LOL, you obviously haven't met the fraudulent/terrible astrologers then.

Are we talking about good or bad stereotypes, or just how they are commonly perceived? I guess I'm not sure if you are wanting to brainstorm natal aspects and/or provide commentary.

Alright- sounds good!

I agree with you on Aquarian energy- I've seen Sun/Uranus and Moon/Uranus in astrologer's charts before. I would consider a high amount of Neptunian energy to be a vital part as well: Sun/Neptune, Mercury/Neptune, Neptune/Moon, etc.

12th house Sun is a possibility, likewise 11th and 10th for recognition (if we are talking famous astrologers in the public eye)

I believe these are known as some of the astrologer's degrees, cannot remember where I have read this before:

22° – 28° Aquarius.
25° – 29° Leo
11° Virgo/Pisces
18° seems to pop up a lot in astrologer's charts as well

We could also look at the Urania asteroid too.

Stereotypes though? Lol, I could have a field day with that one.

Hmmm.... half the world are closet astrologers. Can there be a stereotype?

... free thinkers, abstract thinkers, I suppose. That gels with the Uranus energy and Aquarius.

Not for astrologers but I thought I'd share this from Dyke Drama by Leslie Lange in "Cast of Characters" (or lesbians you'll likely run into sooner or later):

The Tarot Reader: Wondering how to heal your relationship? Wondering if you two have a future together? She's got the answer: It's in the cards. Pros: If you leave it all up to the cards you don't have to take responsibility for the outcome. Cons: This crap gets old fast. Often heard line: "The Hanged Man, Queen of Pentacles, and Page of Cups in the Three Fates spread means we'll make that tofu dish you like tonight."

Not so much an astrologer stereotype as an astrology one. The stereotype that I grew up with...

Man in a bar wearing a leisure suit and gold chains and displaying too much chest hair walks up to a woman and says "Hey, baby. What's your sign?"

Don't forget the classic response...

"Hey, Babe, what's your sign?"

"It's 'stop'."

I'm guessing people think about them gazing into a crystal ball.

Definitely a common stereotype is where they are superstitious of doing certain things during mercury retrograde or void of course moon. You'll hear those jokes accompanied with rolling eyes like "she wont go out with us this weekend because mercury is retrograde and something about saturn"

~ Weeee hahah! it's time to fire some Mean opinions lol ... ( pfff... well, they are not really mean but... ) whatever.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First Goes:

~ The Astrologer Scorned.

( Please, read carefully if you are a very defensive person. This might not be directed to you. )
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

• This individual is the typical "Turbulent One" that always thinks of herself/himself as a very mature person.

• Kind of always treats Young / Newcomer(s) folks as if they were sewer scum.

• These Beings think that Age and Time give them immediate Divine Power.
Some might even say: I've Been Doing 'This' for a Thousand Years!

* Yet... it's kind of funny.
Because if this being in question has been an astrologer for many many many many many years...

Then it means that His / Her skills can be compared with everyone's else. Because 90% of what they tell is nothing... Mind-blowing.

*So, their Years of practice become nothing more than pure "Marketing". Mark my words.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

- [ ~ But what has been previously mentioned, it's not what makes them win the Title Belt of #Astrologer Scorned. ~] -
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Yup, the worst is yet to come...

• When They are confronted, 90% of the times, They will open a new thread. Yes!, TO CONTINUE THE DRAMA.
And to Vindicate themselves.

• Because in one hand.
Lies "a Powerful Person', very mature, very skilled and never wrong, who has the Divine Right to treat newbies as toilet paper.

• But on the other hand.
Lies a very scorned and receptive individual.
Deep in their conscience they have a very low self-esteem.
This is why they treat others in such Harsh / Rough way.

• Because their superiority doesn't exist. It's a Fantasy.

• Sadly, these people is THAT Turbulent, ( even unskilled ) and Harmless...
That what they actually deserve is a lot of compassion from the rest of mankind.

~ loooool !

Now it comes...

~ The Fear promoter.

The fear promoter is such person that is... technically... scared of everything... lol

It's not actually a bad and toxic person like the one previously described.

Because this subject in question actually feels fear, and probably unconsciously wants to project the fear He / She feels to other individuals.

Behind this behavior, there might be some reeeaaally weird egotism.

Because their logic is like: I've suffered - Now I want you to suffer with my readings

Hahah! but it's actually pretty funny... because each reading is:

• " I see Pain "
• " It means Pain "
• " You're going to be Bullied "
• " Oh... did I mention the Pain You Shall feel? "
• " Oh noes! This aspect means that you are a Sociopath. "
• " Oh my Goodness, You're a Victim ! "
• " This one is a Real Nasty Narcissist. "
• " This guy can't feel emotions. "
• " Holy Cow! This guy will hurt you really badly. Why would you even start a relationship? "
• " Oh Dear, I think I forgot to mention the Pain ! "
• " Excuse me?, You didn't like my Reading? Then you don't want to admit the Mental Dissorder I see in you Natal
• " It looks like you're Doomed "
• " Oh, I see some filthy Sexual Dissorder here. It deserves an Article Muahahaha! "
• " Your Guy is one real cheater, That's for sure. "
• " Huh? You don't like my reading too? Probably you can't admit the power of THE PAIN ! "

Hahahahah!

~ And all readings are the same.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .


~ Well, don't take it too Seriously.

loooool

Ugh.

You're right lol


I hate it when Astrology is associated with,

or mistaken for Fortune Telling and the like.


I think of it more like a cosmic Myers-Briggs.
