Do you believe some people are truly unlucky?
Is Some People Truly Unlucky or Is It Perception?
Astrology suggests that luck can be influenced by planetary positions and personal choices. While some believe certain individuals are naturally luckier, others see luck as a reflection of mindset and circumstances. Recognizing patterns in your astrological chart may help understand your luck and how to improve it.
like if someone trips on a banana skin and falls on a dog shit and catch aids or something?
At least they can make a movie out of it or sthg

I think our mindset is what causes us to be unlucky. A positive mindset will bring good things into your life.. a negative one will have you always asking "why me?"You create your own luck.. I see this within people everyday and know from personal experience, as I am one who lives in a negative mind.. explaining why luck has never found me 😛
well i don't think that much so it must be the other person LOL!
my mom was recently telling me about a korean game show that measured luck. it pitted past winners vs. past losers. no skill involved i think just games of chance. if anyone has seen the episode fill me in on the conclusion.

yes!
bad movie but i enjoyed the concept. frequency or was it frequencies. not the dennis quaid flick. the characters measured luck with exact change. the number of times you just happened to give exact change was proportion to your overall luck.

Jealous!! Wanna trade brains? Lol
Hmm, that's interesting. I have never heard of anything like that before. Does it seem random or do you notice that the luck follows the same people?

the chinese think you can get luck from other people. i think there is even a method of hiring people in their luck periods. it kinda makes sense coz why should luck be something fixated on one person right? i don't see why it can't be infectious.

Create your own opportunities.
Luck will follow.
But yes, I have seen some lucky people.
I have a friend, whoever he befriends on his own,gets close to, fights with and loses contact, that friend becomes filthy rich. Four guys till now. All are rich.
he's like the good luck chuck of entrepreneurs?

IMO there's no such thing as lucky or unlucky. Otherwise the universe would be unfair no? (: .. Everything is as such..

what if it went in cycles? lucky would mean you were just born in this lifetime during a good one and everyone gets to experience being both? ah but i just freaked myself out thinking of the afterlife!
No, I don't.

Hmm.. Lucky or unlucky is really relative and subjective to everyone.. A rich cannot be compared to poor and say - rich man is lucky whereas poor is unlucky...... It's really subjective.
But...what do you mean, firebunny, please elaborate?? :p
Yes, they are called capricorns. Ever heard of Saturn?😉
I do. Let's say on a coin heads is good luck, tails is bad. Statistically in most cases, out of say 20 flips, the odds will pretty even between heads and tails. But some times heads might show much more, and likewise tails could show much more. This doesn't mean that after the first 20 flips the next 20 flips isn't the opposite outcome. Lets however say that a humans lifespan is only equal to the 20 flips. So theoretically speaking some humans will have better luck, worse luck, or equal luck.

I think with me I am that girl who if you do her wrong something bad will happen to you. male and female alike.😐 It's funny you say that, I'm the same way or I also have that as an experience in my life... It's really weird!
People that have done harm to me have had major karma done to them! I've never really had to take revenge in any way.
Also, people that have done good for me, they also get a HUGE amount of luck given to them (including my husband).
Is it luck? Is it major coincidence? Who knows... But, it is something odd.

lol do you think pessimism= unlucky? i catch my jupiter in cap in action sometimes. i always say no at first to new things or i am suspicious of new ventures working.
Yes.
I know people who just cannot catch a break...and before someone says it's about mindset, all of them are not succombing to negativity or not taking chances, yet the same cloud keeps on following them.

The things that happen to people are neutral.
It's their own state and frame of reference that fills it in as negative or positive.

No. As I see it, Saturn is there every step of the way to make sure the native can never quite relax. There is always something going wrong. It's not pessimism, it's realism - cause shit always happens with Saturn. I'm not even kidding - Saturnians can't get away with anything. Tbh, I don't really mind. I'm so used to it - that's life. *shrugs* And it keeps me on my toes. 🙂
This is also why I think everyone think Saturnians are so pessimistic. We warn them against not doing this or that, just in case...which most other signs think is just too much work and unnecessary. And tbh, it probably is...for them. In my(our?) experience, we need to do it, or things go to a very warm an unpleasant place, but the others really don't, because, let's face it, they get away with it most of the time.
I sure am not as lucky as my friends when it comes to winning things. Still salty about going to college bingo night for 4 years straight and coming back empty handed. Even my friends who went with me felt sorry for me after a while. A positive attitude wouldn't really help me get the winning numbers either, unfortunately. I wish!
Besides that, things in my life have fallen in to place fairly easily though and I can't say I attribute any of that to having a positive attitude. Sure, there's a chance of sabotaging yourself if you're negative (and even a chance if you're positive, actually), but simply being/feeling positive without taking any action to better your chances at success won't do shit for you. I don't buy in to that stance.
