Astrology Questions: How Much Do You Know? Find Out!

Did you know that approximately 33% of Americans believe in astrology? But even if you know nothing else about astrology, you probably know your Sun sign. This horoscope quiz will test your knowledge of this esoteric subject. If you've ever ordered an astrological chart, you'll probably do better on this little star sign test than someone who hasn't. You familiar with the Zodiac symbols? Perhaps you've seen them on the Entertainment section of the newspaper, or even on a restaurant menu. The questions here won't be as difficult as you might imagine. Even if you've never picked up a book on horoscopes, you might be able to deduce the correct answers to 4-5 questions in this horoscope quiz based only on your knowledge of the Solar System. If you or a family member or friend has had a passing interest in astrology, or you have a passing interest in New Age subjects, you might get 6 to 8 of these questions correct. And if you've read my other lens, Real Astrology: Can It Predict Your Future? which recounts my personal journey from skeptic to believer, you will probably score 100%...because the answers to each of these horoscope quiz questions can be found in that lens.  Believers, and even skeptics--openminded ones--will enjoy listening to the surprising CBC radio interview with Harvard-educated Dr. Richard Tarnas conducted by Tapestry's skeptical host Mary Hynes which you'll find further down this lens.

Canadian Broadcasting Company's Mary Hynes Interviews scholar Dr Richard Tarnas on CBC Radio's Tapestry.

Ms Hynes' introduction: "Every now and then a book about astrology lands on Tapestry's doorstep. As soon as one comes in, it goes out. Right into the give-away pile. Astrology might be good for a laugh but it's not something you're going to hear about on CBC Radio!

So, here's the problem. One day, a book lands on our doorstep. It's about astrology, but it's written by a highly respected scholar - whose last book was praised by the likes of Joseph Campbell and Huston Smith. His name is Richard Tarnas and the book is called "Cosmos And Psyche" . There's only one option - interview him! You'll hear the results on this week's Tapestry."

Listen to the once skeptical Ms. Hynes' extremely interesting interview with Dr Tarnas, HERE. Will he change your mind, too?

You can buy the Kindle book from Amazon.com, below.

When people ask, "What's your sign?," what they are really asking (even if they are unaware of it) is, "What sign is the Sun in in your chart?"
