How many people here read their daily horoscopes? I’m not really a big fan of Astrology or studying Zodiac signs, but I can remember back in my teenage years this was something that was very popular with almost everyone I knew. “especially with women”. I admit that every now and then when reading the newspaper, I’ll turn to the daily Horoscopes and read whatever predictions that are laid out for me for that day. My Zodiac sign falls under the symbol of Sagattarious. For those of you that periodically fondle with these type of things, Whats your sign:)

Born on the fourth of July, that makes me a Cancer. Aparantly that means I like water and swimming and such… I hate swimming almost as much as I hate the ocean and generally don’t believe in The Occult, but for some reason I tend to check out my horoscope. Can’t remember it ever being right.

A girl with psycic powers said “Tbone, whats your sign.” I blinked and answered Neon. I think I blew her mind.

'nother Virgo checking in.

I haven’t read my horriblescope in years. I used to read it at night, to see how my day _should_ have went.

I myself am born on the fourth of July, making me a Cancer also. I have run into very few people with which I share the same birthday, so it’s nice meeting you, **UselessGit**.

I don’t read my horoscope due to extreme lack of interest.

I’m a Scorpio. 🙂

I was born before the stars were turned on so I consider myself a Sign O’ The Times. My mojoscope always reads “Today you will trip and fall over something.”

Why do I get the feeling that I’m getting hit on by the OPer? Uh, how YOU doin’?

Gemini. I pronounce it “JIM-i-nee” because I was born in the Space Age. 😛

Pisces here, I have never met anyone else who shared my birthday (March 1). Occasionally I read the 'scopes, but they’re so general it seems any one of them could apply to anybody (kind of like your “psychic friends” where ever they may be).

I’m a Capricorn. I haven’t read my horoscope in ages though.

Chinese Zodiac, I was born in the Year of the Dog.

Capricorn. I don’t believe in any of this nonsense. Astrologers tell me scepticism is a typical Capricorn trait …

Sagitarius, bebe! In the Chinese Zodiac I was born in the year of the rat.

I’m a Sagittarius, but rarely read my horrorscope. I’m supposed to drive like a blind gorilla and like cold pizza for breakfast, what’s not to like? Chinese zodiac - Dog.

Horoscopes are entertaining but I don’t take them seriously. I haven’t read mine in years actually but I know my zodiac sign and traits, as well as, my Chinese zodiac sign.

I was born in May (as was my daughter) so that makes me a Taurus (some of the info seems right, not all) and I was born in the Year of the Rat. My kiddo is a Taurus/Dragon. MY SO is an Aries/Dog.

I know some folks who have the knowledge to chart their stars and such but it all looks like too much work to me.

Gemini. And Gemini rising. Which pretty much makes sense, actually.
