Abstract

The topic of the article is analyzing the horoscope as a media text, which is a current issue. Horrible texts shared on the social media platform TikTok served as the study's source material. The way that information is presented in these groups allows one to see how readers respond enthusiastically to the traits that they provide for each sign of the zodiac. We are able to make some inferences regarding the nature of the influence of English horoscopes on an individual's disposition, conduct, and life circumstances by analyzing the data gathered during the course of our investigation. Videos with English horoscope content are especially intriguing because they have titles, which serve primarily as attention-getters for viewers. Two of the predictive text's primary purposes are also covered in the article. Furthermore, our survey suggests that contemporary English horoscopes are viewed as a component of a particular type of game. The prognostic text's author crafts a description that is simple to apply to every sign of the zodiac, and anyone can find parallels between any sign's description and his or her own circumstances and personality traits. It is anticipated that a growing number of English horoscopes will appear on social media and in TV shows.
