That's the way it is with me! it's like my private thing. My SO knows about it because I force it on him all the time, but no one else knows just how into it I am! lol. I always wonder why more people aren't into it. It's so interesting.

You could go to a local meetup. I go to the NYC one on occasion and I've had friendly exchanges with very talented people. It's funny how someone will always point out something in your chart you never noticed or forgot about.

I've looked into those, but haven't found any with regular meet ups=/ I will keep looking though!
You're right there's a definite stigma about it. People act like you're some kind of witch doctor or something haha! I've asked friends their birth time before and when I told them why they would say "I don't believe in astrology" and quickly change the subject. Makes me feel like a freak.

When I talk about it they just act like I'm either a) a weirdo or b) adorably quirky. I DO NOT WANT TO BE QUIRKY I WANT TO TALK TO PEOPLE WHO SPEAK MY LANGUAGE!!!

Rant over. Yeah I just wish I could hang out with you guys in real life and talk astrology=)

Yes, maybe one day we will=)

Exactly it is sooo interesting! But people start jugdging you as soon as they know about it! Atleast it has happened with me before. I love science and am pursuing engineeering in computer science and yet I still believe in astrology and all the spiritual stuff. My friends have made fun of me before. It's sad what they are missing out.
