Perhaps there is some sort of acting mechanism not yet realized by mainstream inquiry. Untill such thing a thing can be tested though, I'll stay in the agnostic camp.

Just to take it at face vaule, as some sort of "magic" or supernatural effect, would require a major paradigm shift in how I view the world.

Who said anything about deterministic? In my opinion, a more interesting way of looking at astrology is to imagine that human affairs and planetary/interstellar dynamics are each co-determined by deeper universal laws (i.e. everything is related to everything else).
I assumed that if the future can be predicted, then naturally it follows that there is some sort of determinism implied. I don't know, I don't really know a whole lot about this subject.
