Has your studies (astrology) halted since then?




Lol. I had a convo about something similar with someone.

I'm not sure if it's here, but I haven't been that keen, other than mostly surface level, on astrology for a while now.

I do see it though as a potential tool and that could be why- tools are used when needed.

I would like to see more about astrology on here though- as so many ideas are presented but only once in a while. Wonder if that's just how it's meant to be though.

thank you for posting

How has your studies been since you came to the site?

Do you still have that verve to learn more and go deep into it?

What studies? I only witness drama & arguments. ._.
right lol



Well.. Your studies with astrology...

Were you submerged in Astrology before joining Dxpnet?

Was it the interest in that or something else that pulled your attention to the site?
My interest in astrology. My attention was only pulled forward to this site cause they were talking about the planet placements & I was triggered cause I didn't know much about it.

Has your interest with astrology wavered since joining?

What are your thoughts on Dxpnet?

I learned a tad whether I wanted to or not. I'm not looking to learn more(I'm not sure if I've ever have). But I'll probably just come across things anyway n learn a bit more. I'm just a teensy bit better than people who know nothing about astrology.
Thank You for responding, Teena

What led you to the site? Was it astrology or something else?

Np?

Actually an article on this site lured me here. Also I needed to vent on the same topic. So I joined. After that I've been pretty on n off.

I am not sure... lol.

And my thoughts on Dxpnet, there's a lot of old women in this site that needs to calm the hell down & stop being so narrow minded. Like damn, they think I am directing things to them cause they have the (insert zodiac name here) & they go off on me.

When I would mention that it was based on my experience, meaning, it doesn't apply to every person with the same zodiac.

Like damn.

Yeah I understand.

You have to be specific here definitely.

Sometimes I feel that a lot of people do not

respond or give me any feedback because my sun

sign or moon sign may have something to do with it.

Almost as if one comes here to learn but is hated on instead.

Some users are helpful but they're rare. I imagine there's better places for people to learn about astrology.
Yes I agree

Thank you for responding ~

There are a few groups on Facebook that are nice.

Do you feel that your studies have lightened or heighten since you came to this site?

I joined dxp just to have fun with astrology so it hasn't really impacted my studying.

Edit: I just realized this is in the Pisces forum ? sorry I'm not a Pisces.

Tbf the first person who ever agreed to teach me astro, I met them through this site.

I personally am not sure that written form is the best way to learn. Backing it up with audio has given much better results.

The aim is to be completely intuitive about it almost to the point I don't even reference it anymore and I believe I'm nearly there. I can read into a chart off hand in 5 minutes more than I could in 1 hour of looking at books just a few years ago. That's liberating because I don't have to look at people through the lens of their charts, or write/speak with them in a style that I used to where it probably came off largely as anally retentive.

On astro forums sure I understand some of the apprehension about discussing it. You can wind up in a thread where people use astro only to hang onto grudges or justify hanging onto what hurt they've been through.


I also feel going about charts and readings intuitively suits me more as well.

Of course finding out about the different energies and rules of things...

that is important and can be a challenge at times...

Do you feel the site itself helps with your studies at all?

I would like for you to check out my chart too sometime.

The energy rules can be challenging yes 🙂 I remember the day I realised I'd be screwing up the rules around essential dignities for years.

Sure if you PM it to me I'd be happy to chip in my 5 minutes worth.

This forum, sometimes it helps yes.

Thank You, Tiziani

I sent my natal chart to you in PM.

As far as the forums go...

I don't feel as though Astrology is seen as sacred here like

it is to me from my observation. Hating others because

of their sun sign or moon sign etc... I don't have any words...



A few others including yourself seem to use it in a way

that guides and helps people understand themselves more,

so its refreshing and worthwhile to come here still at times.

It all depends how you take it. For me my grammar, ability to describe my ideas, creativity, and all around writing skill has progressed a ton since I came here. I'd say overall dxp has done more good then bad for me, but that will always differ from person to person.


wow

but...

what about Astrology though, Soul?

Were you studying astrology before Dxpnet and if so,

are you still doing that at the same rate before you came to the site?

That's somewhat an odd question for me because I never really studied the fundamentals of astrology. Basically I just stuck around the topic of astrology so long that info came to me over time, with the help of my own observation. I literally just learned how to read a circle chart 2 years ago, and been hanging around the topic of astrology for 10 years. I just seen circle charts so many times I eventually could read them. Dxpnet does help in that department, but personally I've never been good at learning things from teachers or explanations. I learn better from taking the time to test things and formulate my own thoughts on why something is.

Though I don't learn much From Dxpnet in particular, it gives me pieces of a puzzle which direct me to ideas I can figure out at my own pace. In the end who's to say without dxpnet I'd have just got bored of astrology, and never made it a part of my life. This could be a good thing, or bad, but I find it good and don't question fate.

Before dxpnet I just enjoyed reading relationship info, sun sign descriptions, and fun questions on Yahoo answers. That led to moon and rising signs, which lead to birth charts. Eventually Yahoo answers wasn't doing it for me anymore, and I really wanted to find a community that would chat about astrology in a more live format. Then I found dxpnet with tons of people talking about relationships, moon signs, rising signs, birth charts, and all kinda of other stuff I never seen or heard before. On top of that some people were going crazy about real life stuff, and personally I loved the liveliness of it all. It was a place to talk and base things off astology, but more importantly open and free for each person to express themselves how they chose. I loved it.

Sorry for writing so much lol. I kind of got lost in my own thoughts there for a bit ^_^

No No. Length is fine. I like it. I love how you've always explained things in the forums.

What you say brings life into it all again I think. You've helped remind me why I wanted to join

in 2015 (deleted multiple times though). I too love how live it is here.

Lately I've just felt out of place and kind of frustrated here as far as fitting in

but I do love the closed off feeling of the online community here and how

quickly one can connect and find friends

It really comes down to how spiritual someone is, in my opinion. I can always tell who on this site actually meditates, looks inward, and is self-aware by their posts. Others on here are great at Astrology/ talking about signs they've encountered, but are not too spiritual in general. I take all answers will a grain of salt so to speak, and this site has taught me to value everyone's opinion even if we have other major differences. It's also fascinating to read what others think about relationships and life in general. Very interesting community. I like it so far. I like helping others with my opinions. Not many people in real life are open to talking about Astrology a lot/long term. They eventually just think it's fake because the media and everyone else in their life calls it a joke.
Thank You for posting.

Do you feel Astrology is Spiritual? I do.

There's this huge amount of respect I hold to it

and so it was kind of an eye opener to see it not

being used in a respectful way. I do love the people

here and the fact that astrology among other spiritual

things are brought up and explored here though. It just

feels frustrating at times seeing it used in a way that separates.
