Horoscopes, Some Add Scientific Caveats
Augsburger Allgemeine highlights studies finding no scientific basis for horoscope claims.
Overview
- BILD publishes week-of January 12–18 forecasts for all signs, repeatedly pointing to potential promotions, financial openings and wellness routines.
- TAG24 posts free, same-day daily horoscopes for January 15 and publishes an outlook for January 16.
- DerWesten attributes the day’s romantic shifts to a Venus–Uranus influence, noting sudden opportunities for Gemini, Taurus and Aquarius.
- Augsburger Allgemeine pairs daily horoscope videos with context citing the Clearer Thinking study, in which 152 astrologers performed at chance level.
