Just thought I would start a thread on this for fun. My MIL is big time into it but I am a huge sceptic...but weirder things have happened.
Since there were a lot of people on this board I would just like to hear what everybody has to say. I always told my W that it was full of it but she was a believer and lately through this the MIL has been creeping me out.
What say you?

Christians know that not only is it crap (thanks Melody), that it is actually evil. So, if you are a Christian (and your if your wife is), you need to run from this.

I agree with Mel, and it is also spiritually dangerous to dabble in such things.

My mom says that it is a tool of the debil. Kinda like ouija boards. My mom told me some creepy stories from her youth about that and one is not allowed in her house.

I admit--I read my horoscope daily. Only once has it been even close to the events of the day. It was creepy close ("You will bring smiles to the grieving today" the day I went to my h.s. boyfriend's funeral, where I spent some time remembering and laughing with his sisters, near 15 years after I'd seen them last), but not a good track record considering it's one day out of 20-odd years.
I think it's entertaining, but I also think that God made things for a reason, and stars can't just be there to look pretty, can they?
Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

I am actually afraid of it because of the things that I had been shown. I want nothing to do with it. My MIL plays pianno and is a member and all of the local Methodist church but she has been into this for years. I think it is evil but she doesnt. She does all of the stuff depending on your exact birthdate and time and all that. She done matches with WW and OM and showed her what they said, and they were right on. Something about some planet right now and my WW has something going on for a year that started when the A started and it nails it. Too weird and everything. I try to avoid it at all costs.
