Note: No Such Thing As Believing In Horoscopes And Zodiac Signs In Islam

 💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

💌 Checking your "daily horoscope", evaluating if you and another person are compatible based on your zodiac signs, and believing that the stars or galaxies have significant impact on our lives, attitude, and temperament are from shaytan's means of deception which could disturb a Muslim's belief/'Aqeedah.

The problem with some individuals relying on horoscopes and astrological star signs, even if they're just curious, is that believing in astrology indirectly shows their acknowledgement that Allah's creation from the cosmos have the so-called power to control people's affairs, or astrologers can predict the future when Allah the Most Wise is the Only One Who knows everything that occurs and will occur in the universe designed by Him Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

If you're interested in self-discovery and wish to understand more about yourself in a way that isn't haraam/forbidden, you can refer to the MBTI personality type indicator which doesn't deal with issues that could gradually lead to shirk. Rather than identifying yourself as a bossy "Leo", stubborn "Taurus", talkative "Sagittarian", playful "Gemini", organized "Virgo", passionate "Pisces", or aggressive "Aries", you identify with being either an introvert or extrovert, and one who forms decisions according to logic or emotions etc.

📖 Zayd ibn Khalid RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “Allah the Almighty said: "Among My servants are those who awaken with faith in Me and disbelief in Me. Whoever said we have been given rain due to the favor and Mercy of Allah, he is a believer in Me and a disbeliever in the stars. Whoever said we have been given rain due to the rising of this star, he has disbelieved in Me and has put his faith in the stars."”
