Astrological Experiment

[klowndog]

I'm not really into astrology, but sometimes I'll read mine and be like WOW, how did they know. But I was thinking, with all the talk lately about genetics, I have been thinking about not only physical traits, but emotional/inner traits such as attitude/fortitude/disposition, etc., which are just as important to be a good bodybuilder.

So I was thinking, if astro. signs are for real, then there should be alot of Taurus, Aires, and Leos here. So this thread is a way for me to test my theory. Thanks for your participation.

Well, the astrological gibberish they print is usually something general and something the reader wants to hear. For example, today mine(on Yahoo)was, "You haven't seen a friend for a while, and they are eager to hear from you today." but since I am a Pisces and Pisces are known to be gullible, dreamy / impractical, and escapist, I read them religously everyday so I know whether it's safe to leave my house.

I don't believe in astrology.

I see there are many Sag's here...I am one too. I have read that the parts of the body ruled by Sagittariuses are thighs and hips.

Huh.

What if your born on a cusp. Then what ?

I just read through the horoscope of all 12 signs today and found I had similarites and things in common with all of them.

I think it's a farce and just a fun way to pass time.

an ex girlfriends mom used to do the horiscope for her husbands newspaper....she just made stuff up.

Personally, I find this to be interesting. I wouldn't base any major life decisions on it, but there is potential guidance in some of it.

If you're on the cusp, your fcked. j/k




maybe

Everybody has every trait, doesn't matter what star sign you are.

Ehh.....

This data is inconclusive with my hypothesis. Inconceivable! Worth a try though. I'm a Libra, which is the scales, so that's why I'm so good with the weights, jk. Thanks for playing along y'all.

About twenty years ago a friend had me create some "futuristic" computer booths for an event. I literally had people lined up at booths to get their picture made on the computer and printed out.

One of the booths I did was for horoscopes. I put in about two hundred phrases taken from previous horoscopes and a random generator that would concatenate four or five of them. People were quite pleased with the "accuracy" of the predicitons.

I don't put much into horoscopes either but they are fun to read sometimes. It's like reading the fortune in the fortune cookies.

LOL fortune cookies. I wonder if anyone has ever had a life changing epiphany after reading one of those? I still honor the tradition, I do not share my fortune with anyone. If you do, it won't work.

I think they have that same one at the fair each year in my hometown. Is it 6 feet tall with a bunch of flashing lights all over it, looks like the control panel from a 1970's Star Trek episode?

Something to consider when it comes to these things is stellar drift.
The stars aren't in the same positions now as when the horoscopes were originally written.

Neither is the calander

I feel the same way.

I think that the people that buy into this will read their horoscope and then make their life or look at their life in a way that makes the horoscope true.

My horoscope today says: "You will be on a bodybuilding website reading posts by other members, polling your Cancer birthdate, drinking a protein shake and letting a loud fart slip out at work because you were paying more attention to the posts than your own bodily functions. Also....if you look up now...the time is 9:07am."

I don't know man...that is eerily acurate to me.
