No. It's a crock of bullsh*t. I'm an Aquarius, and I possess all of the traits commonly associated with Aquarius. But if you think for one second that stars billions upon billions of miles away from the earth have any effect on the kind of person you become, you're sorely mistaken.
Your Horoscope For Today by Al Yankovic Lyrics: Aquarius There's travel in your future when your tongue freezes to the back of a speeding bus Fill that void in your pathetic life by playing Whack-A-Mole seventeen hours a day Pisces Try to avoid any Virgos or Leos with the Ebola virus You are the true Lord of the Dance, no matter what those idiots at work say Aries The look on your face will be priceless when you find that forty pound watermelon in your colon Trade toothbrushes with an albino dwarf, then give a hickey to Meryl Streep Taurus You will never find true happiness - what you gonna do, cry about it? The stars predict tomorrow you'll wake up, do a bunch of stuff, and then go back to sleep That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today Gemini Your birthday party will be ruined once again by your explosive flatulence Your love life will run into trouble when your fiance hurls a javelin through your chest Cancer The position of Jupiter says you should spend the rest of the week face down in the mud Try not to shove a roll of duct tape up your nose while taking your driver's test Leo Now is not a good time to photocopy your butt and staple it to your boss's face, oh no Eat a bucket of tuna-flavored pudding, then wash it down with a gallon of strawberry Quik Virgo All Virgos are extremely friendly and intelligent - except for you Expect a big surprise today when you wind up with your head impaled on a stick That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today Now you may find it inconceivable or at the very least a bit unlikely that the relative position of the planets and the stars could have a special deep significance or meaning that exclusively applies to only you, but let me give you my assurance that these forcasts and predictions are all based on solid, scientific, documented evidence, so you would have to be some kind of moron not to reaize that every single one of the is absolutely true. Where was I? Libra A big promotion is just around the corner for someone much more talented that you Laughter is the very best medicine, remember that when your appendix bursts next week Scorpio Get ready for an unexpected trip when you fall screaming from an open window Work a little harder on improving your low self-esteem, you stupid freak Sagittarius All your friends are laughing behind your back (kill them) Take down all those naked pictures of Ernest Borgnine you've got hanging in your den Capricorn The stars say that you're an exciting and wonderful person, but you know they're lying If I were you, I'd lock my doors and windows and never never never never never leave my house again That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (yay yay yay yay yay) That's your horoscope for today
The history of astrology is very fascinating. Early in our history it was interwoven with astronomy and it has influenced the human race immeasurably. Cool stuff to learn about, but that's about it.
I don't believe any of that stuff. But I'm really surprised at how many people I meet that do take this stuff seriously. It seems like it's almost 50/50 in terms of believers/doubters.
I've never believed it. But everyone tells me I'm a typical pisces. And I've been noticing that my friends who are pisces show piscean traits, but then again, the descriptions are usually so vague and broad that it could apply to lots of people. So I guess I'm agnostic, or in percentages, 95% believe thats its bull, 5% open to the possibility. If nothing more, it's an interesting conversation topic when there's nothing left to say. I find that girls are especially into these kinda things
my freaking coworkers talk about signs all the time. well, it's just the females. all personality reads shall come with the obligatory, "what's your sign?"
It is the same as religion, started as one, and proven to be incredibly inaccurate, just as all the other religions are... DD
Try this test... At a gathering of twelve or more, randomly pass out unmarked Zodiac descriptions to everyone present but tell each guest it is a description of their sign. Ask everyone if the description fits. For example, who believes the following describes them? If it does, say so and then say what your sign is... "Aggressive, willful, powerful, assertive; enthusiastic about whatever interests you at the moment, focused in short bursts, unlikely to sustain interest in the long term; ego expression; adventurious, pioneering; Warrior-type energy; impatient with having to cooperate with others, works best alone or in leadership role; unconcerned with approval or acceptance; lacks persistance and stamina; honest and forthright, "what you see is what you get", not given to airs or pretenses; the first expression (or incarnation ) of spirit within a new cycle on the physical plane." What can you surmise from this experiment?
That my friends and I just wasted 15 minutes when we could have been chugging beers and chasing skirt. DD
Not only do I think it's a crock of BS... ...I usually find that the people who believe in it are people who are very miserable and empty inside. They feel that they need to find a reason for the behaviors and actions in their lives, and they find answers in astrology (even when the answers aren't really there). Usually, these people deep inside are scared, confused, hurt, or lonely. It also seems that people who truly believe in it aren't rating very high on the old intelligence meter. The answers to life aren't in the stars or in the date you were born. The answers don't exist. Cope, and keep moving forward. -- droxford
