it is, like tarot and other methods of divination, a way to cast an externally dictated framing on empirical situations and thus force oneself to reconsider one's biases. personally, i don't know anyone who actually thinks the positions of the planets materially affect outcomes

It isn't just predictions though. Many people genuinely believe knowing someone's birthday gives insight into their personality. e.g. Don't take a Gemini's words at face value.
Don't take anyone's words at face value; trust but verify. Like, I get where you're coming from - obviously one has to be self aware and not actually stereotype people based on their birthday - but I think it's largely harmless.
