To clear the misunderstanding, if you follow the Western zodiac system, your sign remains the same. The latter is following Eastern astrology, which is based on our relationship to the stars, as opposed to the Western zodiac that is based on our relationship to the sun. All is well, for those of us that would suffer a heart attack if we found out that our beloved sign, which, to say the least, fits our personality especially well, has changed. Seriously, people even get tattoos of their zodiac signs. Proud to be a Libra and a firm Western astrology believer, I would be one of those individuals.

So what are horoscopes about anyway? A more official definition says that a horoscope is a prediction of someone's future based on the relative positions of the planets. For me, it is a fun way to learn about myself and analyze my day. One might wonder: Who is crazy enough to believe that their future depends on nothing more than the position of stars? After all, we humans are so powerful we can shape our own futures. Please and thank you. End of story. Willing to take a chance and be entertained and possibly amused, I have decided to look at my daily horoscope regularly and to allow to be named a "horoscope watcher". My purpose: test horoscopes personally and see what effects they may have on me, my life and my beliefs. My underlying question: Are horoscopes really worth the time?

I know that I simply refuse to give up my Gemini status. I have attributed half the problems of my life to it and then, of course, I can attribute the other half to the twin phenomenon. One time, when I was a reporter, they asked me (gasp) to write the daily horoscope because it hadn't come in that day (before the Internet). I refused on principle; I was willing to make up the weather though.
ReplyDeleteThat is actually quite funny. I wouldn't do it either, although I am quite sure that someone does in fact make up horoscopes based on their own thoughts rather than the stars. I also fit my description of a Libra so well and use my sign as an excuse when I cannot make a decision. If one is a believer, it is bound to happen.
