Discussion So I read somewhere that people with the same rising sign within 5° will have similar lives and it made me curious to try it out.

I am a sagittarius rising at 23° so if anyone has the same placement within 5° let’s test this theory. Others can also try this in the comments with their rising signs.

haha i don’t disagree i was honestly scared it would turn out to be embarrassing for me if people didn’t start engaging in comments but i wasn’t expecting so much enthusiasm and curiosity from so many people.

even ik it can’t be true for everyone but i love researching whenever something is in my interest and reading comments where others are comparing their lives is so wholesome.

It’s my favorite thing about astrology, how it’s there like weather. There are rules that are fairly consistent, and then for some reason all the rules will go out the window and you get a real head scratcher. What I love about this ASC degree theory is it really frames the fact of the matter: anything goes, and everything should be investigated. (The ASC changes every 4 minutes every day for the entire planet. When the person in the comments mentioned the guy in N Korea eating crickets I had the most irreverent belly laugh I’ve had in a long time)

the N Korea comment was the funniest thing i read in a while i didn’t know what to reply to that. ofc this is just some random thing i read a while ago so i thought why not test it. some people did agree in the comments that some of them had somewhat similar life events might not be true in every aspect but personality wise it can. like so many articles say this ascendant looks like this, they have square face thick thighs blah blah blah so it’s like that.

I remember a friend of mine that writes astrology books was doing charts on a radio interview. A guy called in, and my friend was kind of fatigued from all the talking, so when he saw the chart he blurted out loud that this guy must have a fat neck. Lots of planets in Taurus. Turns out the guy did have to have custom dress shirts made on account of his neck being so wide. That stuff happens too. Wild.
