Many people for as many reasons chose only to date within a certain age group, others do not, providing of course both are free and able to marry. You are able to change the settings in your profile so only those within the age range you specify are able to contact you. Had the lady that was offended set her age range she would not have received your message, it is you that has been offended by her not doing so, through her own ignorance. (Go to settings and select Limit Who Can Send You Mail, if you wish to specify an age range).

I am VERY intrigued & tysm for posting this Crystal. I've been feeling something & hope everything you say comes to pass.

In response to the last post...
Ofc it does come down to what you are open to accept. I've done a lot of reading on this because I had never truly believed it until I researched the different signs & compared them irl to people I know and love. Guess what? what is said about each sign and how each interacts with each other, is pretty damn close to what i experience and witnessed. Imo that is not just random.

I'm a show me person, proof is what I see personally to be true.
If that is true, it stands to reason planet alignment is true & not some made up fantasies.

Thanks again Crystal flowerforyou


@ pumpilicious, you say conducted a very small comparison test which seemed to support the conjecture, " I researched the different signs & compared them irl to people I know and love. Guess what? what is said about each sign and how each interacts with each other, is pretty damn close to what i experience and witnessed. Imo that is not just random."

Statistics is a mathematical science, well founded in mathematical theory, and here are the results of one test carried out in1985, taken from the above mentioned website report, a much larger test than the one you did and professionally carried out as explained below.

"In 1985, physicist Shawn Carlson conducted a double-blind test of the idea that astrological charts could accurately describe our personality traits and published his results in the journal Nature.

Carlson asked 30 American and European astrologers, ranked by their peers as among the best, to review the astrological charts for 116 people without meeting them in person. He then provided three personality descriptions for each of the 116 people. One description was the one that actually described the subject. The other two were real personality descriptions … but they described other people. Carlson asked the astrologers to match the right personality with the person’s astrological chart.

Overall, the astrologers matched one in three charts correctly, so their results were no better than they would be based on random chance.

The result? The astrologers were only able to make the correct match one-third of the time. In other words, given three personality descriptions for a subject, you’d have a one in three chance of picking the right one. Overall, the astrologers matched one in three charts correctly, so their results were no better than they would be based on random chance."

This isn't proof, but it supports my belief, that my life and my future are not written in the stars.

again, perception & you're obviously not accepting it could be possible. Also,
I've had my chart done & it had me to a T. That is not coincidental.

This isn't proof, but it supports my belief, that my life and my future are are written in the stars.

Idk why felt the need to respond, when the OP asked you to stay on subject. If we wanted to debate if astrology exists, we would start that thread.

Good day sir.



Clearly you are believer. I have no wish to offend anyone, but what was first posted by the OP has no basis in fact, which was the point I was making. Other points of view are allowed here in Mingle2.

It goes on to say,

"Astrology is generally defined as the belief that astronomical phenomena, like the stars overhead when you were born or the fact that opens in a new windowMercury is in retrograde, have the power to influence the daily events in our lives and our personality traits. This is, of course, very different from the study of astronomy, which is the scientific study of celestial objects, space, and the physics of the universe."

"Astrology fails to predict life event outcomes any better than chance. It also fails to provide a mechanism by which it could work. What exactly is the connection between the stars overhead when you were born and whether or not you should make big decisions in the summer? My searches for any such explanations came up empty."

It seems to me it comes down to what you are prepared or want to believe.

Can you please stick to the subject which is "Pluto is going to move into Aquarius", or if that's not your thing just forego it. This is NOT an "is astrology true or not" discussion.



Whatever the planet Pluto is doing, I don't expect it to have any influence on my life or on my future. Astrology has no basis in science in my opinion, and is not my thing.

Interesting read, but I guess it's whether you believe in Astrology or not, it's not a science.

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-astrology-real-heres-what-science-says/#:~:text=Astrology%20is%20founded%20on%20understanding,None%20whatsoever.
(you may need to paste this in to your browser)

Says,

"About a third of Americans believe astrology is "very" or "sort of scientific." But does being a Pisces, Virgo rising really matter in the eyes of science?"

"Clearly, lots of people are looking for ways to interpret the stars for advice. Astrology is founded on understanding the positions of the stars, which seems like a scientific enough pursuit in itself. But is there any science to back up whether astrology impacts our personality and our lives?"

"Here’s the short Answer: No. None whatsoever."
