I'm Aries, and so is my EII sister.
Misconceptions about such things as the moon's effect on tides have contributed to lunar mythology. Many people seem to think that since the moon affects the ocean's tides, it must be so powerful that it affects the human body as well. The lunar force is actually a very weak tidal force. A mother holding her child "will exert 12 million times as much tidal force on her child as the moon" (Kelly et al., 1996: 25). Astronomer George O. Abell claims that a mosquito would exert more gravitational pull on your arm than the moon would (Abell 1979). Despite these physical facts, there is still widespread belief that the moon can cause earthquakes.* It doesn't; nor does the sun, which exerts much less tidal force on the earth than the moon.
The fact that the human body is mostly water largely contributes to the notion that the moon should have a powerful effect on the human body and therefore an effect on behavior. It is claimed by many that the earth and the human body both are 80% water. This is false. Eighty percent of the surface of the earth is water. Furthermore, the moon only affects unbounded bodies of water, while the water in the human body is bounded.
Also, the tidal force of the moon on the earth depends on its distance from earth, not its phase. Whereas the synodic period is 29.53 days, it takes 27.5 days for the moon to move in its elliptical orbit from perigee to perigee (or apogee to apogee). Perigee (when the moon is closest to earth) "can occur at any phase of the synodic cycle" (Kelly et al. 1990: 989). Higher tides do occur at new and full moons, but not because the moon's gravitational pull is stronger at those times. Rather, the tides are higher then because "the sun, earth, and moon are in a line and the tidal force of the sun joins that of the moon at those times to produce higher tides" (ibid.: 989).The Earth is a lot bigger than you, so the Moon's gravitational pull over a very large area (in comparison to you) seems significant, when actually, it isn't.
Yes but, so must the stars, the comets... even the quazars at the edges of the known universe.
I know where you're coming from with this... but I... eh yeah communitarian thought only reaches so far. Somewhere along the line concrete phenomena must be considered.
Not all information is meant to be beheld by the id.
I'm much more inclined to believe black holes shape my destiny... but here's something to think about. Let's say someone who DOES think about such things as important is in a position of power. In that case, yes, their belief may influence the outcome of what you manage to accomplish... if you do not identify them.
Lately I've begun speculating about whether or not some people tend to get locked up in their dual functions when thinking about how to best use a given function. For example an ISTj who is completely ensconced in popular trends, or an INTj trying to understand the intellectual demands of the day. (not just the ideas intended to meet them, but the demands themselves).
(I recently finished Grandia II, which featured a character who could enter people's souls and predict the future. One intuitive clue as to the nature of the phenomenon was the fact that this character seemed to be seeping energy away from the people she was trying to help. It would be time well spent looking into other instances of "vampiric phenomena" for comparison, esepecially people who attempt to help others but only end up hurting them.)
Why are we considering the moons gravity in all seriousness? I think the only way to attach a scientific credence to astrology is to perhaps try and explain it with something we don't understand yet, like solar energies or something. I mean we could try and make something up like the particular shift of the earths rotation in regards to the sun or something.
I think you are all lunatics.
if you look at the science behind astrology (not anything to do with the popular notion of it), i think substance lies in the idea that it is, essentially, the study of what happens to products of a universe which contains many things happening at once, at different rates, in different contexts, for different reasons, etc. i think what matters is the causal relationships and the problem with this society is that few people care about them and instead just want to use astrology to confirm their delusions of making money, finding love, and that by constantly seeking temporary satiation, one can attach meaning to life.
while that hope is bullshit, there are naturally going to be points of coincidence in the study of the stars, planets, and everything in between, and studying these for what they actually are, and not for what one hopes his life would become, is nothing to squawk about. its just science.
whenever the dog and i see each other we both stop where we are. we regard each other with a mixture of sadness and suspicion and then we feign indifference.

True astrology is a complex methodology involving the natal chart. A Sun sign is trivial by comparison.Originally Posted by ;29119
Hint: maybe a first research correlation start would be to see which planets aspect the Ascendant positively. Just a speculation.
I have Black Moon Lilith trine my Ascendant, Neptune sextile Ascendant, Sun conjunct Moon both sextile Ascendant. I also have Venus conjunct MC conjunct Mercury conjunct Saturn.

Each essence is a separate glass,
Through which Sun of Being’s Light is passed,
Each tinted fragment sparkles with the Sun,
A thousand colors, but the Light is One.
