Do my prayers not get accepted for forty days if I look at a daily planner that mentions the name of the zodiac sign corresponding to the day, or find out my zodiac sign when asked by neighbors, or incidentally hear conversations about zodiac signs on the radio, without intending to do so?

The blameworthy horoscopes are those that ascribe influence over future matters, or claim to reveal and analyze a person's characteristics. Horoscopes themselves are not blameworthy. It is permissible to use them to inform about customary weather conditions and agriculture, such as predicting winds, rainfall, or the ripening of fruits, while emphasizing that these are mere expectations based on experience and not a claim to knowledge of the unseen.
