Starting to regret ever learning about astrology.
Understanding the Impact of Astrology on Mental Well-Being
Astrology can influence thoughts and emotions but focusing excessively may lead to mental fatigue. Recognizing that astrology is a belief system rather than a science helps maintain perspective and reduces obsessive thinking. Balancing curiosity with healthy boundaries allows you to enjoy astrology without it taking over your mental space.
Maybe astrology is just a bunch of BS.
And maybe it can introduce you to the energies you were gifted and give you a better understanding of yourself, others and the universe as a collective. Your astrological knowledge can be helpful or it can be destructive, the choice is up to you though.
So what you are saying is I'm ridiculous for having these thoughts...
How is it up to me? I can think positive things about astrology and guess what? I'm still thinking about astrology instead of something that is HERE AND NOW. it distracts from the only thing that IS for sure real and the only thing that can bring us happiness which is the here and now... the moment. Hobbies, relationships, life...
You can learn all the cosmic wonders of the universe... And have that all in your mind... But guess what? IT means nothing. Because despite all the spiritual facts of life, we are still on earth as humans. We are SUPPOSED to be living life. That is what we are here to do. To distract ourselves from that to ponder things that if by some chance happen to be cosmic spiritual facts, are just that... cosmic spiritual facts... and thus already exist and are already in order. They don't change if we know them or not... So why? Why learn about them... Why take time away from the very thing they are in place to create and organize just to understand?
You take time away to learn a martial art, you have that skill. you take time away for college to become educated, you have education. you take time away to learn spiritual new aged stuff... You have either one of two things.... wasted energy being as that there is always that chance that it is all in our heads... and that the universe and personalities are completely different than what we think they are. Or we have useless knowledge. All the good things that I have learned from focusing on the singular consciousness theory and astrology could have been discovered in a material way using life experiences and the here and now.
It's like a hamster realizing he is a house pet and that is why he is surrounded by walls and has an exsercize wheel... now he knows why, but nothing changes... he still uses the same exercise wheel and runs up and down the same plastic tubing. He now just understands it, which if anything distracts him from ENJOYING the simplicity of it. I want someone to logically justify using the mental energy we have on spirituality and astrology.
In the end of all my spiritual research and meditation... for this to be the conclusion for me to come to is both freeing, and depressing. Wasted energy, and theres no going back... But this conclusion is the ONLY honest, logical one I can think of.
I wrote that a few months ago when I was still in that loop. Fucking corny isn't it? LOL... I'm embarrassed of it.
Ha... At least if it were the matrix I could download all the skills I just mentioned into my head and have the best of both worlds.
If it is any consolation, most Pisces annoy me with just their presence. It is like a natural urge that I want to punch them in the face...🙂 lol.
If it's any consolation, the majority of the Pisces here feel the same about you. **Exhales.** I've been wanting to admit that forever. My conscience is now clear.

You feel good now? Make you feel superior to put someone down?
You choose how to use and what to do with any knowledge that you acquire, astrology is no different. So you allowed a hobby to get out of hand and it turned into an addiction. If you came to the conclusion that there's nothing beneficial in learning astrology, if it really stops you from living a happy life, find the willpower to let it go. Complaining won't do any good. It's not going to be easy as with any addiction, it's not like you can erase it from your memory, but it's possible to become indifferent to it.
The reason I type so many comments is because I think of things after I press enter. Its the way my brain works. Sorry if its annoying I guess? Lol. So far everyone but theatrum has had only sarcastic responses, so how do I take that into consideration?

So I'm the bad guy? LOL. You're acid tripping. G'Luck mate.

How does my past acid trips have anything to do with me being the bad guy or you being the bad guy? You completely changed the subject... You told me that you and the majority of this board don't like me... That hurts a bit, ouch. I hope it made you feel better though. Now you and the others have that common ground and can feel accepted and liked. At my expense lol... But since I did LSD in the past, you are right... Its completely justified.
Oh, well then in that case I take it all back. Lol.

I mean, what someone finds beneficial, helpful, or simply fun, another may not. Why over intellectualize it?
Well I suppose you are right theatrum. If only it were as easy as that. But I feel like it needs to be intellectualized or I won't learn the lesson. And the reason I inquire is to see if I am alone on this.

A lot of people use this as means to seek predictability, control and the impression that they can avoid getting hurt by real life. That is tempting but ultimately just an illusion.
So my question to you sir, as you seem like a fairly logical and balanced person thus far... Is how do you use it?

I was trying to be humorous but I think I made some contribution.

Sarcastic humor requires tone of voice and facial expression to be understood. It is the art of saying one thing and using tone and facial expression to hint another. Unless I knew you well enough to know you have a sarcastic sense of humor, how the hell would I know? Use your head.
You're so fucking self absorbed.
You're so fucking self absorbed.
Yes, I am aware of that. I am trying to figure myself out and how I want to fit into life right now. How dare an 18 year old be in that mindset? We should all be as mature as the 54 year old cyber bully P angel.
Oh and my secret language reading says I am likely to fall into self absorption throughout my life. So ha! P angel insulting someone for being themselves... as usual. But of course, never do we see your true personality or even looks. You hide behind your critisism and elitism. Oh and your corny little mouse picture. Why do I get the feeling you are a bitter blue collar worker who threw away your life or something? Lol, regardless by being so rude and projecting so much critisim to so many people at your age, you truly are a pathetic excuse of a human being. My mom is as old as you lol. Any problems i have, can be fixed... I have tons of time to learn and mature... You are done bro... all you have left to look forward to is your frontal lobes decaying. Look how far you came in life... 😆 pathetic.
Looks like you were just ready to pounce on someone who looked available.
Was that your attempt at shifting the focus off the fact that you are 54 years old and just tried to make an 18 year old feel bad about himself for being self absorbed? I have plenty of time left... You are probably going to die in 20 or so years lol. I'd call you a grandma but I have this itching feeling like you don't have grand kids or even kids, because you spend most your time on here trying to cyber bully people. I know all the 50 year olds I know in my life are busy with their jobs and kids... All you have is your rudeness.
Because no, I was not ready to pounce. You threw first blow old man. You know what might give you a sense of purpose? A harley... I hear thats what all the midlife crisis fatties are getting now to distract them from their depressing existences.

