  • @kagesstarshroom I'm really into astrology. I pull people's natal charts all the time and read books constantly. I know people think I'm an idiot but I don't care. Most people don't understand astrology besides a dumb horoscope they see online.

  • @celticknotfire I don't dislike The Office, I just never really got into it. I found Steve Carrell so obnoxious in it. I love him as an actor so it was ruining my love for him. 

    @lillywonderland I'll eat allll your mushrooms. Olives too, if they're kalamata olives.

  • @kagesstarshroom @riff323 I do beleive in zodiac too! I love having people interpret my charts and being "omg that's me!!"

    I also beleive in mediums and that "ghosts" exist among us.
  • @suzycupcake - Sorry, another vote for having never seen GOT.

    @riff323 - I'm curious what else is there to astrology beside the horoscope? Apparently I'm a Sagittarius and yet I never find anything resonating about the things I see online about them.
  • @marebear15 your natal chart is a unique snapshot of the planets and which signs they're in at the exact time of your birth. The horoscope you see is your sun sign. You also have moon, Venus, Mars, Mercury, Neptune, etc. not to mention your Ascendant and Descendant. As if THAT wasn't enough, there are 12 houses, each governing a different area of how you respond to life (for example, your feelings on your house, your career, your friends, etc.). Your planets can be found inside your houses, giving them more "weight" on your life. That's it in a nutshell, but I'm hoping that makes you see what I'm talking about!
  • @riff323 - Hmm, that's interesting. So what "house" does the sun sign fall under?
  • @marebear15 it's different for everyone, based on the time and place you were born.
