itt we make apologies for esoteric belief systems that we wouldnt dream of making for religious belief systems
Christianity has enough apologists of its own without me putting my oar in.
For what it's worth, I don't believe in astrology and never have done. I'm inclined to believe that the various correlations between certain occupations and specific planetary ascendancies and alignments are purely coincidental. But I cannot say with 100% certainty that this is the case, just as I cannot say with any certainty that Jesus didn't feed 5000 people with a few loaves and a handful of fish.

At least astrology is funny though, particularly when your own description couldn't be more wrong.

These folks are selfless, spiritual and very focused on their inner journey. They also place great weight on what they are feeling. Yes, feelings define Pisceans, and it's not uncommon for them to feel their own burdens (and joys) as well as those of others.
Bzzzt. Thanks for playing, better luck next time.

1) Applying particular traits to every individual that is born in a specific month has about as much relation to "proper" astrology as newspaper horoscopes.
2) I'm a Sagittarius you mong.

Pfft, that's such a Scorpio thing to say.
You're lucky us Librans are a forgiving bunch!

And here I was expecting a thread about Disney's yellow dog being demoted (from where to where, I dunno, which was half the reason I popped in).
Phoey...

And here I was expecting a thread about Pluto being demoted, not Stront's latest misguided crusade.

Yeah they do a lot of plundering in that region.

Projecting anger on well-meaning friends and dear ones is a no-no under this temporary and yet acute martialization of the psychic atmosphere!
Personally, I'm fortunate in that venus is rising over the third star to the left of Jupiter's ascent into Shrewsbury, so I'm looking forwards to meeting an elderly woman bearing tidings of moderate joy sometime after 2pm tommorrow :thumb:

Astrology survived the discovery of Pluto in 1930, and I don't expect its removal will cause it any great inconvenience.
The ability of shysters, con artists and frauds to pull the wool over the eyes of (and extract money from the wallets of) people with no critical thinking skills has survived pretty much everything.
