I have a friend who is addicted to reading horoscopes and lives by them. She is very stressed out.

I keep telling her that it is the horoscopes that causing the stress.


She really needs help, what can I tell her to convince her that horoscopes are fakery.

I'll bet Anxiety will have the best answer.


Horoscopes are most DEFINITELY fake, no doubt about it. It's easy for somebody to think up something catchy, and then to have people believe it. rolleyes I have a friend who believes in them too, and I've never understood it myself. Believing in horoscopes is, to me, like believing in Santa Claus, The Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

You can always point out that most astrologers feel that those daily horoscopes you find in newspapers are too general to fit any one person. Astrologers argue that there are so many factors, outside of just your sunsign, that effect you.



Exactly! nod

Well, I think of everything in existence in terms of God and the universe...communication towards us individually (not as a whole) thru any one of an infinite number of avenues is possible in my mind, even if one of those avenues for a specific person is a horoscope on occasion.

In that manner, I "believe" in horoscopes...when they address specific issues within an individual that already exist. I chalk it up to reading that horoscope on that particular day was God/the universe wanting to use that particular horoscope to communicate something to me or to others...not that the guy writing these things down in the newsroom is clarevoyant or anything.


Great answer. I used to believe in horoscopes just like my friend in question. I became addicted also. I would aviod certain situations on certain days according to the reading. I became worried constantly. I eventually became physically ill.

Then one day I burned all the books I had.


clapping clapping Good for you, you did the right thing. Too bad you can't get your friend to change her mind about horoscopes. lol I call horoscopes "horrorscopes", because they always give you the number of stars in correlation to what type of day you're supposed to have (one star for poor, four for excellent). They never get those damn stars right! lol
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

i use to have bad luck on those days that i read the horoscope before my day began, and thats how i stopped reading them... I might glance at them now and then while reading a magazine, but thats about it...
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I have a friend who's also a horroscope addict.

She sent me a link to a 'free' in depth horroscope which she said was scarily accurate and would change my mind about horroscopes.

It was a generic sample report to demonstrate the kind of thing you'd get if you bought one. My friend read it and believed it!

Just goes to show how much general wisdom they put into the horroscopes, stuff that applies to everyone - "don't be foolish with money" kinda rubbish.
