But work it does. I've encountered numerous instances of it working very specifically and accurately.

For instance, my mother once cast a horary (branch of astrology) chart to find her lost wallet using the exact time of the question being asked and exact location down to city. The chart specified "In a dark, dry place; object was forgotten, not stolen; will be found in 3 units of time from time of questioning; the object will likely be found; and is east of the location the question was asked."

These details turned out to be all true, it was found in a desk at her job in Manhattan, east of us 3 hours after the question was asked.

There are other instances, too, that I've personally experienced, maybe others can share.

Those who do not like astrology probably had bad experiences with it or are living under a certain belief structure that does not permit astrology to work. Maybe caused by the opinions of peers. Perhaps a logical conclusion. Or maybe an opinion made from afar, knowing only of such things as daily horoscopes and "What sign are you?"

My advice: Test it.
All of those details aren't really astounding...especially if there are a countless number of predictions that get no hits. Which is what I'm guessing. I'm not trying to rain on the parade or anything but its just that I think people waste too much time with that stuff.
