Dunno why people get so hung up on whether or not our fates are governed by the movement of the heavens (what do you think?), when there's much more to the subject than that - an amazing amount of very interesting information tied-up in the astrological archetypes - the planets, the signs, the houses for a start.

I would say that such baby as there is falls under a literary or psychological/mythological heading rather than the usual claims re personality types, influence, etc. After all, an orange held at arm's length exerts more gravitational force over me than most the stars...as would a crab, a cone, or an overripe tomato. - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 15:43:56 +0000 From: craigie* Subject: Re: Darth Mercury Heep Ah, but you would say that, seing as you're a ... c* ..realising the joke doesn't work so well if you don't know someone's starsign...
