Astrology

[Needssome]

Okay......I use astrology just as a fun thing. Perhaps it's a little more believable once you factor in a whole bunch of things beyond your "sign". I believe more in Numerology, mostly because my mom did that while I was growing up. I never consider the sign of the person I'm dating or friends with. It just really doesn't seem relevant to me.

I'm a Virgo BTW.....and I'm not a neat-freak like they seem to think Virgos are...I fit most of the description....but then I fit a good deal of the descriptions of the other signs as well.

To believe in astrology is to believe in a 3000-year-old religion that says that burning balls of gas billions of miles away influence your life, despite the fact that thos burning balls of gas are nowhere near where they were 3000 years ago.

I do believe 3000 years is a blink of an eye to the lifespan of a star.

Nevertheless your point is taken. And I did read some of what you posted a link to.

aww. Steven you knew already i was "very sweet" but that's not the point dear...heh


virgos are not all neat freaks but i have found we like things a certain way....messy or neat...one extreme or the next...little grey area...(and not always limited to neat or messy)

I find astrology quite interesting.

I'm not really into it. I'm a Capricorn, and my personality suits that half the time, but not the other half. I don't consider it when I date someone.

I practice Runemal. I listen to that, as far as dating goes, anyway.

What are you thoughts?

There's an occultist by the name of Peter J. Carroll who would defend astrology and it's usefullness to the average lay person and yet ridicule it infront of his friends. He doesn't do so because he wants to fool one person or the other; he sees both sides (those who believe it's nonsense verses those who believe it's credible and reliable) as equally true.

Personally, I would think Astrology is more credible when a complete chart is drawn up for each person and then interpreted by a professional. I don't trust newspaper astrology predictions; I just can't put my trust in a generalization of one twelveth of the population.

I'm a Scorpio and everything they say about the sign is surprisingly accurate when it comes to my personality and such.

Whether astrology, numerology or psychology to name a few ways of learning of self and others. Is also interesting to see that each of the three will give many similiar notes of information about an individuals characteristics.
