I have no idea whats going on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_astrologyLol that article made me laugh; I'll ask my dad if he knows any astronomers who actually like astrology. Also hey new bestie, hope I live up to your other Aqua-people friends bestie, you're already nailing it lol yeah i'd be curious to know if he does! Thanks bestie, back atcha I asked him! It's a definite 'no' lol. Wellllll my dad gets a lot of people contacting him with their crazy theories about how physicists are all wrong about everything (the last one sent an entire book they'd written, full of nonsensical diagrams & several chapters explaining what an id1ot Einstein 'really' was), and they're always wanting him to publicly/financially support their totally unscientific theories. They're basically conspiracy theorists. Anyway, it doesn't always involve astrology but there's a lot of that in there, and although it can be very amusing it's also exasperating to have to field entirely unscientific questions from people who refuse to believe anything supported by 'mainstream' (i.e. legitimate) science. But that said, he does find it amusing enough, so he'll happily joke around with it.

I'm uninterested in negating science. Just interested in like... pushing it lol.

Oh totally! Yeah the problem isn’t with most people who like astrology or anything, just the sort of obsessive fringe lol. Just like with anything really.
Also, absolutely obsessed with how sinister that last sentence sounds. Push science to its limits ... and beyond 😈

I don't know if I'm being really stupid but wouldn't the stars be different depending what part of the earth you are looking from?

I'm a sagithingy and I don't even know how to find out the other stuff. Maybe you can guess and then tell me how to find out. It requires your time of birth and location of birth. easiest way is to fill that stuff in on an app like costar, or website like astro.cafeastrology.com/natal.phpI just did that and there was a lot of sign stuff I didn't understand and then a perfect description of the exact opposite of my personality.

yes they are, that's why in your natal chart you need your birthplace // coordinates so that it's "more accurate" I don't know if I'm being really stupid but wouldn't the stars be different depending what part of the earth you are looking from?
