I'm an Aquarius.

Fun fact, Mikasa Ackerman is also an Aquarius.

Are you saying I am doomed to have unhealthy attachments to certain people?

Oh, and pile-ons on a simple mistake still remains one of Era's ugliest traits.

It's no more crazy than religion. If someone finds peace with it and it gives them hope in their life then who really cares.

I can't deal with anyone who takes astrology seriously, it's not going to affect anything, because it's double speak that makes it easy to associate anything that happens to it.

In my experience, no, it's just fun to compare with people that you already know you're compatible with.

Honestly, I think it's funny how passionately angry some people get about people liking stuff like this.

If we're talking about astrology (not astronomy), like any belief that undermines science and reason, it's gateway to homeopathy, anti-vaxxers and global warming deniers. I do take it very seriously as it is very dangerous.
Yup. It's the same reason I never trust people who say shit like "I'm a ravenclaw". they really think that hogwarts exists and is just hidden from view, but wizards just like jk right books about it?

We're all stupid creatures. We behave in stupid ways and we believe stupid things.

Can tell you from experience that this isn't always the case. It's possible to be casually into astrology and not also be profoundly ignorant as well. Humans are dynamic you know?

I used to think that, and then I watched every older person I know who bought into that stuff spiral into Crazytown.

That's why I stick to the harmless science of phrenology and eugenics.

When I was young I didn't understand the logic but now that I'm half dead I think it's cute. You gotta go through the entire arc of rejection and come back around to a quaint appreciation for the vapidity of silly things like this.

Wow. This is quite a take. Correlation doesn't equal causation. I know plenty of people that are educated and in science fields that are anti-vaxxers. An unusual number of nurses are anti-vax (in central ohio) that I know.

Well, some famous assto-something told me I will be rich, successful, and such, 10 out of 10. Only my mom said I'm a failure and shit.

spoiler: I trust them, not my mom.

Of course it isn't always the case. I can tell you from experience there are also right-wing conservatives who are not bigots and there are soccer fans who don't like beer. Humans are dynamic you know? But, it doesn't matter how many exceptions there are, because it's about messaging. To me, this is like saying "it's just a joke" when someone says a slur or something - because humans are dynamic and all that. In a world where a growing number of people don't believe in global warming or refuse to vaccinate their children, you don't see a problem with this?

Astrology is fun for the socializing aspect. It's a nice icebreaker. And no it is not a gateway to anti-vaxxing or other shit. What the hell?

My mom is an RN. Most of her friends are RNs.
They're ALL anti-vax. They also all believe in astrology.

It said I was going to be offended today. Typical for an Aries.
But it also said I'll find love.
Again!

So I'm looking forward to that today. Not much time left though.....

I really wanna do my "I'm an Asparagus" joke, but I've already said it in another astrology thread so now I gotta wait a couple of years before I say it again. I was really proud of that joke though, pat myself on the back.

People don't like to follow their horoscopes when it gets too real.
