Hocus Pocus?

I don't know how much I believe in psychics, palm readers, tarot cards, astrology, crystal or aura readings, etc. However, I will admit about 11 years ago at a carnival for a local charity (for the fun if it) I had a woman read me my cards. Tarot cards in specific. It was one of those impulsive, I have a bunch of tickets to finish type of moments. So I entered through the velvet drapes and thought to myself "ok lady let me have it". Much to my surprise this woman didn't ask many leading questions nor did she speculate based on body language or demeanor. She seemed somewhat legit. Now for that moment, I half listened to what she had to say and went about my day, but a lot of it has been coming back to me as of late. Especially because most of it is coming true. Now, before I jump to conclusions I have to say a lot of it can be coincidence, pre-conceived notions etc. but if some of the things she vaguely outlined, are happening. Wouldn't you also speculate the validity of the other things she mentioned? Again, I cant jump the gun on this because many years ago my paternal grandfather who actually did believe in some of the Hindu pundit astrological mumbo jumbo had found out things like his wife would predecease him (not true because he passed away 10 years ago and my grandmother is still alive) and some other matters that weren't so specific, but again did not pan out accordingly. So then it makes me think that maybe some of this stuff is just an arrow in the dark. If it sticks, great and if it doesn't its not like people are going around living their lives according to all of this.
Or are they? I, without fail, check my horoscope daily. I even read it and apply it to what is happening. I don't necessarily proactively change anything based on it, but I still read the insight EVERY day. What does that say? I am reading this then to give me comfort or guidance on what is happening in my life. Isn't that primarily the role of religion or other faith/spiritual following? So then it seems, that I could be reading this merely for entertainment. I don't know if its necessarily written for that purpose, because most of this stuff seems to have some scientific or astrological backing, but then do we even need to measure accuracy?Probably not, it seems as if the people who believe in this are intelligently trying to legitimize and make it a growing industry. For the naysers, I can't really argue because its something similar to religion. There wont be a methodical rhyme or reason, it is belief based. It is all about what you chose to believe and how you chose to believe it. You don't burn sage in your house because you KNOW it removes bad aura or you do it because you BELIEVE it does good. All I can say is, I have a growing curiosity for all of these things and really do enjoy reading about it, but I don't know if I can say I'm a believer/follower just yet.
