TheManticore Knowflake Posts: 315 From: Registered: Aug 2012	posted August 10, 2012 11:16 AM quote: Originally posted by Junethird: @themanticore, sand Apply to be teachers of chinese zodiac in brown owl please Honestly, I would prefer to just have a section for it, as we will probably cram up the Brown Owl School if we start making threads in it. Also, I think that I am too new to this site to be considered for a teaching position . Thanks for the vote of confidence though! . ------------------ Leo Sun, Scorpio Moon, Aquarius ASC, Year of the Earth Snake "The Manticore is a mythological creature that is half-lion and half-scorpion."

RunAroundScreaming Knowflake Posts: 4885 From: Registered: Oct 2010	posted August 10, 2012 11:29 AM wtf is a brown own school. we need a section for chinese astrology. Nobody is going to see the forum Brown Owl School and think "Oh, cool, I might find some interesting chinese astrology threads here! Let me check it out." We who are talking about it now might remember that we can talk about chinese astro there, but anyone who does not read this will never know, and so we will never get a lot of members discussing chinese astro. I think we need a forum specifically for Chinese astro. IP: Logged

Having a more in depth and step by step instructions on how to find certain elements in your Chinese chart and basic descriptions of your sign and element is good. Brown owl is not a forum to knock down. quote: Originally posted by RunAroundScreaming: wtf is a brown own school. we need a section for chinese astrology.

I just want to make the point that I am in no way trying to discredit or be unappreciative of the efforts of the people maintaining this site in presenting this idea. I just thought there might be a void we could fill and make it better. ------------------ Leo Sun, Scorpio Moon, Aquarius ASC, Year of the Earth Snake "The Manticore is a mythological creature that is half-lion and half-scorpion."

katatonic Knowflake Posts: 8581 From: Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 10, 2012 03:00 PM i agree, a full section for chinese astrology would be cool. there is a great deal more to it than the yearly/hourly signs; am looking online for the book i once had which helped you cast the full 'scope, though as i recall it was very fatalistic compared to the western POV..

Hera Moderator Posts: 3992 From: the OR Registered: Sep 2010	posted August 10, 2012 03:33 PM Lol, well I agree it deserves more of our attention but dunno if creating a specific forum for this is the right thing to do. Then we're gonna have to create one for Vedic, Magi, cosmobiology and whatnot. On the other hand, it might be good to compartmentalize the Astro forum, like Horary astro, Relationship astro, Natal astro, Predictive astro, Karmic astro etc. Things would be better organized and easier to find. Idk.. it's Randall's call. But would like to mention I am joining the Chinese astro enthusiasts' group lol. I think i am finally figuring it out lol. IP: Logged
ShyVirgo1979 Knowflake Posts: 1107 From: Registered: May 2011	posted August 10, 2012 04:11 PM Count me in. I know very little abt chinese astrology. I know there is a thread abt it in brown owl school but I wouldn't have known it had I not been there. Yes its a good thread but I had trouble following it bc its so much info. In my own personal opinion chinese astrology is just too vast to b limited to one lone thread. I'm fine with whatever randall wants to do, if he says yay or ney. But I'm joining the petition list. And I still like the brown owl school IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 20782 From: Saturn next to Charmainec Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 10, 2012 04:50 PM I'm not convinced the subject will get much activity at all. Posting interest on this string is a lot like clicking "Like" on a Facebook page, but it doesn't denote active interest in said page. Prove me wrong by posting in Brown Owl, and we will see. WTF is Brown Owl School? Read the description and see. Note: There are several strings about Chinese Astrology there, not one lone string. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

TheManticore Knowflake Posts: 315 From: Registered: Aug 2012	posted August 10, 2012 05:16 PM Thank you for the response . I do not have a Facebook page (I know right ) so I don't know what you mean by a "Like". My main purpose of this thread was to bring the subject to your attention and to see what your decision would be. I will gladly ATTEMPT to prove you wrong . Thank you for considering my request. ------------------ Leo Sun, Scorpio Moon, Aquarius ASC, Year of the Earth Snake "The Manticore is a mythological creature that is half-lion and half-scorpion."

Randall Webmaster Posts: 20782 From: Saturn next to Charmainec Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 10, 2012 05:22 PM Anyone can start a Facebook page on a topic or for a business, advertise on Facebook, and build thousands of Likes rather quickly. But the people who "Like" the page won't re-visit or frequent the associated site or buy the product/service. You can literally buy Likes...but it doesn't translate into active interest. Unless it's a Linda Goodman subinterest exception, a separate Forum is only warranted by a large interest in the subject matter. We shall see... ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

TheManticore Knowflake Posts: 315 From: Registered: Aug 2012	posted August 10, 2012 05:37 PM Oh ok, thank you for the explanation. I completely understand, you can't go around adding new forums because a few people say they "like" it . We must prove ourselves, huzzah! lol ------------------ Leo Sun, Scorpio Moon, Aquarius ASC, Year of the Earth Snake "The Manticore is a mythological creature that is half-lion and half-scorpion."

RunAroundScreaming Knowflake Posts: 4885 From: Registered: Oct 2010	posted August 10, 2012 05:40 PM there can be more active interest if people have a place to read about chinese astrology, realize how true it is, and thus generate questions when their curiousity has been piqued IP: Logged
RunAroundScreaming Knowflake Posts: 4885 From: Registered: Oct 2010	posted August 10, 2012 05:43 PM no one has requested a section for magi astrology, runes, or the i ching, or whatever else there is because there arent any people who know enough about that and have enough of an interest in it to want to share info on it.

RunAroundScreaming Knowflake Posts: 4885 From: Registered: Oct 2010	posted August 10, 2012 05:54 PM We cant even start a new topic on that forum. It's disabled. I dont understand how we can discuss chinese astrology there IP: Logged

RunAroundScreaming Knowflake Posts: 4885 From: Registered: Oct 2010	posted August 10, 2012 06:09 PM I know. But what happened to capitalism and letting things run without rules and interference. I wanted to start a new thread about a really cool chinese astro site and I couldnt. Where am I supposed to add that. IP: Logged
