Well you failed miserably old chap. The Earth - as I keep pointing out - is not the centre of the galaxy. There are no "houses" and most constellations don't actually exist, they are line of sight conveniences. And planets do not go backwards. Astrology disproves itself by failing to take any of this into account. It takes an iron age view of the cosmos, it's all moved on so much it's hilarious that anyone might still think that the position of some of the planets at the time of their birth (why then?) might be relevant to the rest of their lives or even their personality. We've much better explanations for how personalities develop. The stars are as distant from us as we are from them. So there aint nuthin wrong with my knowledge of astronomy but the beauty of that statement is that it's out of date as soon as I type it, because knowledge doesn't stand still, unless you still use a horoscope drawn up before they'd even discovered there were planets beyond Saturn. LOL. I let you go so you can grab some of those fresh peanuts that have just been roasted. :-D Just kiddin' Seriously, I like peanuts and I'd be happy to be convinced about astrology. My mind is open, and besides, I'd really like that lottery win!
