It is said that your perfect nature can be found in the stars; that understanding one’s celestial self and the spirits that dwell within their ruling planets and stars would have a true knowledge of themselves, and thus be enlightened among the lowly. I never really took much stock in astrology and the star mysticism so popular among esoteric circles. I guess I always sort of didn’t see how the stars could have anything to do with us. To be truthful, I still don’t. I don’t buy astrology as a predictive source, but I certainly find it fun and sometimes eerie in its ability to match up so well with some people. Despite being rather unsold on the subject, I admit I am one of those people who’s natal chart and birthday are freakishly, disturbingly well matched to their personality. I love the stars, because I love astrophysics and interstellar sciences, so despite a lifetime of occultism, I never paid much attention to natal charts or the personal influences of cosmic entities. Since I’ve been spending more time with people who do study astrology, particularly my new friend Dev, it got me curious about what it all says about me.
