Astrology is booming, thanks to technology and younger enthusiasts

Transiting Pluto Semisextile Natal Uranus in Capricorn. That was the response Co-Star, an astrology app, gave when your correspondent asked if he should work harder. It meant, in plain(er) English, that the position of Pluto vis-à-vis Uranus could spark creativity, reduce the need to “conform to traditional work expectations” and unleash a “natural sense of individuality, rebellion”. Citing the movement of planets for missing a deadline, however, would not please your correspondent’s editor. Horoscopes, be damned.
