We would all like to be able to look into the future or predict how we might get on with someone we like. confused

Well I do sometimes. cool blushing

This site and others display peoples star signs so some people must think there is some thing to astrology.

Do you believe what your star sign says about you or is it just traits we would all like to think we have?

Have your most significant relationships been with supposedly compatible star signs? dunno Mine have

Or do you think it's all just a load of rot????? grin

think we tend to impute energy in a more preconditioned way from tea-cups stars and taro-cards so therefore putting out conditioned desires may qualify a some what turns up down the track

People of met that can look into future, cannot perceive time that future event will take to turn up

Yep I enjoy looking at my horoscope regularly, it's incredibly accurate most of the time .. and particularly right at the moment.

I always think that star signs themselves are basically the range of personalities that people fall into which is why when one describes the traits attributed to a certain one, a lot of people are amazed as it is usually spot on.

Gotta say as as much as I want them to work don't really think star signs do.
Seeing my most compatible start sign was my EX wife rolling on the floor laughing
Did date a few more of them and found they were very much like my ex. My feet kept moving on rolling on the floor laughing

my star sign seems to be pretty right for me, in most ways but I find my chinese zodiac even more accurate.

But wish it was as easy as picking a star sign to find the right person!

but I dont tend to put my cred into what the stars say day to day as generally they are written in such a way that you can interpret them for what is going on in your life. Either that or.. they want you to pay money to find out more!

Well, I think that there is validity in using them to check potential compatibility. The problem is when people use them to live their lives, and to make judgements about others.

I also have found the Chinese Astrology very useful in searching for compatible partners.

I would never ever again get involved with someone of my ex-wife's star sign. Just not compatible in any way really.

So for me, the star signs were an important factor, but not the sole factor in my choices.

John Stossel investigates the supernatural, ESP, psychic powers, astrology, voodoo and other ideas that many people believe simply because they want to believe.They care less about the proof because believing makes them happy. Those who believe were often unphased by what science has to say.Usually, before we’ll believe something, we want proof. Or as much proof as we can get. Before you buy a car, you try to check it out.Before I’ll try to skate across that frozen lake, I’m going to make sure the ice is solid. But when it comes to the supernatural, ESP, psychic powers, astrology and so forth, lots of people have a different standard.They believe because they want to believe. They care less about proof because believing makes them happy.grin

I imagine most of us with even a small amount of intelligence can logically reason that astrology is not scientifically proven or even logical. I hazard a guess most don't take it too seriously but rather as a bit of light hearted fun with just a curious passing interest.

Perhaps the reason some people take an interest is because it meets a few basic human needs.
A sense of assurance about the future
Some sense of their present situation being driven by another force and there for out of their control
And a feeling of being connected to something bigger than themselves and part of a big picture.

Be it light hearted entertainment or just giving reassurance in times of uncertainty, I don't see much harm in it as long as it doesn't replace rational decision making based on logic.

Most people that get involved in pseudoscience I very much doubt possess any logic even on a minor level. People that turn to their daily horoscope I very much doubt they do out of fun. Pseudoscience, religion, spirituality are human condition which bring havoc on societies and heavily impact on progressive evolution. Thankfully, there are people who are fighting on behalf of logic like James Randi. wine
