    Default Do you believe in Horoscopes

    Someone told me it was totally wrong, to believe in horoscopes. They say you should take life one day at a time. Some people say that horscopes can tell you how to advoid certain thing in the day.


    I want to know how many people believe in tarot card reading, palm reading, mothly horscope, daily ....... etc. Why do you think it is important to view them!

    Those who dont think so, your opion is welcome also,

    I dont hold a LOT of stock in daily horoscopes but I do feel that I am a true Aries through and through. Also, people in my life all tend to resemble their zodiac sign. People are often impressed when I can accurately gauge their zodiac sign after observing their personality over a relatively short period of time.

    Yea I do think the zodiac sign personailty traits. Has some truth to it! I just don't get how every aries, or any other sign. Can have the same horscope for the same day.

    I also dont get whats so entertaining about reading something false. That dose not make you laught.

    I think that getting really into tarot card readings can fuck up your desistiny. Like maybe your tarot card reader will tell you you are supposedd to meet a man named John. So that night you meet a dude named John, you don't really dig him but you make plans to go out with him Sat night.....Well,maybe you were supposed to go out saturday night with your girls and meet a different John and now the situation is all karmially fucked. Follow me?

    Horoscopes? Hahahah. Total bull. If you want to know the truth, you have to go back to the tried and true science of reading goat and chicken entrails.

    No! Reason. I worked with a man who did. His horoscope said that he was going to have a bad day at work. This man was a manager. Co. was doing very well. He took a PL day....GOT FIRED! That was the reason why! He came in to work and asked about it, they said he did not give them enough notice....

    i dont bother reading my gemini or cancer (cusp baby) daily or even weekly, or monthly star signs. i do however believe in my chinese sign- the rat. its far more 'me' then gemini or cancer, and being between two star signs is super conflicting!

    I am a Gemini and have only a few characteristics of actually being one. I am flighty and spontaneous but that's about it. Most of my horoscopes are not accurate. I think I am more like a Cancer than a true Gemini.

    Most tarot card readers haven't been very accurate with me. Palm readers are usually dead on though.

    It's better to learn how to read your own cards. I use the Osho Zen cards.

    I don't feel tarot cards have anything to do with your future. They offer direction. You control your future no matter what.

    Your sun sign (discussed in horoscopes) are a small factor in your personal astrology.

    I like to read them sometimes for fun but I don't believe in them. As has been mentioned I think they're more suggestive.

    I read my own cards but I'll get a pro occassionally too. Someone here said that their card readings have been off/wrong or possibly misleading. That's why I said that reading your own cards would be better.

    I like Osho Zen because ... i just do! The cards make sense to me and i like the messages they give. Traditional Raider Waite is kind of archaic (the artwork). I have those cards too but never use them.

    It's all personal preference and working with whatever you resonate with.

    I read cards like this: "What is something for me to rememer today?" You know how some people read a passage in the Bible for that day's guidance? That's pretty much how I read cards.\

    I've asked specific things too - related to an old relationship. The cards were right. I tried to ignore the messages but they were right. Kind of freaky to some people I'm sure.

    Has nothing to do with what's been predetermined. It has more to do with possibilities. You can make things happen or not. The cards can tell you if things are working in your favor for xxx to happen though. If you don't like what you hear you can ask what things need to change in order for things to be mor in your favor.

    How do you know what exactly to change in your life? When using the cards so you have to a good sense or know you intuition? I was also told you should not read you cards alot! So how much should you read your cards. Someone told me in highschool every six month is a good time inbetween.

    I think it all depends on *how* you're reading them. Like anything, it's not to get dependant on them.

    I don't believe in fortune-telling. If you use the cards or anything for that, then I don't think that's smart.

    Not in the slightest.

    Base my life and understanding of myself off of star groupings from thousands of years ago? No thank you.
    I'm a strong believer that astrology is only so popular because of its placebo effect. If you want to believe, you make it true.

    I agree with this. One of the benefits of horoscopes/astrology is that it helps some people stay focused on personal and professional goals.

    There's a guy called James Randi. http://www.randi.org/

    He's had a million dollar prize available for about 30 years now for anyone that can demonstrate paranormal powers under laboratory conditions.

    Money's still there.

    Why? Because James Randi is a superlative stage magician, so the probability of anyone faking paranormal power by slight of hand is zero.

    Only way you'll get the money is by genuine paranormal powers - and none of those have passed the laboratory test.

    All anyone with a genuine ability to read the future with horoscopes has to do is make an unambiguous prediction of the future. When it comes to pass, they're $1,000,000 richer.

    James Randi's still waiting.....

    Exactly. i voted in the middle because the newspaper ones are really no good (I'm pretty sure they aren't even done by astrologers). Sun signs just don't give you any really specific information. It's like the platform used to paint the rest of your personality. I only belive horoscopes done by actual astrologers. The best personal horoscopes to look at are luner returns.

    That is if you actually believe in that stuff in the first place...
