I don't actually believe that there's any real science to astrology but I do have fun reading about it, especially in regards to relationships. I never really gave two shits about it until my girlfriend started sending me horoscopes everyday. I'm a Scorpio male dating an Aquarius female and to be honest after doing some reading on the signs it describes our relationship fairly well. She's a bit more easy going in the relationship, not very affectionate and free spirited but loyal and shows she loves me in her own, unique way. I'm much more upfront about how I feel and always establish that she's my girl. I'm going to tell my story and if anyone wants to tell theirs, give input into the title question or anything then feel free!
We had a strange relationship at first. We met the night before she moved 2000 miles away. I actually unknowingly stole her from a friend of mine who had been trying to get with her for months. I had met her a few times before and was attracted to her but we never really talked. She's my best friend's sister and he is extremely overprotective. Still when we started talking sparks flew; we had unreal chemistry and when we kissed things just felt right. I was hesitant to start a relationship at first because it was a drunken hook up but when I learned she was moving back to go to school I decided to take a chance. We talked all summer. We got closer than I ever thought we would; to be honest I thought she'd just ignore me the very next day. I learned about her secrets, insecurities, her past, her family, friends, dreams and she learned about mine. We never fought and had an amazing relationship at first. When she moved back we went on two amazing dates that we still talk about but I learned her father refused to sign over parental rights to her new guardians and she was forced to move back. We never actually made things official and I was curious to see if she'd still want to be involved with me.
At first when we talked she was skeptical about continuing things. She said it didn't seem logical and that being physical was something we never really had a chance at. She said she liked me a lot though and would do anything to make it work. I talked to her about visiting and she said she'd like that a lot. Things changed once she went to school though and so did she. When she started making friends she talked to me less and at the time I thought that meant she was phasing me out. She also decided it'd be best for me to not visit because with school and her mom not knowing about us it'd be too difficult to see me and she didn't want me to be alone for most of the visit. I started getting more irritable, clingy and would often get mad at her. She put up with it though, longer than I would've to be honest. I tried to stop but I had a lot of personal problems that I wasn't handling well and was taking them out on her because we used to talk about these things all the time. When I saw she was hanging out with guys as well as girls I started to get paranoid. She said she had guy friends back here too and that just because she hangs out with a guy doesn't mean she wants to fuck him. As usual I'd apologize, she'd forgive me and things would go back to normal. One night though it was really bad. I learned a guy gave her a ride home when she was drunk and I went beserk. I was drunk also and I accused her of all sorts of things, I said I'd fly out there and put the guy in the hospital, I told her she was just using me as an emotional dumping ground. She took pictures to prove she was at home and then I apologized but she said "I just don't know anymore".
Well, the next day she didn't say a word to me. Then the day after that. She was coming back here for Thanksgiving so I begged and pleaded with her for another chance as we'd been making plans for months. I said I'd quit drinking, trust her more and work on my insecurities. I meant it too because everything steamed from my fear of losing her. I became pathetic, groveled and I cringe looking back on it. Finally she snapped and told me I needed to let her go, that she didn't want to deal with me anymore and she needed to move on because our relationship didn't make sense. She cut me off from all forms of communication and I was devistated. I took a look at myself and realized I needed to change. I quit drinking, I started sleeping more, working out more, joined the Army and decided to change my life. I also got a job but had trouble with it because there was a lot of downtime and I found myself thinking about her a lot. About a month later I was just starting to accept the fact that she's gone and I would get through this she messaged me apologizing for everything and that she wanted to catch up if I wasn't too upset. At first I wanted to cuss her out and tell her to fuck off for leaving me the way she did but everything came back to me. The night we met, how close we became, the two amazing dates we had and how I loved everything about her and I talked to her. I learned she messaged me because the guy that gave her a ride home was pretending to be her friend, got really close to her, tried to fuck her and when she didn't he cut her off. I was hesitant to talk about rekindling our relationship and she was as well I learned.
We talked for a month and became close again. I started thinking it may be time to start thinking about a new romance but New Years Eve we both went to parties and we both got laid. Neither of us were thrilled when we found out but I was taking it a lot harder (or at least I think I did). I didn't chastise her or get mad at her; we weren't together and I did the exact same thing but I was still hurt. I typed up a message telling her I couldn't do this anymore and that I couldn't have her in my life because it'd be too hard to see her move on. I told her I'm not mad at her for living her life but I clearly need more time. She asked me not to cut her off, that she wanted a relationship again too but thought I wouldn't want one after what she did. We talked about what happened, we decided we missed each other terribly and that we were right for each other. She says she felt comfortable being vunerable around me and that she didn't want me out of her life because she wants to be with me even if it's 2000 miles away. We decided to start a real relationship and now we call each other girlfriend and boyfriend. It might not seem like a lot for anyone on here but for us it's a massive leap. I go to basic training in 10 days and she says she'll wait for me and write me every day. Sure I'm afraid of what will happen; I don't know what she'll think because she changes her mind a lot but one thing she's seemed sure of is that she wants me and I want her so I'll take the chance. I'm going to surprise her when I get out and if she says I shouldn't have visited I'm going to break things off because I can't be with someone who doesn't want to see me. Still I think she'll come around by then; I know her well enough to be sure of that. I know it might be risky but she's my girl, I love her and I want to marry her one day.

No as it is a con for us to worship nature and have it direct our life...
I grew up studying astrology since I was 8 or so. There is no credited science to it. Meaning no one can prove it's accuracy. But there is a science to it... just so you know. There are rules to it, and case studies. And it is one of the oldest belief systems that can be altered for many uses (self-help tools). I think anyone who has an interest in mythology can also find the appreal in astrology.
Unfortunately this is a topic many people like to hate on without knowing anything about it. So I dont want to waste my breath. You can message me if you want to hear more...
