once a man came to prabhupad ji and said prbhupad ji can you read my palm....as i am in deep trouble can you predict my future....
prabhupad ji after staring his hand gave a clap to his hand and said clap and chant mahamantra....everything will be all right.....
this is how great our guru ji is...!
prabhupad ji also said astrology is a scientific way to know about your future..but what even if you know your future....? you will get everythng according to your past karma....better stop worrying about future rather thn build it a better future by simply chanting
hare krsna hare krsna
krsna krsna hare hare
hare rama hare rama
rama rama hare hare..
Srila Prabhupada Letter to Devamaya, January 9, 1975, Bombay:
Regarding astrology, you should not listen to any of these so-called astrologers—strictly avoid. Don't even see them. What is the use of seeing them? Astrology is meant for the materialist, but a spiritualist does not care for the future. Everything is dependent upon Krishna. So where is the necessity of astrology? The devotees' principle is, let there happen anything as Krishna desires. Let me remain sincere devotee, that's all. Pure devotee is never interested in this astrology.
So, continue nicely with your deity worship there and read my books very carefully, and without fail chant 16 rounds on your beads daily.
I hope this meets you in good health.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

Hare KRsna Mataji,
PAMHO.
Astrology is very much a science. The problem is - one doesnt know who is able to read the charts properly. Therefore, better not to trust anyone blindly. It is at best indicative - not conclusive. How these charts work is based on our past life karmas - good and bad.
A devotee of Krsna is in the hands of Krsna. Krsna is already cleaning up the past karma of the devotee. Therefore, the astrological charts may not hold true for such a person. Thats why renouned astrologers say clearly, we cannot predict the future of Krsna devotees.
Haribol,
