Question

write a note on the astrologers profession.

Answer 1

An astrologist is somebody who studies the position of the planetary bodies within our universe in order to make predictions on future outcomes or interpret the meaning of past events. The history of astrology goes back to a time (3rd Millennium BC) when astrology and astronomy were inseparably linked. Employing astrological beliefs or methods to interpret the movements of the planets led to the creation of many cultural beliefs which are still in practice today. Virtually every daily newspaper and almost every weekly magazine dedicates a page to the horoscope, which is an interpretive prediction of forthcoming events based on the position of the sun relative to a person's birth date. Whilst the profession has its believers and doubters, the concepts and interpretive art remain as popular today as ever. Astrology is traditionally linked to esoteric practices such as numerology and palmistry, and is considered by some as a form of “pseudo science”.
Most of the time, an astrology reading performed at the location of the customer's home or place of choosing would classify as a low-risk area. It is, however, worth the astrologer conducting a brief mental hazard assessment to ensure their safety whilst spending time in an unfamiliar environment. Some people can find the intimacy of the one-to-one nature of the work quite intimidating, but many prefer it to having to speak in public or deal with a large number of people.
