People who don't own their experience, who put their emotions and frames onto you, make me feel uncomfortable. It comes out in subtle little ways, the whiff of non-ownership, and I get kinda triggered when it happen. Aand I think this is basically my deal with astrology/magic. 6/

Not all people who enjoy astrology-and-co. trigger me, but the majority do. But this is a terrible trend in spirituality to figure out a frame for an experience and then *use it on the world, including you*. They are *not* curious about other explanations for the sense of 7/
