THIS WEEK⭐

I study astrology and have been since the pandemic. It's simply a tool you can use to guide your life. Astrologers study the movement of the planets in our galaxy, the alignments and how that impacts us. People only know sun signs and pop culture has dumbed it down which is what you're referring to but it's a lot deeper and insightful than that when you get a reading from an actual astrologer.

I'm definitely not big into astrology but I did read an article once and it said which other stars signs I'd get on well with. When I went through my friends I realised that most of the ones I get on best with and feel that genuine natural connection with, were the ones they mentioned. So that's interesting.

Every description of a star sign that I’ve ever read, and every prediction, was written in a way that invited the reader to identify with some aspect of it: “Pisces is sensitive and empathetic? Yes, that’s me!” It’s a fun kind of confirmation bias that dates from a time when people thought everything circled the earth, and had no concept of how distant we are from the stars.

Astrology specifically? No. Everything people tend to assume about me being an Aries and Year of the Tiger is usually wrong. The only true thing really is that I get bored with things and people really easily and I lack a filter in social situations. I just equate that to intelligence and neurodivergence. I do believe in Tarot but that's because I grew up using them. It is part of my religion and honestly the readings help people realize things on their own through powers of suggestion. I don't think of them as like "crystal ball" future telling. I think of them as like critical thinking self-help books.

I like the aesthetics of witchy stuff, occult / mysticism / astrology / tarot and all that jazz. That’s as far as I can go with it though, I’m a total skeptic. I need to know how it WORKS, like how exactly is Jupiter affecting my personality? Let’s perform a double-blind study please! I find explanations along the lines of “it just works we don’t need to know why” so boring (where is your curiosity?!), and it makes me start looking for the scam.

Always excited for a new week of reactions! I'm very casually interested in astrology. I do see many traits in people that match up with their signs, etc. But I'm just casual about it. My best friend, however, is so knowledgeable. She memorizes so many birthdays and knows so much. It's her thing. But again, it's not like she sees it as the ultimate truth of human beings.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and The Leftovers are in your radar? 🥹

I don't believe in astrology, but I did think about getting my birthchart done, just because they look really beautiful.

I bought a print of your Kendrick Lamar a few years ago and have it hanging in my study. Just wanted to thank you for your beautiful art ❤️

I like star signs and would like to get mine as a tattoo some day. I'm a Virgo and the descriptions are very spot on for my personality and my friend's who is a Scorpio. I find that aspect very fun but I don't really believe in it, nor do I like reading a daily horoscope. I like to just take the day as it comes, and atm I'm very much in a "one day at a time" kind of place 🥰❤️

I am so excited for Saturday. They all kill it. As for the question, I don't know enough as well but I also don't really want to.

Is it Monday yet!?😁
