I think it's a given that most members aren't into astrology and consider it to be unfounded. I also believe that we can subconsciously look for 'meaning' in order to confirm our biases.

With the above said, I'm going to include a link that details certain characteristics per birth date (and not ambiguously) . To my surprise, I did actually notice precise characteristics with ex girlfriends (more so, than not) - per their birth date.

Warning: the page does have a bit of a "fluff" appearance, but overlook it and click on a date of someone you know. Maybe you'll not see similarities or maybe you will.

The zodiac is based on the night sky +1000 years ago and since then it's shifted so your actual starsign is the next one along.
Like any fortune telling, cold reading I.e mediumship, palm reading etc, it's just a series of Barnum statements-statements that apply to everyone.

This is no different then all the hocus pocus being written on many threads.

You should just write another one of those BPD thread to make a hocus pocus sound credible and all the cry babies will eat it up.

I read a book once by a guy who did fake cold reading. He explained how it was all done, etc.

He talked about how he went on a talk show,as a fake psychic.

He told the audience he was going to demonstrate, by picking people and giving them fake psychic readings.

Even then, when he was done, everybody thought he was really a psychic.

You can slam this kind of stuff as being stupid, or you can leverage this knowing most people will eat it up like candy.

Whats the difference between a con artist saying "hey your a great person good things come your way"
Or me saying it to someone?
Only real difference is intention.

Con artists want to rob people.

Stringpullers want to create happy vibrations in people.
 

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.

You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

As for me, it's important to remember that astrology should never be used as the sole determinant of someone's character or future. It's just one aspect to consider in the bigger picture.

Hi Black Widow Void,
Well if Isack Newton had an open mind on Astrology,who are we to judge?
Sometimes it does seem to hold true,and then for those that read their Horoscope,there can be such a thing as self fulfilling prophesies....Horace The Gypsy reckons I'm in with a chance tonight so I am off out to the Club.

I had a conversation with Black Widow Void a while back on this. This birthday.org thing is quite right about me as the ‘Charming controller’

I ran some birthdays including my parents and past relationships and they are accurate. I’d take that over a coin flip any day. Kudos on the find!

The "star sign" has evolved into being "solar month sign", so the astronomical precession of the axis does not change the applicable dates in the year.

I am a Scorpio (both Sun & Moon); due to the precession of the axes, as well as the long span of Virgo along the ecliptic, early Scorpios today are Virgos (i.e., the Incel sign).

Peace and Quiet

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

The babylonians and sumerians invented astrology, probably 300 to 200 bc or so. It was originally meant to forecast the fortunes of society as a whole. The parlor trick, tell your fortune act didn't become a thing until medieval times.

I don't really believe it, but I think it would behoove guys to at least learn some basics because most women eat that sh!t up and it can lead to a lot of interesting conversations on first dates.

It’s an easy way to sexualize a conversation if you know your basics.

Women tend to love the idea of inevitability and the whimsical stuff.

You can say stuff like “well, you know what they say about Scorpio and Pisces…right?”. In this case they’re supposed to have instant chemistry - which has played out for me personally repeatedly - but I digress. They love this shyte.

Use every tool you have at your disposal, always.
