Is astrology true?

In Indian vedas or scriptures a special knowledge about astrology is given. They call it jyotish shastra. We have languages to communicate with with each other, we have programming languages to instruct and guide computers and devices, Similarly we have a language to read our 'Karma' and we call it jyotish shastra or astrology.

What an astrologer can do is use this knowledge to read your karma and predict your future based on it. Basically he can only read your future but you must know he cannot change it. May be they can predict your future with some accuracy. In many places it is seen that they use some inanimate objects like gemstones and promise you to change your future. You must understand that if a astrologer can change future why does he not change his future. If it was true why does he charges you fee and rather not be a billionaire himself with his astrology. So you must know that astrologer or his inanimate objects like gemstones cannot change your future. But some saints in India believe that God can change your future and you can do it by becoming his devotee.

In my opinion one must not fall in the trap of astrology. It's never beneficial for a person to know his or her future weather it is good or bad. Suppose you know that you are going to have an accident tomorrow, would you be able to live today? Or you get to know that that you are going to be billionaire after 10 years. Would you be able live the next 10 years fully. So predictions of your future would just make you fall in a ugly trape of  tension and stress. Instead of that just enjoy the present and let your future be a surprise gift for you by the almighty god.
