I Believe In Astrology
Ever since a child, I remember always hearing about how important body language and facial expressions were, but I never really deemed it true until my mother warned me.
“You’re just like me,” she’d say. “Watch your facial expressions. They always say it all.”
And she was right. If there’s a gene for being incapable of hiding facial expressions, I definitely have it. Sorry, I’m just emotionally obvious.
You see, it’s in my astrological make-up to be emotionally obvious. I read my horoscope daily, and it’s been quite a while since I’ve adopted this routine. And while I wish I had started it earlier, I’m still grateful that I believe in its importance.
I’ve learned so much about my natural make-up– based on the stars and such– and it’s caused me to ably understand myself a lot more. I was born on May 8th at 9:49 p.m., which puts me right smack in the middle of the Taurus sign. I’m not on the cusp of 2 signs, I’m not a mixture, or a mut. I’m the real deal.
I’ve learned that my temper is like quiet-fire, always boiling underneath my calm exterior. I know that the people of my sign are the most loyal, intelligent, honest, practical, and hard-working people of the entire zodiac. I understand that the Taurean element is Earth, making us extremely “Earthy” individuals. Taurus’s would choose to commune with nature, rather than other individuals, which completely explains why my internal battery is charged when I’m at one with or spending time with nature. I know that Taurus’s have an eye for beauty, because their rulling planet is Venus, and most importantly, I’m aware that the Taurus’s zodiac sign is represented by a bull. In other words, we don’t wear these horns for no reason.
Not only do I know about my own astrological sign, I know plenty about the others as well. I’ve even memorized each sign in its correct order, depending on a person’s birth date. I know which signs I’m compatible with, which one’s I can most likely be friends with, which ones will be my foe’s, and more importantly, what their general personality is like. Sometimes it makes me feel lucky, and slightly psychic, but mostly, it makes me feel safe and in control.
I don’t remember what date, time, place, or person that was involved with making me so interested in astrology, but ever since, my life feels a little bit more whole. Each day, at some random point, I somehow remember that I haven’t read my daily horoscope. Some how I just never forget. It’s like I have a digital alarm clock set inside my body at a random point during each day. And the best part is, each day it’s random and unexpected, but truly an authentic, refreshing surprise, due to its consistent, pristine accuracy.
If you couldn’t tell, I truly believe in astrology. But more importantly, I believe that everyone should be aware of their own astrological make-up.
