How many of you believe that these actual have some basis of truths in them. I haven't kept up on them in a while but went to check out my daily horoscope today and It could not have hit the nail on the head any better. " Your instincts tell you to stay uncommited. You would be wise to follow them." and I just so happaned to have had this interesting situation with this girl who I met at a rave who started to develop an attachment to me. I also find that the general overviews of personality for an Aquarius matches me very very well. Especially this one.


"The first thing that you will note about a person born under the Aquarius zodiac sign is the friendly nature. There will hardly be any person around him, who is not his friend. They love their freedom. They are prone to mood swings. One moment they will be in solitude and the next, they are in a mob. An Aquarian hates to conform to the usual norms and is more of a rebel. He will keep on evaluating situations, people, etc on a regular basis. Yet they seem confused at the end of the day."

I always find myself saying at the end of the day "what the hell just happaned"

So back to my question how many believe that the alignment of stars predetermines a lot of traits that we inherit and your general consensus on the matter.

I have a lion for Leo tattooed on my arm. The white lion of Andor to be exact.

Me neither generally because of how broadly they are usually termed. But this one was ridiculously close to home. And then my one for Saturday was " You are nearing your breaking point. Perhaps some rest is in your future" And at this point I had been up for 4 days straight doing uppers and having a great time. How spookey haha.

I do not live by this astrology thing.One can not deny that there are some things that are very close, if not exact, about the personality traits of signs.I find this extremely fascinating and entertaining.I like to read Rob Brezsny for a different kind of horoscope.

I really don't believe in them or use a horoscope to guide my daily life. I'm a Taurus and one thing is true, I'm  stubborn as hell.

Sun in Virgo, moon in Cancer.

If the moon can control the tides, it must have some effect on us (being mostly comprised of water).

All in all, it's interesting to read.

Start following your daily horoscope, you'll see that the reports are usually 70-80% accurate. Even some days, they will be on point.

I believe there's much to astrology, even though most astronomers mock it (astronomers and astrologers were once considered the same though...) It's clearly a lost science, and requires knowledge beyond the capability of our understanding, or knowledge we at least once had. Regardless of what the consensus feels about it, personally, I find my own horoscopes to be increasingly accurate. There's definitely something mystical or "supernatural" about it, and you'll immediately notice this when you start following your forecast.

I can't count how many times my daily astrological forecast "saved" me. For example, there was this one time when I had checked my daily horoscope while I was at work. It was like 11 PM, and it was slow. So I read it, and basically the summary of the horoscope was, "You always make the same mistakes when it comes to money, and today you should be more aware of your funds to avoid future problems." Low and behold, I check my bank account at the ATM machine and of course it's negative. It was over $35, so who knows how long I had until I got hit with an over-draft.

Point being, you cant call it a coincidence, because you will experience this repetitively as long as you continue to follow your astrological horoscope - those who deny astrology only deny the importance of microcosm and macrocosm (the macrocosm in this case being, the perfect alignment of everything in universe, affecting us on Earth. Just as the alignment of the moon affects us on Earth or even the rest of the planets in the Solar System - the microcosm).

How about that partial full moon eclipse happening in the sign of Cancer on New Year's Eve?

that's part of the reason I don't like horoscopes, there are too many people just looking to make money with them.

But I don't really feel it so far fetched that planet alignment can effect people.
-First off the Moon affects tides and people are mostly water, so the moon should affect people too, right?
-The placement of Earth in orbit in relation to the sun affects the seasons and the seasons affect all living things, right?
-We can see Stars through telescopes but we can't always see Planets so in order to tell if a Star has Planets around it we will measure to see if it's being affected buy the gravity of the planets around it. So even things light years away can effect each other.

This, but there's some truth to the idea that being born in a different season can influence your personality.

I'm a Pisces myself.

I don't believe in astrology or horoscopes and am surprised that so many otherwise intelligent people do. :shrug:

What's the difference between your sign for the Sun/Moon/Rising?
