Do you believe in Astrology?

[JoanneAZ]

No, I don’t believe in astrology other than as entertainment. All of the horoscopes are written with very general terms and people tend to remember the stuff that seems right and forget the stuff that isn’t.

I watched a news show where a professor in a psych course handed out papers to his class. He had the student tell him their sign and he gave them a paper with a personality profile of their sign. He then asked the students to raise their hand if they identified with the description. About 90% of the students raised their hand. He then revealed that all the papers had the exact same description on them.

Oh, and beef tacos with extra cheese.

Thanks but I already used the video on the "songs that mention house" video.

No. I was told several times that I was a typical Pisces, but I realized that if you read the description of Pisces traits it's bound to be correct for *someone.* Even a broken clock is right twice a day yada, yada and so forth.

And now I find out that I've actually been an Aquarius all this time.

I see no reason to discount it entirely. Perhaps there's something to it? It's impossible to know.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

Nope

I find studying the mayan astrological calendar fascinating, but I am not planting corn or sacrificing anything.... XD

 

[EMom]

No.

 

[TipsyTraveler]

Whenever someone asks my sign I tell them Ophiuchus (which is true) and that shuts the conversation down nicely because no one has any idea what that supposedly says about me or how to respond.

 

[E&Cmom]

No. I use to read my horoscope for fun but haven’t in years.

 

[Silver saucer]

nope

Why would anyone put credence in an idea where ancients observed this



Yet “saw” that?



I’d like whatever hallucinogenic drugs they were taking.

I don’t buy into the whole astrology thing, but I do think the moon does impact things to a certain extent. It certainly controls the tides and I think it can affect people me how they are feeling.

Yes, the moon does have an affect! As for other planets, researchers believe Saturn can prevent us from a major asteroid impact, but it cannot impact whether you get a job or are lucky in love this week.

I would say it's possible to know, since we can disprove several claims made by Astrology. I do keep my mind open for X the Unknown, but that's also the space for things where we just haven't found a scientific explanation for yet.

 

[Orion Nebula]

Not at all.

They didn’t have 42 TV streaming choices to pick from to entertain themselves at night.

So stare at the stars and imagine was their entertainment.

No, apparently a Virgo/Virgo match is the absolute worst match of all, ranked 0 out of 100. I was told this 5 months after I was married. We just hit 25 years so I don’t believe in it at all.

Well well! John here breaking all the rules and introducing his own third taco option to the scene. That's either very Sagittarius or very Ravenclaw of you.

Neither, I'm a pescatarian!

Zing!
