Do you believe in horoscopes? The truth about horoscopes.

I give my head to cut off that each of us at least once in our life has not only heard about horoscopes, but no, no, but will read another astrological forecast in a newspaper or a women's magazine that has come to hand. Some have even read Linda Goodman's acclaimed Astrology with a Smile. And what is your opinion regarding such forecasts - to believe horoscopes or not?

I can safely say that such horoscopes have the same relation to real astrology as arithmetic has to higher mathematics! By the way, notice. Today, astrology has the status of a pseudoscience, it is most likely a set of beliefs that celestial bodies affect the earthly world, the character and fate of a person, determines his actions and relationships with other people.

To believe or not to horoscopes, to look for your cosmic destiny by the signs of the zodiac and the location of the Sun, or to choose a narrowed according to the map of the starry sky? You decide. You can also read the psychologist's answer to the question about the character of a person according to the sign of the zodiac.

But remember, real astrology is built on the idea of ​​the uniqueness of each person who is born on a certain day of a certain year in a certain place, at a certain hour, at a certain minute. What do we see in the newspaper? 12 zodiac signs, 12 predictions. Are all Aries or Libra really the same, living in the same conditions and drinking the same coffee every day? Of course no.

Therefore, think, think and think again whether it is worth attaching such great importance to horoscopes. Or is it worth learning for yourself only some of the fundamental points. And a little story at the end.

Do you believe in horoscopes? The truth about horoscopes.

Exactly at 8.40 he left the house. Usually he left the house 10 minutes earlier, but it just so happened today .... The day did not work out from the very beginning. The alarm clock did not ring (he never figured out why!), but the phone rang three times and all inopportunely: either they asked an unknown Sveta, then they were interested in whether it was possible to drive up and pick up the documents, then they threatened to come with an audit. In short, he did not have time to shave or take a shower. On the run, swallowing hot coffee that had not had time to cool down, he pulled on the first sweater that came across, stretched as it later turned out to be indecent, and jumped out with a burnt tongue, and he ran through puddles, through mud, almost not understanding the road. But when he finally climbed onto the platform, finally soiling his new trousers, bought last week, the doors of the train closed, and the train immediately started moving, taking with it the sleepy, but in time under the bustling passengers.

The next train was supposed to arrive in 15 minutes, and He was already late by at least half an hour. After 15 minutes he did. looking impatiently at the clock, then at the road. "What, my dear, are you looking at? Are you waiting for a lick? asked an old woman standing nearby. “So they canceled it. Two weeks after it was canceled.” He rolled his eyes to the sky in horror: my God, for what?! If the next train is canceled, then he will have to wait an hour and a half, no less!

She proudly throws her head back, while shaking her beautiful hair, showing a flexible neck. With this innocent gesture, she makes others pay attention to herself. Another common gesture is showing the wrist. He talks about sexual interest. And the easiest way is to expose your wrist and show its elegance when smoking. Many gestures have taken root perfectly in films and advertising. Who has not seen in films such a seductive woman, aristocratically, slowly dragging on in the presence of a man. And only a very strong man can resist the impulses sent by such women. Homosexuals also use these methods to make their manner more feminine and to attract partners.

But the train still arrived. The people crowded there apparently-invisibly! After 40 minutes, with difficulty squeezing to the exit, he thought about how in half an hour he would arrive at the office - unshaven, in a stretched sweater, in dirty trousers and uncleaned shoes, and how he would be able to explain his almost one and a half hour delay. “Nothing, today is Wednesday,” he reasoned. “The boss should only arrive at noon. Of course, the “well-wishers” will inform him of my late arrival, but still, I will have time to prepare for the thrashing in advance, and the boss will just have time to cool down and will not let all the dogs go on me ... But that's strange. Yesterday I read in the Komsomolskaya Pravda that today is not a day for all Aries, but a holiday! And they will be lucky in everything, from small things to big things, they even promised patronage from influential people and a significant increase in salary!

His secretary Lyudochka hooked him on horoscopes. It was she who told Him that according to the Zodiac he is Aries and gave him to read her handbook "Astrology with a smile" by Linda Goodman, which has recently become his handbook. He noted with interest all the new Aries traits: impulsiveness, straightforwardness, impatience. True, he was not lazy and conservative in Avnov's way. But the exception, as you know, only confirms the rule. Now he read the forecasts for each week and found that there were far more coincidences than discrepancies. He flew into the office two hours late. Secretary Lyudochka looked at him not only accusingly, but not without a certain amount of disgust. Going to the mirror and looking at himself from head to toe, He gasped: in addition to all of the above beauties. on his freshly bought pants, a hole gaped just below the knee, the origin of which He could only guess. " Wow! Where did I manage to do so? he thought, but Lyudochka did not let him come to his senses and quickly whispered: “Undress quickly! The chief has been on site since morning and angry as hell. I was looking for you, and I turned blue all over when I saw that you were not in the right place. Go quickly to him, but tune in to hara-kiri!

... Twenty minutes later, leaving the director's office, he struggled to comprehend everything that had happened to him. The chief yelled at him almost obscenely that he didn’t know how to do anything, didn’t know, and most importantly didn’t want to know how and know that it was his fault that two profitable deals fell through, and he not only doesn’t do a damn thing, but he is also late and scares away the rest of the clientele with his terrible appearance. But the chief said the most terrible phrase at the very end: “In general, it’s not clear who is tired of whom: either you are from work, or it is from you ... Maybe you should find yourself another job ?., go and think. In the meantime, I deprive you of the bonus, and cut your salary by exactly one and a half times! “That's astrology for you!” he thought. “Only some idiot like Lyudochka can believe in such nonsense! All! No more weekly horoscopes and no more stupid pamphlets! And in general - no astrology !!!". WAS HE RIGHT WHEN THINKING THIS?

HE WAS RIGHT AND WRONG AT THE SAME TIME!!!
