Shockingly accurate horoscope book

[Klasnikov]

I never used to believe in these things, infact i used to think i'd have an unlucky day if i heard my horoscope on the morning radio.

But my mom gave me this book a while ago, well she lets me read it when i'm at home, and it's so accurate it's scary. It gives several pages of description for each star sign, both male and female, as well as a 'how to identify them' section. I read the one on male capricorns and it had me down to a tee, even said how i'd turn out when i get older.

Thinking it might be a fluke i read a section on a girl i liked at the time and it also described her as best i knew her, and even told me stuff i didn't know at the time but later found out about her. Very scary.

Anyway some ideas have been chucked around about TF and there's the possiblity that me and a few other mods might be starting an agony aunt section thingy, and i think i'll be using this book a fair bit for it! It's called Linda Goodman's Sun Signs, apparently it's sold over a million copies lol.

If anyone wants proof drop me your star sign and i'll give a quick description of you or someone else you're interested in

i think alot of it is people are inclined to believe and kinda subconciously associate or act upon their horoscopes.

They all designed to apply to anyone at any time as they so vague.

But this isn't telling me what's going to happen, it's telling me who i am as a person. It's told me stuff i didn't realise before. But you do have a point, a lot of other horoscopes just influence people then they think 'hey my horoscope was right'.

lol, the very first line is:

You'll get plenty of free advice from this man

just after reading your thread on 'don't buy from dabs'

Extracts from the Libra Man (keeping in mind this is to help a girl firgure out what libra males are like, and it's kinda old fashioned so theres a lot of talk about courting and marriage):

He'll have the perfect solution to all your problems and an answer for every question you as. But there's no use expecting him to be the answer to all your girlish dreams. He'll change some of them and aruge with others. A Libra male can be as cranky as a crocodile with poison ivy, and his habit of rationalizing everything, including love, will drive you to a frenzy - or leave you limp with defeat.

...

Trying to escape from a bear trap is a cinch, compared to liberating yourself from a Libran man. If you try to run, he'll persuade you to stay with such logical, intelligent arguements you couldn't hope to stop them unless you graduated from Harvard Law school.

...

Making up his mind is a chore no less strenuous to the average Libran male than taming a wild buffalo, and once he's made it up, he's liable to change it with no warning if he suspects he's made a mistake.

...

The word love and the word Libra are practically synonymous. Libra invented romance, and refined it to an artwith even more finesse than Leo, Scorpio and Taurus, which is saying a lot. The delicate strategies of Cupid are inbred Libran talents. He'll use every trick with casual ease and seldom fail to get the girl. However, once he gets her, he isn't sure what to do with her. Having thoroughly charmed her into willing submission, he hesitates. Should he take advantage of her helpless state or should he propose marriage?

...

He won't lose interest in the opposite sex untill he's at least 90.It may be purely an academic interest if he's happily married, but the subject will never bore him, even if he only speculates what it would be like to whirl each pretty girl he sees around an imaginary ball room.

...

Being unfair is, to him, a crime roughly on a level with murder. The reluctance to be cruel can push him into a mistaken proposal of marriage, predestined for the divorce courts. So you can either see his attitude is a two-edged sword, which can either slive away true love or cut him a piece of indegestible matrimony. Tossing out sentiment is the cure for both.

...

He isn't too interested in routing out your secrets. He may seem to be, at first glance, but take a second look. Often he misses what's going on two inches under his nose. Everyone will notice what's happening but him. Though he'll argue untill hell freezes over, his purpose is not to fig out personal motives, but to dwell on abstract theories so that he can reach a balanced judgement. He just wants to sort out the facts and assemble them in proper places.

...

Little snippets:

Unless there are financial affliction in his natal chart, he won't be tight with the budget.

The Libra male hates confusion, and he really needs harmony to remain stable.

The children will always benefit from his sence of fairness.

...

There are several more pages but i can't be arsed to type it all out. Does that describe you at all?

Could apply to any person alive

I dont have many solutions all i have are questions, I am cranky and I do rationalise things

Wrong I just let them go, if they cared they'd stay

Yeah I got inbred talents how did you know I dont trick anyone and I can be charming very much so but I chose now not to be. But not bad lol

Doesnt seem much to me, of course im never losing interest in same or oopposite sex

I do prefer honestly but every person does

People tell me things I never ask, and I only miss things that close when a females involved. Not sure about the latter part its just a pretty meaningless sentance lol. All my opinions are personal but logical too

True but lots of men are generous and im still liek that when Im stone broke lol

The Libra male hates confusion, and he really needs harmony to remain stable.

All people hate confusion and need harmony[/b]

The children will always benefit from his sence of fairness.
[/b]Lmao sure the girl from the school of rock video woudl benefit alright

In a very vauge way that it would apply to any person and the more detailed ones just dont seem to apply at all.

Change libra for virgo or something then post it to another person with exactly the same words and see what they think about it, when you do things like that with horrorscopes you can always see how people play into them.

[Klasnikov]

I see what you mean, i didnt think it seemed much like you while i was typing it out. But the other's i've done have all been stop on, i think you're just an oddball

Are you born by any chance around the 24th of september or the 23rd of october?

[John Crichton]

The first of october and if you want I can generalise myself.

I am a libran without any balance, i sway almost uncontrolably from one exreme to the other striving to find an almost unobatinable balance. You require the help of another perhaps an already balanced libran to calm you.

its easy to tailor things to suit a model.

[Klasnikov]

Ok you really are broken lol.

[John Crichton]

The description does work, ive been known to do some truly awesome paradoies of myself one when I was really depressed far more than what people think I am now lol. That one no longer exists as the 4later forum is dead but it was the funniest thing ever.

And yeah I am broken...
