- 1星座運勢、星盤（報紙雜誌短短那則多叫星座運勢；依出生時刻排出來的整張圖才叫星盤）
A horoscope is a reading of your character, and of what may happen to you, drawn from where the sun, moon, and planets stood when you were born — and, in the newspaper kind, from where they stand today. Magazines and apps print a short horoscope for each of the twelve star signs; that is the everyday use. A fuller one maps the sky at the minute you arrived. Plenty of people read theirs for fun and do not treat it as science; others take it quite seriously. It belongs to , not to astronomy (the science of stars). The word is a bit newspaper-and-app; in a science class you would not use it as a fact.
組成From French horoscope, from Latin horoscopus, from Ancient Greek ὡροσκόπος (hōroskópos): ὥρα (hṓra, “a limited time”) + σκοπός (skopós, “watcher”). By the look of the English word: horo- + -scope.
