Skeptics
    #21142082 -

I was wondering your thoughts on subjects like astrology. Where observations were mde and patterns found linking consciousness with the times.
I also realize there are quite a few widely applying and vague terms with respects to each individual sign and supposed traits..however, it seems to at times hilariously align with people I know.
Even my own sign I can. Honestly say despite my skepticism aligns with some aspects of my personality...the symbol itself does the most justice.

I personally like to think of astrology as an ancient system of psychology, which is an esoteric system, that simultaneously has an exoteric format that is peddled through astrological readouts and superstition...

So, I think of the astrological signs more like archetypes,  and we can each manifest some of the archetypal attributes, but it doesn't have anything to do with what month we were born on or fortune telling...

That means, all the signs are potentially meaningful to me and my personality, rather than the one that was arbitrarily designated to me...

Make sense?

Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

the signs are revelatory, and meaningful, thought based off of pseudoscience, and particularly bad pseudoscience.

it's like old story telling, but put to a pseudoscience called Astrology, that assigns the stories to archetypes (thank you Cosmic) that may or may not exist, but they definitely don't exist as some star map.
