1. Co-Star

Arguably one of the most popular horoscope apps out there, Co-Star describes itself as a "hyper-personal" and "social" experience. It brings daily horoscopes in a sleek and informative manner, casting a wide overview of your day through an intelligent AI that utilises data from NASA to track planets as they move. Every aspect of your life—from work to relationships—are taken into consideration alongside movements of the moon, planets, and zodiac houses. 

2. The Pattern

Channing Tatum seems to love The Pattern, an astrology app that you can use on yourself and on those around you. All you have to do is create a profile with your name, birth date, time, and place, and the rest is up to them! They'll come up with a list of traits unique to that person (the "Pattern" and a list of past, present, and future "cycles" (the "Timing"). The app allows you to go over your own profile and even link any two profiles to see how they match up if they were ever in some sort of close relationship. Try it for yourself and see if you're as mind-boggled as Tatum was!
