Not to be that guy… But stars and planets definitely have the potential to affect all of our lives, just not in any positive w-- the sun goes supernova
Or, rather than supernova (or ballooning to a giant, in a few billion years) just the flares and corona mass ejections.
Which in turn are influenced by (for one) Jupiter’s influence on the sun cycle.
Actually, this planet affects my life every day.
The stars and planets affect the lives of astronomers every day though.
Not true, I will travel to view a solar eclipse, therefore at least one star is affecting my life.
So… Jupiter pulls the barycenter outside Sol… but this has no effect on our lives… interesting. How’s this possible that we’re insulated from any influence?
You won’t be saying that when Earth drifts into the path of a gamma ray burst.
Space weather. Mhmm.
How could they? They’re not real and the earth is flat
Exactly. Also, there are 3 moons. Most people think there’s only moon because only 1 at a time is visible.
And don’t forget that time is cubed!!
Men will mock astrology then wear dirty panties week to week so their favorite sports team will win.
Magic thinking is in all of us. It makes more sense to view the sky and seasons as affecting your personality than half the luck, karma, prayer bullshit half the people mocking this stuff do
Personally I think there is reason in astrology. Animals literally have babies at a specific time of year, this habit predates fucking mammals themselves.
So babies born in winter might have a different temperament than those born in summer it makes sense to me evolutionarily. More than any other magic think I can think of.
edit: panty wearing magic thinking sports boys triggered
You’re logic be like: I’m an irrational guy => everyone is irrational => my kind of irrational is better than their kind of irrational because reasons.
or you know the more normal, awareness of magical thinking and still able to enjoy really normal things without being a dick lol
I’m not a dick.
I also describe people who disagree with me as panty wearing magic thinking sports boys.
on a post mocking astrology typically a woman/queer hobby?
I’m with you. In ye olden times, hitting different development milestones during points of the year with different resource availabilities probably had an effect on personalities, and once a pattern is observed people like to make up a story to explain it. If you aren’t letting it rule your life it’s a bit of harmless fun. Like a lucky number or color. People are too protective of their own irrationalities while denouncing other’s.
If they fall on earth, they do.
Also the sun probably has the most influence on us than any other thing in our lives.
Forgot about that.
a capricorn made this smh
I know what it means but… Uh… It’s technically quite wrong.
If a star does a Gamma Ray burst right in Earth’s path we’ll all be pretty strongly effected.
That’s not even going over that Earth is a planet and the Sun is a star, both which are effecting us on a daily basis.
And the sun is gravitationally effected by other stars which in turn effects Earth which in turn effects us…
If that happens, the debate would be moot because we’d all be vaporized, or we’d be sent back to the stone ages, depending on how far away the star is.
The dose makes the poison.
We’re being hit by gamma ray bursts from far far away all the time.
We’re all using gold from a supernova right now to look at this
Crazy to me that people make it their life’s mission to shit on others for the most random things
Narcissistic personality disorder’s a “fun” area of psychology to explore. The way they put down others to keep themselves comparatively above others in their fragile egoic minds, like entering social-domination mode for their perceived survival is a constant compunction for them, unable to distinguish from their inner world that other people really exist beyond just a means to their own petty ends, and will never honestly introspect on it.
My favorite thing is that astrologers are working with a ‘zodiac’ of stars which is so old, the stars have changed position in the sky and their zodiacal charts aren’t even accurate if you just up.
I mean… there is sidereal astrology, which does account for the precession of the equinoxes. And tropical astrology has explanations and justifications to be how it is. It’s not just “oh dumb astrologers don’t even know the stars changed!”. Like, their whole thing is looking at stars and stuff. They sure know it.
If you are actually interested or curious, here is a thread with explanations (it’s unfortunately on Reddit): https://www.reddit.com/r/astrology/comments/wr1iok/tropical_astrology_explanation/?sort=top

They just don’t care 🌚
Also, with how popular astrology now, I’d wager that more than half astrologists don’t know it and only care about some cargo cult attributes
Wait, does anybody knows what happens for ophiuchus people? :/
May as well just think of them on the cusp of Scorpio and Sagittarius. They have the galactic core in their sign. ;D
