On the astrology front, I think it’s sort of like dancing, but for social/verbal skill. A girl opens with “what’s your sign”, you tell her, and then you make up a story together about the relation between the two signs. There’s no actual predictive power there, the signs are meaningless (she knows this, at least subconsciously), it’s just a framework within which you can indirectly talk about how you’d fit together.
Like, can you do a playful little drawing back upon hearing her sign, and get her to qualify herself to you? Can you read the atmosphere and inject some subtle flirts depending on how the conversation is going? Can you quickly improvise a narrative, and tell it in such a way that she can get into it? All of these demonstrate aspects of general social aptitude that are useful for a mate to have. Her children have a better outlook if they’re fathered by a man who’s intuitive, quick-witted, and charismatic.
Just like how dancing lets a woman see how good a man probably is at fighting without trying to get him to actually fight someone (which would be a faux-pas, to say the least), the astrology opener lets a woman see how good a man is at flirting and social games from behind a layer of plausible deniability (It’s just a hobby!).
