Ϲharlie Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 It's been forever since I last read my horoscope, but it's been my experience that horoscopes are vague enough that they can be shoehorned into just about any scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Wright Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 as an astrophysics person, i've got a lot of beef with astrological happenings and horoscopes. i think astrology is a malignant tumor on mankind. also, the word astronomy means, "account of the stars" and astronomy meaning, "arrangement of the stars," so astrologists took our word too. i happen to prefer the way astronomy sounds, but i'm sure that's only cause i grew up hating the word astrology (before i actually knew either's etymologies). they're designed to be just vague enough so anyone can easily find overlap, whilst obvious contradictions are effortlessly ignored. as a pisces, apparently i'm good at art, "susceptible to change" (i guess it's trying to say "accepting" but susceptible is poor word choice imo), and desperately afraid of ridicule. i only identify with the change thing (using my personal interpretation of the phrase), and vehemently disagree with the other two. yet, nightmarre, another pisces, seems to strongly agree. or at least agree somewhat. i know this isn't the time or place but when it comes to topics i'm very passionate about, i can't help myself! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Alear Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 (edited) they're designed to be just vague enough so anyone can easily find overlap, whilst obvious contradictions are effortlessly ignored. as a pisces, apparently i'm good at art, "susceptible to change" (i guess it's trying to say "accepting" but susceptible is poor word choice imo), and desperately afraid of ridicule. i only identify with the change thing (using my personal interpretation of the phrase), and vehemently disagree with the other two. yet, nightmarre, another pisces, seems to strongly agree. or at least agree somewhat. "Susceptible" implies a somewhat unconscious tendency to be malleable, while "accepting" suggests that it's something the person is aware of, a part of who they are that they are aware of. IMO anyway. Are you saying it's a poor word choice for describing you in particular? Nevermind, that's obviously what you were saying. I think horoscopes are stupid too, but I don't really see how they're malignant. Edited September 21, 2015 by Severian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleece Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Most zodiac stuff likes to make leos sound like they're extremely self-absorbed and dramatic and really really outgoing and materialistic and "MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEME" which doesn't really fit me at all so no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interest Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 (edited) Let's see... Libra Strength Keywords: - Diplomatic - Graceful - Peaceful - Idealistic - Hospitable Seems mildly accurate. Libra Weakness Keywords: - Superficial - Vain - Indecisive - Unreliable Unreliable and indecisive, definitely. Not sure about those other 2. "Libras dislike hard work," Sounds about right. "They are also likely to hide or bend their own true feelings" Surprisingly accurate despite what some people might think... I guess overall yes.
