    On occasion Regina has been known to adopt the fierce persona of a Lady Bracknell...

    The interpretation of Astrology is both a science and an art. To be properly trained in it takes many years of serious reading and practice. Silly young women who post threads in this forum, of the kind: "Someone told me once I was psychic can you tell me if I am?" or "I'm an Aries and I need to know if I will always hate Pisceans..." should be horse whipped. They are a disgrace to the ideal of intelligent femininity.

    That is all.

    I have to say i agree with you on this one. Astrology needs to be taken a lot more seriously. Its these kind of people who muddy the issue and justify the thoughts of people who say its not scientific, linked to magic and the dark ages and is only for the entertainment of gullable teenagers.

    Methinks you were maybe a bit harsh however, and that you need to remember that people like things to be simple in life. A lot of people cant handle the big picture, no matter what the issue, and so they dumb it down and make it look pretty. Maybe these people need to be gently and gradually shown that astrology has a lot more to offer...and maybe we can give the horse-whipping a miss!

    Love-Maxi.Xx

    so if u are so annoyed with silly shallow questions bein asked byg people so obviously jumpin on a bandwagon why dont you start a class to teach ppl? instead of bein annoyed with these people how about you appreciate the fact that they actually want to undertand about astrology as a science and art???

    i have a question - why is your question only geared to women and why is it a threat to femininity? in any way, the site isnt for professionals. people learn by asking questions and those questions like "im an aries and i wonder if i'll ever like pisceans.." does stem debates and comment and links to and from people who know more about astrology than the person who started the thread.
