The Company You Keep

For the *VERY FIRST POST* on this particular blog of mine, I decided to consult the largest astrology website (well, maybe) the well-named Astrology.com.

Before we start into the meatiness of the post though (the horoscopes), I'd like to spell out a few things first. My focus on this blog will be the trends that occur in both my horoscopes and my loving Taurus's horoscope, the differences in those trends, and - most of all - how I can use these differences for comedic value. The idea for this blog came on August 2nd when I happened to read the Taurus our respective horoscopes from the AJC. That particular day her horoscope was "It Is difficult to climb up on a high horse when you are sinking in the mud. You may be challenged if you act like you're above it all." My horoscope was "Breeze past trouble. Look the other way if people are quarrelsome for awhile." We had to chuckle because it seemed like all of our horoscopes followed the template of her being cautioned and me being supported. And so here we are; not just because I want to chronicle these for my own enjoyment, but also because I want to share the enjoyment with others.

Exposition aside, here are the horoscopes for Virgo and Taurus courtesy of Astrology.com:

Virgo: Let others brag on your behalf today -- any self-promotion coming from your mouth is sure to be taken with a shaker of salt. That's okay, as you've got enough fans to build up your rep while you rest.

Taurus:
You may be feeling a bit too attached to someone who's not good for you -- or maybe just not as good as the competition! Sometimes loyalty pays off, but for now, you may want to consider switching teams.

Now, on the surface, I'm kind of upset that this astrologer seems to think my girlfriend should "switch teams." However, I'm just going to assume they're referring to friends she may have and let the anger go.

The Funny: While my horoscope makes sure to tell me that the friends I have are awesome and truly adore me, the Taurus's horoscope seems to be pointing her in the direction of acquiring new friends. I have plenty of fans (yes, this is true) and she's attached to people who aren't good for her.

Trends: The constant thread of me being told that what I'm doing is already fantastic and she seriously needs to consider fixing herself.


So that's it for this one, hopefully in the future I'll be able to weave stuff happening in our lives into the horoscopes we're given. No matter what, I'll be sure to make this humorous and interesting for anyone who desires to read it

  1. Nowadays, most people who think about their horoscopes have an interesting section in a modern magazine or on the internet. However, such general predictions are made by many people at the same time, and therefore they are often not accurate. This cannot but cause discontent among people and disappointment in astrology. They do not know that for an accurate forecast it is necessary to take into account not only the date, but also the time and place where the person was born. An experienced astrologer should draw up your natal chart that is as unique as your fingerprints. More information at https: //horo.io.
