Do u guys ever read your horoscopes, talk to psychics or whatever? And if you do, do you believe them and what they say? Also, how often do u read your horoscope? I for one read them everyday, and I have talked to these so called psychics and what not. I don't want to say that they are total scams, but i'm not sure. Some of them do have some interesting things to say...

I don't know, just tell me if u have had any experiences with psychics and or horoscopes and if they were positive or negative..

I will read my horoscope if I see one, but I by no means go out of my way to read them. I enjoy reading them, but I don't but a whole lot of faith into them.

that's what a lot of people say. But when you read it once or twice, and then you can tie you day to something that was said in the horoscope, you get addicted. They should come up with HA horoscopes ananymous

I don't believe in them. I'm a scorpio.. and I read my horoscope from last month. Whatever that suppose to happen never did happen. But I what did happen to me.. was under the pices horoscope. Psychic palm readers are a bunch of hooey. They might as well become witches.. I think they're all friends with Satan.

wow.. that was intense. I'm a pices, maybe i should read the scorpio horoscopes and they might come true for me. Did u get a new job or something? I don't know about palm readers much, but they do fall under predicting your future.... friends of satan tho', that's just harsh.

They are absolutely 100% for real. You should most definitely follow their advice.

I can't believe you even had to post a thread questioning them!

"eenie-meenie, chili-beanie, the spirits are about to speak!"


Just ask Ronnie Raygun'z wife Nancy. She governed our country via advice from her astrologer...

horoscopes are one of the oldest scams known to mankind, literally.

You make extremely vague generalities about what might happen that day. Simple probability states that
one-twelvth of all people will find that the horoscope for their sign on any particular day will most closely match how their day actual went.
One out of 144 will find this occurs on any two specific consecutive days. One out of 1728 people will find their prediction matches best for them any three specific days in a row.

In fact, if you read your horoscope 8 days in a row the odds are 50/50 that you will find at least one of your predictions most applied to you.

This scam is no different than the sports book experts who try to predict the winners of upcoming games. They often will give you one or two free predictions. What they don't tell you is that they tell half of their callers Team A is going to win, and tell the other half Team B is going to win-- that way, no matter what happens, half of their prospective clients will think they are onto something.

Did Ronnie appoint her to head up a plan to socialize health care? Or was she involved in the firing of everyone in the travel office?

I really didn't know Nancy governed anything...

if a woman cuts a man's penis off and throws it out a moving vehicle, does it count as a flying penis?

prolly the best reply i've gotten so far. thanks for it. where did u get your facts??? i also know it's super hard to predictt he future that's why they make generalizations. but do you believe that certain people have gifts that they can see in the future or communicate with the dead?
