First year in college i was going around telling people that i can predict their intelligence based on their birth time. Basically from my experience, i tried to tell people that closer the people born towards midnight, more intelligent they are! Funny, I did get more than 50% success rate. Another thing i was trying to do is to predict their future based on their hand writing. Worst hand writing gets the best future. Of course as you guessed, my hand writing was very bad!. Also i learn to read palms. I still has the feeling that my life line has a break which predicted my near death accidents(Crash/crush) during my last days in college.
I think its just the indigestible quest and thirst of human mind to predict the future and so as to secure the survival. May be its more than survival, its the will to power. Our power over our future. If we can control then....
Science can tell us all present facts and past history. But when it comes to future, it got to depend on extrapolation and projections, Which is of course 50:50. Many people do go beyond science and super-natural to get some answers like palm reading and birth timings :).
But can we have the strength to embrace and have peace over the unpredictable chaotic future that we might encounter...

The future is nothing else than just the passed past with a twisted curl and more modern tools
Yes, it's the uncertainity which forces individuals to go for all kinds of predictions starting from astrology to palm reading.
In addition, IMO, it's this uncertainity which makes many believe in God since not many have the strength to embrace the future as it comes.
btw, nice blog. hope you post often :)
