People are like, "OMG I LOVE ASTROLOGY" then I ask for their birth details and such, and I go very deep in their chart, and they always get very creeped out and disturbed... Why is that IP: Logged |

Well theyre uncomfortable because most people are molded to believe not to believe in that "rubbish". So theyre surprised when you can gain a lot of depth from their charts from little info. You need to find a boundary line on how you delve in. Do you tell them before reading their charts there can be personal stuff seen in their charts? I would ask before reading out their charts to see what theyre comfortable with discussing.IP: Logged |

Are they even into astrology in the first place, and did they ask you to read their chart? When I ask if they're into astrology, I mean TRUE astrology, beyond reading their horoscope in the newspaper. If they aren't and you're just going up to them rattling off details, that will freak some people out, because a lot of people either don't believe in astrology, or think it's evil. Another possibility is, maybe it's a matter of wording. Sometimes it's all in how you say stuff, and if they asked for the reading but you're giving them scary-sounding interpretations, obviously you're going to get that type of reaction. IP: Logged |

I have found that when I am "touching a nerve" that the person tends to back off. Too much information can be a scary thing especially when one doesn't really understand astrology.So the best way I have found to overcome this "creepiness" is to always add something that is good about their chart so they don't feel they are all "bad." And especially ending the reading with words of encouragement and how their good aspects will help them in learning what is needing work in this lifetime. Hope this helps. Really don't we all want to hear something "good" too? This will balance the "creepy" with the "good" and people enjoy the interpretation more. IP: Logged |

Yep. That, or they go icy, or they get hostile and start lashing out.

For me, I don't really talk to anyone about it unless I hear them talking about it first or I've known them a long time. I've learned to be careful who I ask because religious people don't believe in divination arts and think they are of the devil. Some people think you're just weird. Its mostly women with a few men here and there that actually take interest. When I was working, there were quite a few women that would ask me about the synastry they had with guys they were dating or liked; but I knew most the women really well so I had no problems letting them know I like astro. ------------------ Gemini Sun Libra Moon Gemini Mercury Cancer Venus Virgo Mars Virgo Asc And yes, I'm a guy!

Yes they feel very uncomfortable to show their chart to someone.Because they think that there is something peculiar in their chart so they hesitate to expose it.__________ http://www.astroproblemsolution.com/
