Astrology

[Prince Glittersnatch III]

Astronomers with the Minnesota Planetarium Society have dropped a bomb on the zodiac, noting that thanks to the millennia-long effect of the moon's gravitational pull on the Earth, there's about a one-month bump in the alignment of the stars. The result?

"When [astrologers] say that the sun is in Pisces, it's really not in Pisces," Parke Kunkle, a board member of the Minnesota Planetarium Society, told the Star Tribune.

And if the sun isn't in Pisces, YOU'RE not in Pisces. Surprise! You're an Aquarius!

Much of astrology -- called an ancient and complex system that uses math and science to predict the future -- relies upon careful observation of the heavens. And your astrological sign is based on the date of your birth, something that was tied very tightly to the position of the heavens back in Babylonian times.

Seeing stars yet? It all comes down to the 26,000-year procession of the planets through space, he said, noting that a variety of gravitational forces have changed the position of the planets in the sky over time.

Bottom line, the astrological forecasts we've all been turning to may -- gasp! -- not be accurate at all, or at least they may be intended for other readers.

So basically anyone who claims that astrology works for them is full of shit /obvious

I just thought it was funny. Even if people claim that astrology "works" it couldnt have been working well for them because its all been way off.

Yeah, but uh... I thought it was fairly well known that astrological signs didn't sync up with the actual paths of celestial bodies.

Who cares? Not me, that's for sure. Doesn't make me any less of a Gemini. Astronomers should all be rounded up like Sicilian Bandits, and made to live in small, gated communities where they won't be able to spread their lies. What they do, in fact is Witchcraft, and Sorcery. Like Devils. So they really do have to go. Especially Mystic Meg.

They already do, why do you think all the worlds telescopes are on top of mountains or out in the middle of deserts?

[The Good Reverend Roger]

They already do, why do you think all the worlds telescopes are on top of mountains or out in the middle of deserts?

Because they hate Tucson, and don't want us to have street lights on the North end.

Because the practitioners of these vulgar and cheap conjuring tricks are generally not encouraged to stray for long anywhere close to good Christian folks.
And the light's better.

Oh man, this is priceless.  Someone should alert Weird Al.  He hates astrology.

[BadBeast]

Astrology rhymes with too many other words for Weird Al to hate it for long. He could get his next 2 songs from Astrology, just as it is! If only he wasn't such a lyrical purist. He might try to not be so soul crushingly wounded every time he was reminded what an arsehole he is when he's been drinking. And maybe not have a drink at all.

OMG!!! Liek, does this affect chinese zodiac thingy too??? I was a tiger and now i dont even know who i am!!

[BadBeast]

Why can't they just leave shit alone?

[Phox]

No, because the Chinese zodiac isn't based on constellations/stars/planets or "astrology" at all, really.

Then I'm still a Fire Horse?


Shit!
