According to my Astronomy Professor, He says that astrology is completely wrong because since stars move every 5 year, people have to change signs every 5 years.

Example: if your a pisces, then your really a aquarious,etc..

that reminds me of these two lines that stuck with me while i was reading up Scorpian men:

-don't mess with a scorpio man unless and until you are sure that this is the man you want.

-if you have any of the qualities that a scorpio man hates, don’t even start dating him.

Without us Gems the world would be boring...

I'm a Gem with Capricorn rising and moon in Aries...I've gotten that look when I tell people I'm a Gemini, LOL!

The bolded part is important because even if the chart is the hand dealt to us at birth we still must choose how to play that hand.

The branch of astrology that deals with that issue is called progression.

There's no such thing




Kidding, I'm a totally introverted Leo woman

CalhounSq said:

Introverted Leos are rare One of my friends is like that and he's a real deep dude. I have Mars in Leo in house 7 and it took me forever to learn how to get along with them. Good peeps!

Stubborn and materialistic (Typical Taurean)

i am sometimes curous but thats it don't judge a person on it wholly

My sister is one .

PricelessHo said:

That is some true shit Scorp men are very controlling, jealous and possessive. Some signs match well with them, but I'm a free spirited Sag, so it will NEVER work


Smooches;)

MsMisha319 said:

Ike & Tina Turner = Scorp & Sag

I have never had that happen....but it's good to know I am crazy since I am a Gemini.

ernestsewell said:

My thoughts entirely.

I've only met a couple of people who really took astrology seriously,
and they were both complete loons.

Yeah yeah, I'm a bitchy Gemini Sun/Scorpio Rising.

Hilarious!

I looooove reading my star sign but I'm not 'into' it, really.
Just harmless fun. Although virtually everything I've ever read about Librans is on the money. I am a Libran through and through.


One of my ex-colleagues - another Libran - was obsessed with astrology - she even mae reference to it in her leaving email when she left the company. And, when I was in school, I used to have a paper round delivering newspapers. I'd leave school at 3:30pm, go to the shop and - sometimes - I'd have to go totally out of my way, before even starting my round, to deliver a tabloid to the crazy owner's house so she could read her stars. At 4pm. What the hell what she doing all day???!

Mathematicians.




Just kidding.

sinisterpentatonic said:

I can see that.

Plus, how many times did you say "that just doesn't sound like" whoever you're reading about?

I dunno, I have quite a few Leo women in my life (my mother mainly) who goes ballistic if attention is diverted from them to someone else. It has to be about them if its not they assume it is but then I have friends I work with who are not like this at all

Cinnie said:

even if you read the wrong sign?

not really only one time recently but they were mad.

usually i get along with/have lot of sagittarius pisces taurus and capricorns around me trippy.

I don't think many know my zodiac sign, so no!

I saw this programme, once, and they conducted an experiment with all the audience members. Everyone had an envelope under ther seat, with a horoscope written in it; they were told to open it and read the contents but not tell anyone what it said.

Once they'd done that, the presenter asked the audience to stand up if they related to what they'd read. The entire audience stood up.

Basically, they were using the 'Barnum' syndrome - named after the circus owner - by using language which appealed to everyone. Something for everyone, that is. Apparently, this is something a lot of astrologers do which is why so many us read our stars and think it's something we can instantly relate to.

I saw a similar show, and all the people had the exact same note. But everyone was previously convinced astrology was a real thing. Their minds changed after they got had.

ernestsewell said:

I saw something like that too. can't remember what the show was called. Instead the person was reading the same horoscope to different people on the street.

November Scorpio, female here too.

Have any of you ever had your chart done, based on the date, time and place of your birth? Here is a real good one that I discovered some time back:

All's you have to do is fill in the requested information, and hit submit. Now normally, I don't really believe in this astrological stuff. But some of the stuff that my chart said about my personality was dead on accurate!

ernestsewell said:

Sounds like Derren Brown's Trick of the Mind show from 3 or 4 years ago.
He got a group of people together and got them to write down all the info
needed to do a full astrological chart, plus a couple of random other things
like drawing round their hand etc. Then he got them all to put their info into
unmarked envelopes and he was gonna go away and do charts on them all.
He said that he would use this to create individual personality profiles for
them all... or at least that's what they thought.

An hour or so later they got their profiles, and were asked how accurate
they were. They all rated them between 80-99% accurate. It was then
revealed that he'd given them all exactly the same profile, which he'd
written the previous week and hadn't even opened their envelopes.

He's repeated this experiment many times in several different countries,
and got the same result every time.

I've seen similar things before which proved that astrology and other
similar 'fortune telling'/'profiling' practices are complete BS.
