Ppl who are real into astrology/conspiracies/woo beliefs *really* trigger me, but it's not because of the beliefs themselves, it's what it indicates about the person. To me, it implies a profound lack of curiosity in checking to see if their beliefs are true. 1/

It’s even wilder that a lot of us in that sphere are actually very smart and often very educated people, with great analytical skills, but also with compassion for human spiritual needs. It’s almost like we’re aware that multi-dimensional, multi-disciplinary thinking is valid.

…not to mention the intense interest that many astrologers and occultists have, in disciplines like philosophy, mathematics, and science. Sounds like your own experience of this branch of human interest are pretty limited. What an opportunity for learning you’ve found…

would you be down to do some tests of the things you believe? we can both independently agree to the conditions and preregister which outcomes would cause us to update our beliefs

I don’t mind tests, but astrology is not one of my strong suits. It’s complementary to my primary work. I shared to my TL to see if anyone is willing to meaningfully engage, and I’ll happily answer questions on things I know more about.
