Your Sign vs God

i think most people get into astrology and other divination initially because they're trying to understand themselves and others, it's like a desperation move lol. i try not to take it so seriously and look at it more as understanding human nature and psychology, but at the same time, we know this shit is accurate af.
And this is where I always had the hardest time understanding why it was considered a form of evil in the ancient scriptures.
We appear to have a tool that seems to show itself as highly accurate. If God made the stars, did He give us this tool? Or has the first heaven been armed by Satan for the sole purpose of setting our expectations to magnetic pulls in the planets as an intricate weapon of mass distraction?
right. and how many references to using astrology/astronomy are there in the bible? the 3 wise men and king solomon come to mind. is this knowledge a gift or delusion, i wonder.
Astrology and religion are two sides of the same coin.
I’ve come to the conclusion at least for now (because I’m a Gemini 😋) that religion and astrology are human created sources of comfort and control to assert that something in this chaotic random universe has order and meaning.
i agree with this (sometimes lol) i too have a problem with all organized religion. like how much of these texts were revised and revised over time? how much has been used in the wrong ways for nations to gain power and control?
You're right as a whole. See, the Catholics have a monopoly on knowledge of faith, although they don't share all of it. And they also have the most organized good works and ministries. However, they do not appear to have the power of the Spirit which is frequently made manifest in Pentecostal sects. They are two different tribes worshipping God in truth. While forces of the Spirit are not restricted by denominations, it appears the differences are useful for fellowship and may be part of a grand scheme to help people go to one another. This is probably more useful than denominations arguing about who is right or not.click to expand
thanks for sharing this. i don't lean towards any specific branch of christianity, i'd need to do more research first. but when i've read the bible, which isn't often enough, i've felt the much more self-understanding and sense of calm than when reading my chart or horoscope. so i'm very glad you brought this topic on board.

Never ending addictions that are always one little voice from telling you to pour all your strengths and efforts down the drain.
Posted by Haruukahow can some people be blunt to others and be sensitive at the same time?
I will tell you this/ as sag, when I have enough of someone/something
I just stop it, and change
I stay with people, and give them many chances, but sometimes I just leave
And it’s always because they did something...really bad.
Or say something that hurt my feelings really bad.
Sometimes people think that we Sagittarius people does not have feelings because we don’t talk about it, but hey...we’re sensitive

I (27F) Scorpio was involved with a Cancer man (30M) when I was 22-24. We were on and off because he didn’t want to commit and messed around with other girls. The bond was still strong; we called each other soul mates and I still feel that way. We both have a Cancer moon. Anyway, I had been dating a new guy (Libra) for the last 3 years. 2 years in, Cancer and I reconnected and decided to be friends. I didn’t have any sexual feelings towards him anymore and I still don’t. He would tell me about any girl trouble and I would tell him about my Libra. Libra and I had a rocky relationship and Cancer hated him. He told me to break up with him and I would, but eventually we would get back together. This happened 2 times. Cancer said Libra was abusive and that I could find better. A few months ago Cancer sent me a necklace in the mail based on astrology and told me to wear it every day to bring good energy/luck. After I promised to not get with Libra ever again, I called him and told him that I was back with Libra and he promptly hung up and me and blocked me. It’s been almost 4 months and I’m still blocked. What should I do? I’m moving back to the city he also lives and I miss him so much. Maybe I was a complete idiot, but I’m down to be dragged.
See if your Cancerian happens to have:
• Mercury in Leo, Scorpio, Taurus, or Aquarius
• Mars in Leo or Scorpio
• Jupiter in Taurus
All of these are associated with amplified levels of stubbornness in a Natal Chart. (There are others too, but they are not applicable or you've already excluded them by mentioning his Sun and Moon signs).
• Mercury is stubbornness in communication
• Mars is stubbornness through anger
• Jupiter is stubbornness via reduced mercifulness
His chart / my chart:
Rising Cancer / Virgo
Sun Cancer / Scorpio
Moon Cancer / Cancer
Mercury Gemini / Sagittarius
Venus Taurus / Capricorn
Mars Aries / Cancer
Jupiter Cancer / Libra
Saturn Capricorn / Aquariusclick to expand
Mercury ♊ wants to communicate.
Venus ♉ is rational practical warm and craves stability.
Mars ♈ can be volatile but not typically stubborn.
Saturn ♑ is steadfast and reliable generally speaking.
The rest of his placements seem to be in Cancer which is known to be one of the most forgiving if not the most forgiving sign humanly possible.
I know... I don't know... maybe a dozen Cancerian and I've seen some fucked up shit happen to them, but they just take their punches and keep on keepin' on.
The ONLY time that I have seen a Cancer drop somebody entirely is if they happened to have found somebody willing to treat them in the ways in which they wish to be treated accidentally. When it catches them off-guard it's almost like a fairy tale because they didn't expect it get that level of attention from somebody unprovoked while they were busy trying to get that attention from someone else without success.
It may be entirely possible he was waiting for you as long as he could, somebody crept in and got him while he was emotionally open, you took the Lib back that last time and he could have been like "Eff it. I'm going with this other person"
I'm not saying that's what happened, but I'm not saying it isn't. I'm just throwing what I see into the mix based off of The limited information I have for his chart as well as my experience with other Cancerian.
Besides... You're a Scorpio with a Cancer Moon and a Virgo rising. If you wanted to get in contact with a person you definitely have the capability too, and you would make an amazing stalker if somebody pissed you off as well based on your placements; haha

Phillip tries to reach out to Beth. Rick and Beth discuss Phillip and Mindy's sham wedding. Reva hopes Josh doesnt find out why she really did the things she did. Will Phillip really go through with marrying Mindy?

I love this thread cause I'm learning so much about international films and old films,
I love international, I used to always watch French films, now I'm into Korean, but I like knowing what's good to watch like I said I don't like wasting time on subpar films
anyways I'm surprised my dxp therapist @enfant_terrible isn't on here
he's a film guru
i miss enfant too, we had so many good film convos. carbonmonoxide has great taste as well. wish they were still around!

It's just a morphing of "Becky" which has been around since late 80s/early 90s;
Becky
[ bek-ee ]
WHAT DOES BECKY MEAN?
Becky is a stereotype for a white woman, especially one who is unaware or takes advantage of her social privilege. Becky is also used more generally to mock a young white woman as "basic."
