So I tried the relationship calculator...

Here are the possible relationships suggested:
- Stable, with friendship slowly replacing love
- Getting on well at meeting, then growing drastically apart
- Passionate love at first sight that burns out
- "Favourable union of minds - speak to each other about things they don't speak about with others"
- An ideal couple

Frankly, doesn't one of those describe nearly every romantic relationship?

The more open-ended your prediction, the easier it is to later claim that the prediction was fulfilled.

when i was a teenager, i looked into 2 aspects of astrology and i found them potentially useful as a metal framework within which to perceive things.
the first aspect was the "earth air fire and water" aspect, and the second was the "cardinal fixed and mutable" aspect.
i thought it was nifty to try and explore ideas using those 2 "slide rules" of notion.

first, i thought that "earth" was another name (in this instance) for matter, and that "air" was another name for spacial existential possibility, and that "fire" was another name for the energy that drives the process of the universe, and that "water" was the laws of physics that governed the flow of existential evolution.

on the other slide rule, "cardinal" means "creating" (roughly), and "fixed" means "preserved" and "mutable" means "destruction".

i tried to think of all 12 aspects of reality using the filter of those 2 mental "slide rules", but it occurred to me that matter is equal to energy, and so the whole thing fell apart.

i never believed any predictions could be made using astrology at any time.

I'm a Sagittarius, the only sign of the Zodiac with a black hole(that we know of). Even if other signs have them, Sagittarius has the closest SUPERMASSIVE black hole to Earth and that makes it pretty unique. 8)

am one also, though some might say I was really an ophiuchus as I was born early in the Sagittarius month. can you tell me what quality would you say the black hole adds to Sagittarius?

facetiousness aside, you bring up a good point in that Sagittarius has its dark and heavy side, I am sure.

Acupuncture is ancient psuedo-science that doesn't work, either.:study:

Doh! :wall:

Well, then, we must have empirical evidence to prove why it works, not just mumbo-jumbo about barely discernible bioelectrical fields and interconnected pressure points, right? :chin:

DeRp.
This can't be - western science knows everything and is always right. Ancient belief systems are all anti-intellectual superstition. There is nothing useful or important in the universe that modern technologically civilized humans don't already know. :rambo:

This seems to be a post lacking in any coherent argument, and either resorting to straw man arguments or degenerating into non-sequiturs.

Never mind that we don't know how acupuncture could possibly work - we know it doesn't.
