I just started this television show and one of the people is super into astrology which made me curious...

Is astrology as popular as it once was?

I'm a Gemini for what that is worth...I don't know much about it other than the "twins" thing and that "that makes sense" when people are told.

Are you "into" astrology or aware of it?

Please no hate, I'm genuinely curious.

@mentallyalex There are Tarot card reading businesses around me, so that kind of stuff is definitely still a thing (granted, Florida caveat, but still). I think (?) newspapers still do daily horoscopes too, don't they?

Personally, I put it in the same category as religion: just another attempt to find order in the chaos of life.

@LouisIngenthron I think that is where it lands with me, to be honest.

I don't know a lot about it but it's interesting I think.

@mentallyalex Oh yeah, from a sociological standpoint, it's fascinating. Also, it feels like a lot of those kinds of systems can be predatory, and astrology always felt pretty benign by comparison.
