I generally dont watch tv,but I will pick up a series and watch a season or a few episodes. Like the Californication: good writing. The L Word: didnt grab. Mad men: marketing misogyny. What I find is after a few episodes I lose interest. Partially because I get the show or the characters. And partially because I prefer to be in a bar or be out than watch tv. I got my apartment, learned how to read cards, found my astrology teacher, and met my children's mother. Through people I met in bars and parties. I don't know if there ever was a golden age without distraction. It is the job of the government to keep you distracted so you don't think about your situation. So you have distractions or pageantry: TV, movies, entertainment, war and a day in day the coliseum. I have generally spent between 10 to 50% percent of my time reading or writing. In addition trying to improve my craft and doing astrological research projects. So I don't have much interest in devoting more than 5 hours a month for TV and music. Bars, pubs, parties, plays, concerts and music I put in a different category. Since they stimulate my brain or provide social reaction, sometimes both. I don't generally get that same interaction with most tv or entertainment. Then there's the Olympics. Which is a bit different for me than more commercial sports. I find that I'll watch a sport that I have never seen before and I amazed and inspired by the dedication. Also there are some amazing human stories.

Cynique your moon is in cancer,which is ruled by the moon. So even though your sun sun is one of two of the most masculine signs. Your moon is in the most feminine sign. Also have okuto there will make you very aware in a subconscious level of all things lunar. So you may find if you have one drink of alcohol it may really effect you.

I would have to look at the entire chart. She may not have fire but she could have planets in a house that is ruled by fire. Or she could have a fire sign in an angular house which could give her a fiery temperament. So I don't look at any aspect of the chart on isolation. When reading a chart you try to breathe life into the chart and find the person. One of the things I learned from your chart is a person with Mercury and Venus in Taurus. Tend to rely on expert opinion. Although this could be true of other sign types if Mercury and Taurus are in the same sign. I'll have to check.

I will attempt to answer. Your instructor is displaying extra sensory perception. Birh you and your sister are correct in your opinions. You can't prove opinions. Perhaps there are subjective ways to measure its validity, accuracy would present more if challenge. This could be done statistically. Astrology may be proven within 16 months. Although that's my intuition. I am a bit uncertain about your position. You believe there's something to astrology. Yet you haven't seen any proof. How would you explain his accuracy?

There's nothing a would add to your definition. I have recently starting looking at the stars in the nsral chart. Yes some people are born under luck stars. Cynique it could be your moon sign.

Well that's it, finding a way to deal with negativity

Jyotish, referring to jyot, or "light" and "isha", or "lord", is the contemplation of the divinity expressing as time and space. Also known as Vedic astrology

What would constitute proof of astrology?

I don't know. Your astrology teacher mailed a blind reading, that's impressive.

Troy that's interesting. So your teacher described your sister to a tee is not proof. But you will take as proof the opinion of someone more knowledgeable than yourself. If he had a diploma in astrology would that constitute "proof" ?

Cynique I find that letting go if the negative emption liberating and life affirming. Perhaps understanding or acceptance is better. I don't want to keep having an internal dialogue that starts, What are they doing?. I just don't see the point. My energy can best be use for my own development. Instead of passive resistance what would hqve been a better tactic or strategy?

The astrology is an interesting one because you took some classes. If you were terrible at it would you still believe it works or makes sense.

Cynique - I wouldn't say I love my enemies. And there's a thinner line between returning hate with hate. Compassion as pity, what about empathy. What tool did Gandhi and King use.

Cynique I believe there us a power or economic component to prejudice. Which stems from insecurity. So the solution may involve practical steps and addressing motivational and psychology issues. The practical us more short term and can be legislated. The personal issue id more long term. However I feel a solution needs both to succeed.

If someone hates me I lose more than hating then back. You can use injustice as a motivator in a way that you can not use hate. There was injustices committed by Black make slaves to Black female slaves did that improve the situation? I don't think anyone us powerless. Ghsndi, King, Mandela and Shabazz priced thus to be true. Their love and self respect were and ate powerful weapons against a grids injustices. That is my belief, as always you are free to believe otherwise. And it doesn't make either belief more valid.

Cynique I am not certain what you mean.

Troy can you give me a few and how did you test them?

Who tries to prove or disprove their beliefs?

I have been looking at the truth for a bit more than a year yet I couldn't see it. When you get angryupset annoyed, it is not them it is you. So the anger or the love you feel to the other is the anger or love you feel for yourself. So being compassionate for others will save your life.

Believing gives hope to some. Perhaps everyone is right and they go to a custom heaven or hell of their choosing. Del

Your entire world is in your mind.

It is about finding balance.

I was talking with my neighbor about this. I said the problem is bigger than government corruption. We also need to look at the global prostitution ring. Men of the first world using women of the second and third world. There is a corollary of women going to third world countries for sex. However they probably aren't having sexual relations with underage boys. The teachers and the priest have that one covered.

Troy I am going to take a little poetic license. If we are not less than trees, and we are not more than trees. Ipso facto we are the equal of trees. Hence we get reborn in the spring, just like Jesus and EasterIshtar

Troy you must be doing something right. You came up on the first page of the Google search.
