Explain several techniques used by astrologers to persuade people to accept their advice.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

In order to persuade people to accept their advice astrologers use the following techniques:

  • Suggestion: to convince you to believe in their predictions, they make you believe that you are about to read valuable information that can change your life forever. If you don't follow their advice, according to them, you would be missing the chance of being a successful, loved and happy person.
  • Social acceptance: they give you examples of people that have followed their advice and who are now lively and happy. They even tell you how presidents, ministers and other importan authorities don not take a decision wihout consulting their personal astrologer.
  • Mystery: they create a mysterious atmosphere for you to believe you are about to unveil a secret world before your eyes.
  • Scarce technique: they claim to be very few the real and authorized astrologers that can tell you reliable information. This will make you believe that if you miss their advice, you run the risk of being deceived by an ill-intentioned person who pretends to be an astrologer, but is no other thing than a scammer.
