A "Real" Astrologist is Angry with Me
Last week I had someone write in and ask which pseudosciences I believe in, and the answer, in short, was none, since they are pseduosciences.
A believer in astrology, which is a totally debunked example of pseudoscience, called in and was very angry with me.
My video is at DLive
I think using the term "science" is the downfall of these practices. To me, they are poetic arts - the tarot, astrology etc are all interesting poetic devices, like dreams, that we can use like Rorschach tests, to see what comes up psychologically for us. But they are obviously not exact sciences. To discount them wholesale, is like discounting Shakespeare because it is fiction - it holds many symbolic and archetypal truths. But again, it is obviously not to be taken literally or as gospel.

Or in the cards. I'm sure she'll learn to deal with it; even if she's not on deck.
I gotta hand it to you: you had me shuffling in my response, well played, sir.

@davidpakman lmao, I like how you ripped astrology to shreds!!
This is funny though, I just recently watched a 7 year old video of Topiary (Jack Davis), a rep from Anonymous and Shirley from Westboro Baptist Church have at it on your show, until Anonymous hacked the shit out of WBC lmao. It's crazy though, I watched that video literally last night on youtube, and just now came upon a Steemian post by @davidpakman, and thought that name rung a bell somewhere.
Glad you're on Steemit mate, cheers! ;)

No, it's a full psuedoscience. It's just thoroughly and wholly rejected on every level.
And I love astrology, I'm actually quite an expert on it... I'm huge into occultism, despite being a Christian, it's always fascinated me.
And yes I can read tarot cards. That's another form of divination, but it's super interesting...
