i really hate astrology. it’s one of the many different things people use to distract themselves from the real, solvable issues in life.

Ran out of room in my post, but I also can’t help when I am born, none of us can. I am the only person in my family that have EDS symptoms. Mental health issues are very genetic in my family. Many of my relatives and my sibling have some form of mental illness, but I am the only Gemini in my family right now, so this isn’t just because of my sign, and I really hate people making this out to be my fault. It sucks and it hurts

I feel like some people turn astrology into something that is supposed to be light hearted and fun and use it in ways that are problematic and harmful to folks

definitely. i believe new age spirituality is just christianity repackaged with new vocabulary. instead of being having issues because the devil has a hold of you, you have issues bc of how the stars are aligned.
