Whatever newspaper or magazine you choose to read, be it a broadsheet or tabloid, high fashion or celebrity gossip, there is one thing they are all sure to contain: horoscopes.
Either nestled in the back pages, or allowed an entire glossy page, no mainstream consumer title is without their resident astrologer and 12 paragraphs of star-gazing. Of course, as the quality of the publication differs, so do the horoscopes.
