Hill is not alone, over millions of people wake up each and every morning to receive their Horoscopes. Horoscopes play a big part of a person’s day, deciding how the outcome of the day will be.
“[Horoscopes] play a big part of my day, if my horoscope isn’t positive then my day is normally not positive,” Hill said.
People have became familiar with horoscopes, because they appear in different places such as magazines, online social media websites and in newspapers.
A basic horoscope is based on a person’s birth month, date and birth year as well as during which of the 12 Zodiac segments the birth occurs.
“The concept [of] how it said if you are born under a certain sign, you act this way and have these traits, that intrigued me into following my horoscope daily,” Hill said.
Hill is known for telling people their horoscopes from a book he brought to school called What Your Birthday Says About You. The book gives information about horoscopes and describes what a person born on a certain day is like and what they are interested in.
Hill reads other students a paragraph about what their birth date says about them. Students were amazed that what they were hearing about themselves appeared to be 100 percent accurate about their personality.
“Horoscopes tell me who I’m compatible with and also give me a heads up with what I am dealing with in a person,” Hill said.
Hill would rather know someone’s Zodiac sign before he meets them because then he will know more about the person and his personality traits.
“When I first read it was spot on, it described me perfectly. My brother showed me a book that described my birthday, and it described me perfectly,” Hill said.
As a Pisces, Hill is described as a compassionate, artistic, sensitive and spiritual individual.
Hill is known around school as a generous, compassionate, peaceful and a kind individual. Also Pisces tend to depend on intuition more than on rational mind.
“Astrology is more complex than many think. It is very deep to comprehend and if you do understand it, it is fascinating,” Hill said. “Horoscopes are mystical, and they show why people act the certain way they act. I think it is interesting to look for clues throughout the days. It makes my life like a puzzle,”
Hill subscribed to a website called, www.horoscope.com about a year ago. He receives an email and a text message each day to explain his Horoscope. There are over thousands of websites involving horoscopes
