why do women relate EVERYTHING to astrology?

[blackmouth]

problems come up in life, it's only natural.

talk to ANY woman, and the 1st thing out of her mouth is... "what's your sign?"



why do you ladies believe this shit?

 

[femmenoire]

I don't "believe" in it.

But I do notice some of the characteristics that seem to be similar for those born during certain times of the year.

I don't "belive" in voodun. But I am fully aware of its existence.

 

[bigirl]

a general horoscope out of the paper based on sun sign alone counts for very little.
however when you make your chart based on your time and place of birth and the exact planetary alignment in relation to you at that moment, it counts for alot more. think about it, magnetic energies count for most of everything we know. if the moon can push and pull the tides, the magnetic force of the planets has to have some kind of serious impact.

all i know is my daily horoscope done by my chart as well as my personality profile is frighteningly spot on.

 

[Jam_Jam]

You are really generalizing on this one. Some women may take it seriously, but for many it is just entertainment. The women I know don't follow "horror" scopes. As a matter of fact, I thought asking someone their sign went out in the eighties.

Nawl, I ask. But I generally ask if I guess their sign after certain things I've heard. Generally, I am right.

 

[Deezz]

That sign shit is for the weak minded. You are your own person. Not what someone has created to make money off of.
Believe in yourself and have faith...that's all you need.

the power of persuasion = a motherfucker.

reading & believing that shit actually influences people is "strange."

instead of reading horoscopes and mentally tying up that very VAGUE shit into what's happening in your life, how about trying to understand the sexual-emotional connection in women and why y'all sometimes do some very, very irrational shit.

 

[SinaminDelite]

I ask because people do carry some characteristics of their sign. It's not a guideline to go by, because everyone is different and has different experiences that make them who they are. But if you tell me your sign I could tell you what your temperament is like and how you view certain things, and I bet you I'd be pretty close. That newspaper horoscope is trash, because its generalized for the millions of people under one sign, so that shit is hardly accurate.

 

[femmenoire]

Ya'll just don't know...

I know girl. These dudes with their multiple personalities is a trip.

 

[AristotlesOwn]

It has been my experience that women of Caribbean descent are the ones who ask that question most frequently.

isn't everyone on here an internet psychiatrist?

 

[femmenoire]

Well often women of Caribbean descent have been raised to appreciate what Americans may refer to as "mysticism". So I can see that.

As I've said before in another post, if I could call on Damballah...I WOULD.

we see every star in the sky and how they move on a daily basis. so small town that we also see how events happen in regards to the moon and the stars. you just can't help but notice. ladyscorp and twisty i know you can back me up on this.

You are dealing with women who have been abused and exploited, and you like it, you put up with it and trying to reason with your reasoning. A sociopath adjusts to his environment as a means for survival. In their mind things seem alphabetical, mathematical, calculated....

On SOL, realize that you will need to be fluid with your answers and explain your delusion;

Logic, the principles and criteria of validity of inference and demonstration, is a feminine trait....

Rationalization, having reason or understanding, is a masculine trait...

Uhhh...okay........ wha?

Did you just say women were logical, and men rationalize stuff?

 

[Iron]

I like astrology. Do some research and compare your findings with the people around you, and obviously your self. You'll be suprised. Astrology is a very old practice and it's amazing how much it has stayed the same throughout time. Most of the stories and research comes from egyptian work. I lived in a house full of capricorns and Aries. I find myself to be naturaly attracted to Geminis, ( i've only dated Geminis) Aries, Pisces and Aquarius.

Also most people don't know that they have two signs especially if you were born on a cusp.

your first natural sign dictated by the day of the month and a rising sign which is dictated by your location and exact time of birth. So actually you have to read two horoscopes.

Just to let you all know astrolgy is not fortune telling it doesn't dictate every aspect of your life that's impossible. It's like someone is giving you a heads up on life. A warning telling you to be aware. It also helps you get a better understanding of human interaction why some people may work together well and why others don't.

isn't the opposite true?

aren't men the logical types while women tend to rationalize their behavior with the intention to blame others-if it doesn't work out their way?

You're right in terms of astrology being similar to some derivatives from Egypt, like numerology. And actually a BGOL male member hipped me up to some fascinating things about numerology.

Do you know how/why magnetic energies have this impact?

Re: the topic
I've noticed that astrology definitely appears to be more attractive to women, but women practice religion more than men generally, as well. I think the draw/reasons are probably the same. I find general horoscopes to be overly vague and, so, silly, no more credible than fortune cookies, though I'd be curious to learn of any validity to a more specified practice (as opposed to daily horoscopes that say everybody born in a two week period will meet someone special this week).

