This subject sounds like a pick-up line for a cult, sorry about that . I was just wondering how strongly all of you believe in astrology? I'm still often skeptical about it, but then I'll discover astrological aspects in my chart or others that are just so right, that I think it must be true. I guess what makes it hard for me to believe in it completely is the whole metaphysics needed to support it...like, you'd have to believe that there are these different kinds of consciousness in the universe (Aries, Taurus, etc.) and that that energy gets expressed in different, organized ways (Sun, Moon, Mars, etc.) through a person when she's born at a certain time. And even if that is possible, how do we really know if what we understand astrology to be is really the way it is? Maybe there's so much more to it that we just don't know about, like 90% of it is still a mystery to us, so it would be pointless to work ourselves up into a tizzy over this or that synastry aspect, or transit, etc. I'm rambling, but what I wanna say is that I believe in it more than I disbelieve but I have doubts about whether what we know is accurate or close to being complete. And it still boggles my mind how it even works in the first place.So do you fully believe? Have you ever had an experience that made you become a full believer?
