At the midpoint of Twister, the smash hit 1996 disaster movie that dazzled audiences with its gale-force effects, a poor bovine drifts across the sky like a lost balloon. And it once sort of happened. “We went into one little town just after a twister passed through,” the film’s stunt coordinator, Mic Rodgers, tells me. “It threw a 40-foot cattle truck 15 feet out into a field, and killed half the cows that were in it.

How can Astrology tell you about your worst friends? Astrology is the concept of using the placement of the planets and their related astrological signs, or the Signs of the Zodiac, to determine the course of a life. These placements based on your birth date, time, and location can give you a wealth of information about your personality traits and character and predict events throughout your life based on your sign and current placements. Of course, this is a quick overview, and doing actual natal charts and horoscopes is much more complicated. But now you have a basic idea of what astrology is.
