What you are experiencing is the Forer effect.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forer_effect


I have also heard of that theory and that personality profile could certainly apply to the majority of readers.

How does it explain my behavior as a child or the fact that I clearly possess unique Gemini traits? I am consistently drawn to people Astrology says I am compatible with - How does it explain that I constantly accidently hurt my Pisces friends feelings because he takes things more seriously than me? (as astrology says we will). Or the fact that my Libra best friend compliments my personality better than any girlfriend I have ever had.

When looking at my friends relationships, they too consistently seem to end up with people they are said to be compatible with - I rarely see exceptions.

I do not base who my friends or boyfriends are on astrology or seek out people of those signs- but I am always immediately drawn (or turned off) as predicted I would be.

It is all entertainment but the consistency is hard to argue.

You've really invested in this haven't you, haha :P

Let's be clear here, there is no correlation between when you were born in relation to the position of the sun and the personality traits you possess.

Neil deGrasse Tyson debunks astrology, although it's a small clip, it's quite clear astrology isn't proven to be consistent.




But I agree, astrology is entertainment, nothing more.

I just can't believe that the month I'm born helps shape my personality. I'm sorry but there's just no science behind it.

I'm a cancer and just read that and it is nothing like me at all....hell I would say I'm as far from a cancer as you could get.

Holla. And makes much more sense than that religion stuff.

Sagittarius male. And I have a birthday book that pinpoints the sign down to the day. I've read the day's description for so many people I know, and wow.

I've dated two girls with the same birthday as mine...and lol, I just laugh when I learn their birthday, because it's going to be quite the month.

lol I actually came in here again to mention that the descriptions are usually so general that there will always be something that's spot on and something that's completely false. That, and the fact that all the descriptions could be applied to anyone. I bet if I read the Gemini Female description I'd find some things that describe me there too.

Now with the daily or monthly horoscopes you see in magazines... they aren't always that accurate, but with sunsign profiles, I am a believer.


Just throwing this out there but...maybe it's so spot on because you subconsciously want it to be?