You know, you are right... I should use it to be sarcastic on dxpnet like you do! Man what a fool I've been.

Okay first of all dude... by insulting her back by what you perceive to be criticism makes you any different how?
Furthermore, I have been on this site for well over a year and not once have I had P-Angel criticize me... (crosses fingers and knocks on wood) lol
I mean she said what two sentences and you go on a tyraid about anything you can think of to say awful about her.
What the hell is the point of this thread?

I like this new vigilante PVAF so far!I am no longer suffering fools. DarthPVAF mode. 😉
As you should. Nothing wrong with saying it like it is. I've seen it too but you know how it goes around here, as long as someone got enough people backing them up they can get away with saying the rudest things.

BTW, you read too far into what people say.
Are you a social worker? A therapist? A professional in any way? What gives you the intellectual authority to state such a claim as a fact? You don't know me, or even how the human brain works, therefore you are in no way qualified to create the opinion that I read too far into what people say. Maybe its just my personality to read into things. Maybe things need to be read into and YOU live in a world of lies? Maybe its somewhere in between... Either way, you don't know. So quit acting like you do.

Perhaps this thread has been made a trillion times on here... And I'm just another nimrod beating the same dead horse... But man... asgrology consumes my thoughts. I have been told to just "not think about it" as a solution by my scorpio friend who is also very into astrology, and as nice as that sounds... I CANT!!! I could use the mental space to think about guitar, socializing, creative humor, creative writing, bodybuilding, riding (motocross), and all the other stuff I LOVE experiencing... But instead I spend 80% of my mental energy some days thinking about scorpios and pisces... I obsess over my own sign, its weird. I wonder if I'm a typical pisces or a pisces at all because people like kurt cobain and other pisces are so much more passive and well liked than me. I get into tons of arguments at work and make friends easily only through humor, never has someone said "You are so sweet!" Because naturally, I am not sweet... My natural state is indifference to most things. Is this a pisces trait? Who knows... Who cares! What a wasteful mental tangent. And thats just the tip of the ice burg... It really is. All of that is time I could have spent bettering myself and my hobbies! Ignorance could be bliss in this situation... and theres no going back. What does knowing astrology give us? That is the question I'd love someone to answer for me... Unless I want to be a crystal ball wielding nut job, it will get me nowhere. It is fun at first, and then turns into a waste of energy. So yeah... wondering if anyone else can relate to my rant right about now... What kind of pisces worries about stuff like this? Maybe astrology is just a bunch of B.S....

Haters gonna hate. Come at me brah.
Self-knowledge is the main reason to study astrology.
Know yourself and you will conquer your destiny.
Achieving knowledge is not an easy task, because knowledge is not good or evil. It's a weapon.
And if you are not courageous enough, that weapon will destroy your mind.
You must leave your feelings behind, If you want to achieve true knowledge.
If that's your case, you should left your water energy behind and work in your Saggitarius risign energy.
Because you've got a lot of Fire in your chart.
~Knowledge is immortal and brave, and has no fear of the grave~

In addition, it can give you an edge in understanding people and relationships.

^Case in point, dude. I'm not your enemy and I'm not trying to condescend. I was referring to you getting upset when people say that you're sweet. People say that to anyone who's quiet. So... sorry for "acting" however it is I act. lol

I see, thats why I was confused because there is nowhere that I actually say I get upset when people say I'm sweet so there is no way I could have interpreted it that way. Miscommunication. I am just defensive because a lot of people like to condescend on here and I will challenge each one. If someone is going to talk down to me, they better be able to back it up.

No, you're right, that was ME reading too far into things. I assumed it was something that bothered you since you included it in your general rant in the OP, which seemed to be things that you were upset about.

Ahh yes well my writing style is a bit confusing in your defense. No clear direction really... Trying to improve that. I must say in the end this random thread has paid off as I have learned I am a bit self absorbed these days, and I started to connect it to very prominent issues in my social life and now am taking steps to improve it. First step is to end this conversation about myself. So I thank all of you for the responses! And P-angel, while I doubt your goal was to give me a wake up call, I thank you.
I know exactly what you mean. I got into astrology only a few months ago and I'm already thinking that I might have been better off not knowing anything about it. I also obsess over pisces and Scorpio, (probably because I live with a pisces and a Scorpio) and I devote way too much time to thinking about our interactions with each other and how our charts and the current placements are affecting us. I'm pretty much useless at this point.
blunttrauma find a sport and some hobbies its the only escape!!! Started muay thai a few days ago and I am obsessing over that now instead! It's nice 🙂

You obviously haven't addressed your issue ... rather just exchanged it with another object.
