(I voted “bad for my mind”) my girlfriend has been super into astrology recently; from what I understand, the motives are similar to those of many religious positions: generalizations that appear to fit your lived circumstance are comforting and reaffirming

Yes, as they have the only models that describe some of the wyrdness i have come across. It does not mean that those models are correct. It just means that those models can accept the evidence that the scientific models ignore. Observe, hypothesise, test, and, reiterate. :D

This was SO HARD TO ANSWER - I’ve been looking recently for sign/ritual systems that give fresh meaning to my everyday life, without needing to commit any misguided belief to their causal/predictive power. So I guess that’s ironic in the sense of Willfully Distanced? But no lulz

Clarifying my "No, it's bad for my mind" vote -- taking seriously any of the underlying truth claims is flawed and wrong, but I sometimes learn valuable lessons from the generic advice that comes from them. So maybe 90% No/bad, 10% Yes/seriously
