German Outlets Roll Out Sept. 26 Horoscopes With Prominent Scientific Disclaimers

Editors pair sign-by-sign guidance with clear disclaimers, citing YouGov polling alongside the Clearer Thinking study.

Overview

  • MOPO, TAG24, Augsburger Allgemeine and BILD published free, date-specific horoscopes covering all twelve signs for September 26, with BILD also offering a weekly forecast.
  • Augsburger Allgemeine packages many entries as daily updated videos, while TAG24 highlights love, career and health advice and credits AI imagery for presentation.
  • Outlets explicitly note that astrology lacks empirical support and frame the content as entertainment or motivation rather than factual prediction.
  • Several pieces reference YouGov findings indicating broad interest in astrology in Germany, including majority belief or curiosity and lower regular readership rates.
  • The widely cited Clearer Thinking test of 152 astrologers reported average accuracy of 2.49 correct matches out of 12, consistent with chance, and articles caution against using horoscopes for major decisions.
