Star Signs and Horoscopes..........


Here I go starting another post I wrote one about smoking then remembered I had already done one about smoking a few months back so scrapped that one, well by scrapped it I mean I posted it over at my Wordpress blog instead..............
As I was saying it is Wednesday here in my part of the world and for the second week I have Summer for the day while Kathy is at work, at the moment I have both Summer and Daemon, Kelli & Jess left Daemon here so Summer would have someone to play with and guess what Summer fell asleep within minutes of them leaving, she is now asleep on the floor near me and Daemon is busy watching telly.
So now I will ask you not if you smoke but instead what do you think about horoscopes.

Do you read your horoscope?
When I was younger I was more interested in horoscopes but now days not so much mostly because there are many who pretend to know what they are talking about when in fact they are clueless.
So often horoscopes are too generalised and could be applied to anyone. I do still check out my horoscope from time to time but I don't live by it or take it that serious but I know that there are those who do and I just don't get it. It is interesting but that's about it.

I also remember many years ago like 30 years or more having someone tell me that a Scorpio and an Aquarius could never have a long term relationship and that was a pile of rubbish as I am a Scorpio and Tim is an Aquarius and we are still happy together.

I do think our star sign says a lot about us and who we are but we are all individual and so much more than just our star sign, but as I said it is interesting for sure.

  1. I don't read my horoscope. I do have a book by Linda Goodman which describes each star sign, I mostly believe what she has written..

  2. I don't go in for the star sign readings they have in the papers. I did have a complete horoscope charted way back when I was in my 20s and that was surprisingly accurate and detailed, as skeptical as I was. I learned that the sun, moon, and rising sign have more to do with who you are...but it all depends on which house each one falls and on and on. She was creepily accurate, but I never did anything else with horoscopes.

  3. Anything on my horoscopes is evenly divided between "Fits me to a T" and "Not on my best/worst day" About like fortune cookies.

  4. I'm a Pisces. I thought horoscopes were interesting when I was a teenager, but I never look at them now.

  5. I used to read it more often when I actually read a newspaper. Now with getting my news off the internet I never think of it. They are very general but I think there is some basis of something there. Maybe if you have one done for you specifically by someone reputable, it might be more precise. That'd be kind of fun, I think. I'm a Gemini.

  6. Dear Jo-Anne, I read my horoscope in the newspaper each day because so often it makes me laugh. Like you, I think they are too general.

    I have had my astrological chart done several times--both the Easter and the Western version--and I've found that quite interesting because the interpreters could see links that really did reflect the life I've lived. And each time, this person didn't know me beforehand or know anyone I knew. So I was impressed. Peace.

  7. I'm a Libra and I totally fit the personality. A lot of times when I read stuff about my sign, it is so close to who I am it's eerie!

  8. Thanks for this great post .. I think the signs of the Zodiac can give us great insights into our day to day living as well as the many talents and special qualities we posses.
