Some survey. Not one thing about it being fake. Which it is.



"What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." – Christopher Hitchens



Edit: Hey Sparrow, how exactly does one "study" astrology? I wonder about this often and many people claim they do. But no one will say how. Where do you get your data? Without bias, how can you conduct accurate tests?

1. Pisces



2. Yes I believe in astrology.



3. c - Of course I believe in the information gleaned from natal charts, and while most horoscopes are made up, they are often still based on something and some are more poignant than others. They're too simple, but can be helpful to certain individuals at certain times in their lives.



4. I'm not entirely sure yet. I mainly study tropical astrology and it seems to be accurate so far, though so does Vedic at times. They share the same aspects and house placements though as far as I can tell, so both would still contain their insights. I think the Ophiuchus thing is a bit useless, personally, but I still can't be sure about that either.



5. No it does not. Choose first, reflect later - we learn best this way. I think any other way of living would almost defeat the purpose of being alive at times. I also think that sometimes we love people we are incompatible with, or certain people arise that we can learn something from for a reason. We should always be open.



6. I don't really like the whole percentage thing as it doesn't entirely make sense to me when discussing something like this. Astrology is interpreted in many different ways for one, and it discusses our whole inner being, something which I think takes time and experience to really understand on an intuitive level. I don't feel that astrology should be seen as something with a start and finish, it is not linear by nature. If I am going to apply percentages to astrology I would say that astrology, at its core, is always 100% accurate. It claims what it claims and leaves the rest to you.



**Edit: chain... I think a better quote for you would be, "What can be asserted without proof can be beaten like a dead horse". You can quote me on that one.

1) What is your Zodiac Sign? - Sun in Capricorn



2) Do you believe in Astrology? - Not completely, but I have an interest in it and I am leaning towards it being legitimate.



3) Which part of Astrology do you believe in?

a. Horoscopes

b. Birth / Natal Charts

c. Both - I don't believe in newspaper horoscopes, but do believe in transits affecting us. I believe in Natal Charts.



4) Which Astrology method do you think is most Accurate?

a. Tropical Astrology

b. Vedic Astrology

c. 13th Constellation (Ophiuchus)

d. All of the Above - Currently, I only believe in Tropical astrology. I haven't studied Vedic much, so I'm neutral on it. I don't believe in the 13th zodiac.



5) Does Astrology effect who you choose to Date? - No, astrology can help you understand a person, but it doesn't make someone a good or bad person. I don't judge people by their charts.



6) How true has Astrology been about you? - percentage wise. - Theres no way to come up with a percentage, because the number wouldn't be based on anything. It's definitely been mostly true for me.

1) What is your Zodiac Sign? Scorpio



2) Do you believe in Astrology? Yes



3) Which part of Astrology do you believe in? Both, BUT... I think most people have a very superficial interest in Astrology, and I can't say I completely believe other in the way which is common. I believe in birthcharts, but think they're often overly simplified and misinterpreted. And I believe in "horoscopes" (in the sense of using info to predict future events), but I don't believe in Sun sign/magazine/astrology.com kinds of horoscopes AT ALL. So mostly, I believe in the possibility of them being accurate, but I don't believe in the people (myself included much of the time) who compile/draw conclusions from that info.



4) Which Astrology method do you think is most Accurate? Tropical Astrology



5) Does Astrology effect who you choose to Date? No



6) How true has Astrology been about you? - percentage wise. Depends on the reading/type. I'd say, of those I had the most confidence in, about 85%.
