I’m with EY1, I loosely believe in it. I mean I think something is there but not enough to truly make decisions in life about it, but enough to make me aware of things to watch out for. For example....

We have a book called “The Secret Language of Birthdays”, a detailed astrological breakdown for every day of the year. It is, mind blowing, honestly. Wife, three kids, parents, siblings, cousins, whoever we read about it is spot on, it’s incredible! So I feel like yes, I can get along with people better and understand them better when I know how they tick.

That being said, fortune tellers and palm readers are crap, but pure astrological work is pretty fascinating. I also check in with a psychic occasionally though so, you know, full disclosure 😄❤️

Here is the book:

I'm with EY1 and EY2 - I find it fascinating and when I am bored I tend to guess their astrology sign (ascendant and sun sign) based on their personality traits then see if their birthday match the presumed horoscope. It's actually pretty fun but I wouldn't call it hard science

Lol No

Most people don’t realize you have 9 signs which is why your generic sun sign may not completely match your personality. A friend was really into it and could blindly describe every relationship of mine to a tee.

The station I work at is down at least 15 positions. Some jobs have been open for two years.

The remaining staff is required to step up.

Additional positions are opening up as contracts are either broken or expire.

How are people able to keep their mental health up when their station isn’t hiring people they need and refuse to pay living wages to potential prospects or promote those remaining?

Hi everyone, I’m in need of prayers. My mom was admitted into the hospital recently, but they just found some nodules in her lungs. Their default diagnosis is cancer, and she does have a past history of colon cancer. Please keep her and my family in your prayers. Nothing has been finite, but I can’t help but prepare for the worst & hope for the best. The only thing getting me through this is my faith in God. I do hope this message encourages you to hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight ❤️

So, this is a little awkward, but I recently moved to SD for a fresh start, and honestly, I love this city. My problem is I have been more of a homebody since I moved here and I'm a little intimidated to go out and meet people because I don't feel like I fit in here. I am overweight and this city is full of active, and attractive people. I guess I am wondering what my experience would be if I got out more? I feel like people look at me when I'm in public because I stand out due to my size.
