Astrology

My mother just insisted on reading out a horoscope to me. She is a true believer (with a poor grasp of science). I think it’s crap.

  • I properly believe in astrology
  • I half-heartedly believe in it
  • I don’t believe in it at all, but like to look at horoscopes for a laugh
  • I hate astrology and horoscopes piss me off

I get inordinately angry about these things.

To be fair, astrology is pretty harmless but clairvoyants, fortune tellers, and (particularly) mediums who prey on people’s weakness and grief to make money… :rage:

At my catholic school they explained to us that it is the devil’s work so of course I hate it! Fuck you devil!

Are you not doing the devil’s work then?

I hate it even more when they start getting into health stuff based on no science whatsoever.

When I asked someone in the office what they’d gotten up to over the weekend they started with “I’ve gotten really into tarot cards recently!” and I shut my brain down in less than a second, nodded no more than three times for the next minute, left the break room without saying anything other than “good stuff”.

Amazed this is still a thing tbh, seems like something Victorian people would have wised up to

I actually know how to do tarot card readings (and have a set) from being brought up by new age nuts, but I don’t really believe in it. I guess it’s interesting from a perspective of analysing how you interpret the card in relation to your life and what that says about how you’re seeing/interpreting things, rather than being some mystic truth. Fuck charging anyone money for that though.

Getting a card like this is pretty self-explantory.

I suppose you’ve got an excuse:

“Why are you so awful?”
“Sorry, I’m just astrologically terrible, I can’t help it”

my pals ex was seriously into astrology and she always tried to crowbar it into conversations, oh how we mocked her for it.

My mother has ridiculous conversations, like tried to convince me jupiter squaring mercury retrograde broke my laptop battery. She’s also really prejudiced against certain starsigns. Like someone will be fine, until she finds out their birthday, then she’s suddenly convinced they’re a bad person. It’s really exhausting to listen to.

haha she sounds like my pals ex.
in the pub one night and I mentioned a particular issue I was having at work and she started banging on about fucking planets aligning were causing these issues…my pal jumped in ‘Lo-Pan, please don’t, let it go’ when he saw I was ready to go off on one :slight_smile:

Was clearly mercury retrograde though. I mean that guy, when he teams up with Jupiter is powerful enough to melt laptop batteries, so your life is toast against those planets.
