    Pretty sure you’re a Taurus. Tauruses do not believe in astrology. Source: I’m also a Tauraus

      Astrology is the belief that the positions of the stars have some significance for you.

      The picture is talking about our local planets, which is even dumber.

        In the astrological sense, planets are stars, too. The relative position of the planets is important.

            Astrology dates back into antiquity long before telescopes. Stars and planets were just dots in the sky, only difference is that planets move relative to the static stars hence their name (planet means something like wanderer).

            I have heard stuff in astrology like “Mars is in the house of Taurus”. Don’t know what exactly it means but it is very important

        Yeah but, Mars is awfully bright tonight. Explain that!

        Those who are educated amongst us know this is a clear sign that Voldemort is on the rise. To each their own, though. Go ahead and just be unprepared for the Dark Lord’s reprisal.

    Well, I mean you can probably blame Earth for a lot of issues; although I suppose it’s the population and not the planet itself.

      What about Ceres, Quaoar, Makmake and Haumea? What about Sedna, Eris and gonggong? How could anyone forget about gonggong?

        Those were never labeled planets. Pluto was. Arbitrary classification changed to keep Earth’s label important. Wierdly earth centric decision.

          The classifications were always arbitrary. But if you were to change the classification back to what it was before the dwarf plant thing you’d still be including other dwarf planets.

    Who. It’s who. Nominative, not objective. Compare and contrast:

    • He, who smelt it, dealt it
    • Him, whom the letter is for, sent to it was.

    See? Easy: Only ever use “whom” when speaking like Yoda.

    “'This is the excellent foppery of the world, that,

    when we are sick in fortune, often the surfeit

    of our own behaviour, we make guilty of our

    disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars; as

    if we were villains on necessity; fools by

    heavenly compulsion; knaves, thieves, and

    treachers by spherical pre-dominance; drunkards,

    liars, and adulterers by an enforc’d obedience of

    planetary influence; and all that we are evil in,

    by a divine thrusting on. An admirable evasion

    of whore-master man, to lay his goatish

    disposition to the charge of a star! My

    father compounded with my mother under the

    Dragon’s Tail, and my nativity was under Ursa

    Major, so that it follows I am rough and

    lecherous. Fut! I should have been that I am,

    had the maidenliest star in the firmament

    twinkled on my bastardizing.”
