That actually the position of the planet Jupiter determined something on the day of your birth and the sun's relative position with respect to it determines something about your future and your prospects in life and so forth. So when I'm not confused for a cosmetologist because of my lovely hair and makeup, I'm usually asked, oh, you're an astronomer. I'm a Virgo. So what's going to happen to me?

like, I used to be like, oh, okay, that's an astrologer, I'm not an astrologer. But now I just, I kind of lean into it. I'm like, ooh, you're gonna get a letter from the IRS next week, and that lump on your ass, that's... You mean you're playing games with them? Yeah.

There's no evidence for astrology. In fact, there's many, many random controlled trials, double-boned studies that show not only is it... It's almost counter to the evidence. Like, And they say that a monkey can throw a dart at a stock chart and get – do better than most hedge fund managers or something like that. Actually, astrologers are even worse.
