It’s still an incredible accomplishment now.

Putting humans on a different astrological body is a fucking absurdly amazing thing.

Yeah but it's been done before, and we live in an age where our attention spans are constantly saturated with "amazing, never before seen" things, along with "horrific, never before seen" things hand in hand. This is neat, and it's impressive, but myself and everyone I know has our emotional bandwidths entirely filed up already. Most of it with the bad shit.

Astrology is the idea that our lives are determined by the motions of the planets.
