Or do you just find it not worth your time and and a waste of other peoples time to be believing/talking this kind of stuff?

Why is astrology making me judge people? Ok.. so I read up on astrology like a few months back and now that's all I think about when I meet people. My first impressions of people are now being linked with astrology.

I don't know what to do!
What is the biggest misconception you had regarding astrology before you really got into it? I remember when I was 11 or 12, before I really knew much about the true workings of astrology, I was somewhat under the impression that water signs were more... thoughtful than other signs.

What impressions did you have about astrology that you came to understand to be incorrect? Signs, if you like?

Is the use of essential dignities and rulership falling out of favor with modern astrology? It seems that the old definitions of rulership as one of the 5 essential dignities is no longer popular among astrologers.

Have you noticed this and has it made much of an impact on how you "see" a sign?
Can you believe in astrology but think horoscopes are stupid? because there is much more to astrology than the sun sign.

Astrology and myths: why do so many read and believe in it? Is it due to a fallacy of belief that humans move in predictable manners like the planets in space?

I would prefer anti-astrology people to answer this in a greater number than those pro-astrology since I am seeking a reasonable counterargument as this stuff is new to me.

How does astrology (horoscope) work? No answers on whether or not it works, how does it supposably "predict" things? According to some "specialists" it is a very objective "science".

What is the difference between astrology and religion? An incredible amount of people believe in astrology, despite the fact that it has proven to be superstition and a pseudoscience. Similarly, there is no evidence to support any of the conjured up gods, but much of the world believes in some sort of supernatural being.
