Astrology.
 

I know there's a few guys on the GT forum that are believers in the "Stars" and their influence on peoples characters etc.

I believe there's something in it but don't go the " whole hog " as it were.

I'd be interested in what the rest of you think.

3.There's something in it.

I remember in basic training this guy from Maine was a Wiccan. He "read" palms in fact he was just an observant person and listened to conversations which is how he "knew" so much about people.

I've met plenty of people the same sign as me (Sagittarius) who are in no way shape or form similar to my personality.

Way back when I see the logic in such thinking. If the world is the center of the universe surely the moon and the stars in the night sky are a way for the gods to tell us things.

"The fault, dear Stealhead, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are underlings.":shifty:
"O, 'swear not by the moon, the' inconstant moon,
That monthly changes in her circle orb," :/\\!! Everything predicted for my sign always becomes strangely so...tis' weird and even a little fishy but then I'm a Pisces.:O:

My "ex" was really into it.

Nothing but just another way to give people an excuse not to think for themselves.
A waste of time at best, a waste of money and loss of free thinking at worst.

Although, the Moon does in fact influence our behavior.

Betonov's afterthought there is perhaps telling. Isn't it pretty much accepted that the moon's phases affect some people? And a force powerful enough to create the tides on earth must likely touch us in other ways, so is it such a leap to imagine that planets might also exert some influence on our neural development in the womb?

Of course that may all be so much bs; I never look at these forecasts or give any credence to them as far as "foretelling" things goes because in my view that side of it is most definitely bs, so I guess I'm somewhat on the fence with you, eisenwurst.
(SPOOKY!)

That's 9/10s of all Wiccan really, knowledge of things taking place around you, be it peoples behaviour, animal behaviour or plantlife behaviour. Knowing what herbs make what remedies and so forth. Just a basic grounding in natural behaviour.

Of course, for this Vincent Price and Ecuador his horse will visit you.

The Moon influences us because it creates dark and less dark nights by it's phases and a full moon was more dangerous because predators had an easy way of spotting us so we learned to be more alert and agressive during a full moon.
Planets and stars are simply just too far away to influence us. Neither durign development or once we're born.


One more thing:

Wiccans are what ''hippies'' and ''tree huggers'' should be.
Non brainwashed, non hysterical, non loud and reasonable people that understand that being one with nature is not wearing hemp clothes and writting blogs.

Trust me, after many many years in EMS, the full moon does have an effect on people.

But it's a simple answer, there's more light during a full moon, so more activity tends to occur during a full moon. Even in urban areas which are filled with artificial light, the dark shadows are less dark.


The gravity of the doctor had more affect on you during birth than all the other planets' gravities. So until they start factoring in the location of the OBGYN in Pisces, astrology is a sham.

It's been proven, in study after study, that horoscope's are total bunk. It's called the Barnum Effect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_effect

Rubbish just like reading tea leafs its all rubbish.

a pattern of stellar nuclear furnaces, several trillion light years apart, just happen to form a 'shape' in the universe depending on the point of view, and some idiotic nerd says, they can predict the future from this. Yeah ok. :/\\!!

Keep him talking folks, I'll just ring the funny farm!! :haha:

I can never cut open the tea bag properly, I hate it when it does that. Its not as if I never saw it coming!! :timeout:

The wife said, I can foresee you with a brush and dustpan in a few seconds!! Bloody eck, she is a medium and I never knew. Probably because I used to be , but am now an extra large

on the subject of East 17, in that video. They did a 'comeback' gig in Dublin, 30 people turned up!!:har:
