Since Everyone Else is Doing It

You are 60% Capricorn


Although part of being a Capricorn is not believing in all this stuff... go figure!

47% Capricorn here. Most of these tests are pretty accurate, actually!

I got 47% exactly as well. Not much Capricorn in this gal.

It's not so much the tests I don't believe in as the Astrology. I find it hard to believe that everyone born in a certain time frame will have the same personality traits. That's the inner skeptic in me, it fights with the inner optimistic me.

Interesting you mentioned that. I once wrote a paper for college hypothesizing that astrology makes sense precisely from times of the year standpoint. In brief, it argued that millenia ago, it really mattered when a baby was born; what elements it would encounter in early weeks of its life defined some of its health and character traits later on. Through evolutionary mechanisms, these external influences have somehow got programmed into the genome. Again, as a hypothesis, of course.

Astrology is fun and all but I'm skeptical. Does astrology still work now that they kicked Pluto out of the planetary relm? Wouldn't that throw the whole solar system and astrology off kilter?

Well, in astrology, both the Moon and the Sun are considered planets, so I don't think they care too much about Pluto. Part of my paper actually discussed the influence of celestial bodies on us earthlings (moontides, sun activity cycles, etc.), but I really think it's more about the seasons than anything. That's why I believe in zodiac signs but do not believe in astrological forecasts.

I can see how the seasons may have an effect... perhaps I'll put a little more faith in zodiac signs. Still not sure what to think of psychics though.
