May 2022 | 17 and astrology , it is a belief . Some people do and some people don ’ t , each individual will have their own beliefs which will differ . Like Christians believe in one God and are rarely questioned on the validity or truth , so why is it so common for people to believe horoscopes are just nonsense .
4 . Do you think that if astrology says that you ’ re incompatible with someone , you should break the friendship or relationship completely ? No , I do not . I believe that you should not let one thing ruin what could be a long-term friendship or relationship . However , you should understand that you could have particularly different character traits . As a result , there may be friction at times but why not use this to your advantage and make it a positive thing and learn from each other . As mentioned before , it is not just one sign , you have many across your chart , all relating to different aspects of your life and you may be very ‘ compatible ’ with an individual in terms of a friendship , but in a business or professional partnership , it would be very difficult to work together .
5 . Experts say astrology has a significant impact on people ’ s mental health such as helping them cope with stress during difficult times , what are your thoughts on this ? On a personal level , I can honestly say that astrology along with other spiritual ideas and practices have truly benefited my mental health . It has been a good distraction to focus my energies on something other than work or university and has allowed me to make connections with people who are now good friends . I have found as well that by looking at my birth chart as a whole I have a better understanding of myself and why I may react to certain things in certain ways . It has helped me to grow as an individual , socially and given me much more confidence . I believe it is the same for any belief whether it be astrology , Christianity , Buddhism etc . If you as an individual are able to gain positive results from believing in what you do then yes , I do believe it is better for your mental health . I know for me it is comforting .
6 . Why do you think some people don ’ t relate to their star signs ? Some people may not relate to their sun sign due to having much more to their horoscope as a whole . I know in the past I have helped individuals to break down their charts , and they have understood and related better as a whole as opposed to just their sun sign .
7 . What are some common astrology misconceptions ? The major one for me is that Gemini ’ s are viewed as ‘ two faced ’ or ‘ bitchy ’. Gemini is the sign of the twins and is quite a chaotic energy , perhaps even mischievous at times however people often view this as being ‘ two faced ’. It is mainly those who do not know anything or perhaps very little about astrology that have this view . I think zodiacs are often misinterpreted or looked into

too much and over analyzed . When you begin to read into your horoscopes you can often misinterpret it , or focus on just the good and positive as opposed to what challenges may be around the corner .
8 . Why is it that some people have a harder time believing in astrology ? I think a lot of people do not know enough about astrology and are not willing to educate themselves on the idea that it ’ s ‘ silly ’ or just a ‘ scam .’ For those who have a hard time believing I often tell them this ; The Moon controls all bodies of water on earth , for example controlling the tides . As humans , we are made up of about 60 % water , therefore the moon has its effect on us too . There is a science behind it . One thing I love about astrology is that it is always open to your interpretation and you can either choose to take it or leave it .
9 . Do you think that the more you believe in a religion , the less you believe in astrology ? I think this is different for each individual because it is a belief . If you put your time and energy into your beliefs but not others you are more likely to believe more in one thing than the other . I have had people in the past who have Christian beliefs tell me that I worship Satan because I believe in astrology and often question my beliefs in other spiritual practices . I have had a number of conversations with this individual explaining that these are my beliefs and I respect that your beliefs are different however that does not make mine any more or less valued than theirs . I think that certain religions are so set in their ways that they are unwilling to educate themselves and respect new ideas and beliefs that are becoming more popular . However , this is not the case for everyone .