 

[SEXY_SCORPIO]

I don't ask men normally ask me

 

[sakinnuso]

I'm a guy, and fuck it. I don't follow it but I cannot deny that there's some validity to it. I'd love to hear a logical explanation for the following:

All of my best friends tend to have the same signs. I'm a libra, and i found out recently that all of my good friends are either Taurus or Aries. Without fail.

There are women that I'm actually repulsed by. Not physically. They're fine. I'm talking about personality traits. We're cool, but I just couldn't stand being around some of these women for more than 10 minutes. Come to find out, they're Scorpios. Apparently, Libra and Scorpio don't vibe.

Lastly, and this is the kicker: I've got a couple female friends going through shit with their mates. They'll tell me their problems because I'm the ear. The issues are similar: Guy is more sensual, less 'hardcore' sexually than what they're used too. It's off-putting. On the other hand, the guys can be complete freaks when things are right. This, apparently is UNCOMMON.

I'm thinking...fuck, this sounds like ME.

Come to find out, ALL of us are libras with similar interests, personality quirks, and we're all born days apart.

I'm not into all the 'ologies', but I'm aware enough to know that if I come across a dread-locked aquarian, she's wifey on the SPOT.

 

[Arctic Sun]

I didn't believe in it, but then I did a compatibility chart and the shit blew my mind.....

I'm a Taurus.

It says that Tauruses are most compitable with Cancers, Virgos, Capricorns

What signs have all my girlfriends been?
Cancers, Virgos, and Capricorns......

So I'm kinda flimsy with it nowadays.......

 

[femmenoire]

so that means I'd get along with Arctic Sun and sakkinuso.

I can't forget Aristotle's Own and Esoteric 1.

I seem to drawn to Taurean men.

girl why you gotta remind me of what am missing. I tried to explain to a friend the differences in a Caribbean sky cuz I had said something about needing to see full moon against my night sky. and I could not truly describe with words...There really are no words

.... you cut me deep man real deep. Damn repulsed

 

[sakinnuso]

Lady Scorpio - Or it could've been that I just really REALLY couldn't stand this materialistic chick. It's all love.

Femmenoire - Yes, you would be drawn. I could tell by the posts that I wouldn't need a star chart to tell me that.

This is cool. I know that aries and libra are opposite signs meaning that they have a complementing relationship. What you may lack as a libra you can learn from an aries and vice versa.

Do you an your aries friends argue alot? I love my libra friend to death but i like to just pick with her just for the sake of an argument It never get's too serious. She did give me the silent treatment for a whole week though. when we argue it's always over something petty.

As far as me being friends with people that have the same sign as me. All of the aries i've known have been imediate family. Of course we butted heads that's what aries do. Me and my moms would go at it hard. Two know it all's and we'er both hard headed as hell. My cousins last girl was an aries and when ever i'd visit and she was there we've gotten along just fine.

 

[DaleMabry]

I play a mental game where I memorize everyone's horoscope sign.

It's fun to exercise my mind that way.

It helps me remember rough time frames for birthdays.

And sometimes I can get an angle on their psychology.

But mostly its just a fun mind game I play by myself.

I fuck people's heads up when I remember though. Theyre all flattered and stuff.

 

[SEXY_SCORPIO]

I dont think Scorpios are compatible with anyone

 

[DaleMabry]

I dont think Scorpios are compatible with anyone

What?? EVERY sign is feelin Scorps!

Scorps have more sexual mystique than any other sign--what's the reaction 8/10 times when you tell a man your horoscope sign?

"A Scoooooooooorpiooooo...."

Right?

I've dated them however, and known dozens (dozens!) both male and female, so for me it's beyond the mystique (I'm taking an extended hiatus from that sign LOL)--there's an ill Cancer / Scorp compatibility that can be INTENSE.

That's not always a good thing, but it's never boring, that is fo DAMN sho.

 

[Chicutie]

I know a lot of women who do this. . But for as many women I know that does this. I know just as many men who do. . . I remember this one guy assumed I was freak because I was Libra. I guess he had dated a lot of girl who were Libras that so happened to be freaks also. True I am a freak. . but I don't attribute it to being a Libra lol.

I'm really not into astrology. . sometimes it's true and sometimes it isn't.. .

 

[DaleMabry]

I have heard Libras are great in bed! LOL

But I somehow almost always end up "buddies" with female Libras

Not that I don't appreciate my Libra homegirls greatly, I get along with them great.

But I'd trade them all for a torrid weekend with Caramel (Libra)
