6 Struggles All Girls Who Are Obsessed with Their Horoscopes Understand

1. You feel an abnormal attachment to the traits associated with your zodiac. Geminis are unpredictable! Tauruses are reliable! Sagittariuses love to travel! Libras loathe being alone! And none of that is up for debate. You feel emotionally bound to the characteristics assigned to you via your sign. 

2. You can’t shake the awareness of Mercury being in retrograde. If you’re a Gemini or a Virgo, you definitely feel us on this, because you people take it the hardest. We believe you, and we are staying the hell away from you during a few designated calendar periods. Acknowledging when Mercury is in retrograde means you will blame being chronically late on a planet, and you aren’t going to apologize for it.

3. Astronomy and astrology are not the same thing, and we don’t give a f*ck. We get it, NASA. Astrology “isn’t real.” No need to hit us over the head with it…or go ahead and hit us, repeatedly, we’ll never stop believing! Now pass us that numerology chart; we’ve got a Tarot card reading later today.

4. If his sign isn’t compatible with yours, you’re out. You’ve met your ideal man: He’s smart, funny, handsome, and just an all around great dude…then you find out his sign. He’s a Scorpio and you’re a Leo? Forget it. Nice knowing you, Dream Guy. Go find a Cancer, and may you prosper well.

5. Not everyone supports your “beliefs.” You’ve always got to make sure you’re in a safe space before you start spouting off the predictions of the stars. Not everyone is on board, and haters definitely gonna hate on astrology lovers. You wish them well but don’t need their negative energy; you’ve got a job promotion in your future this month—your horoscope said so.

6. Only certain news sources are allowed in your home. Who still reads newspapers, you ask? Those obsessed with their horoscope, that’s who. Now hand over the USA Today—the local paper always makes angsty predictions, and that random zodiac website you always check as backup reading can get a little too fantastical, even for believers. All the others are bookmarked on your computer. And your phone. Hey, it takes a village (of astrologers).
