Astrology - Yea or Nay?

Being an extremely pragmatic, level-headed and grounded sort of gal, I say there is absolutely no credence to astrology.
But that's only because I am a first decan Taurus. 😆
Without exception, my best mates were all born under compatible stars and the converse is true of folks I'd wish would would exit the planet.
What say you?

    As a man of science, space geek and sufferer of people on dating apps asking what my sign is, I'd like to speak for all rational people by (slightly arrogantly) proclaiming that astrology is utter bollocks, grounded in pseudoscience and woo.

    I'm the sign with the cow, or bull, or whatever it is. So is my ex, we couldn't be any less alike whatsoever.

    I think it’s a made up belief system the same as any other. That being said, I love it. I like to think observations of the stars, planets, asteroids all the straight up math involved…. makes a little more sense than other belief systems based off nothing. Where’s the math!😅
    I feel like it might be a more seasonal thing as far as personalities goes. Like winter vs summer babies. Fresh out of your mom baby, born into frigid temperatures. First exposure to the world would be quiet and cozy. You may be a more reserved person.
    Summer babies are born into outdoor parties and activities. I’d say they’d typically be more social????
    Anyway that didn’t have a lot to do with astrology but that’s my loose reasoning why they typically make sense.
    Every few months I fall down the astrology rabbit hole again. Usually when I meet someone new. 😅 ♒️

    @_Dan1985 a/s/l?

    I kind of do believe in the sun sign traits. I used to be a textbook Pisces until life and people and things happened.

    And, when my nephew was born, my sister's horoscope said someone new would come into her life.

    So....yes and no? :)

    Sadly I do. But I'm an IT engineer as well as old. Haven't thought about IRC in about two decades.

    It's total malarkey but I'll use the fact I'm a Gemini to my advantage when I want to.

    My crazy ex sister in law was totally into astrology...and angels...she lost me completely when I joked once my first house was haunted and she replied saying she does feel a presence. 🤣😂🤣 So ya if she's into astrology clearly it's ridiculous

    I'm torn today, but I would say fortune cookies are making headway for my new woo, but I could change my mind and it depends on what my horoscope says tomorrow. j/k Cheers.
