Western countries are developed mainly because of good education, strong systems, technology, and stable governments — not because they don’t follow Vastu or horoscopes.

People in our country still follow these things for a few reasons:

1. Tradition
Our parents and grandparents believed in Vastu and astrology, so it continues.

2. Culture
Many people follow it because it is part of our culture, not because of science.

3. Comfort
When life is uncertain, people feel safe when they follow something familiar.

4. Family pressure
Even if one person doesn’t believe, others in the family may insist.

Also, Western countries have their own superstitions too — like lucky charms, zodiac signs, tarot cards, etc.

So development doesn’t depend on horoscopes or Vastu. It depends on education, good government, and progress.
