if you consider the images are beautiful there's no harm in showing some respect for such a tradition

There's also no harm in making fun of it.

it bothers me as an astrologer, I wouldn't mind asking for respect otherwise, but maybe you just don't care

Replying to
But I do care. What I'm saying is that it's okay to make fun of things. I make fun of myself and my beliefs all the time. Astrology will not care one bit if I make fun of it. (For the record, I'm not a believer, but I've had my chart done a few times!)
Replying to
Ok, thank you for taking the time to explain you didn't mean to be offensive. Sure and luckily Astrology doesn't care one bit, I may be too sensitive today. It's not a matter of belief tho, there's no dogma in symbolic languages
