Does anyone else out there have a big interest in Zodiac signs?

While I don't take them as pure truth, I think they're really fun. Sure, they're probably designed to fit anyone, but they get me thinking about people and personalities and it's a quick and easy way for me to think about people on a psychological plane. It helps me try to see things from their point of view rather than just assuming that they're just unpleasant people in general.

For example, I am a Sagittarius and my sign helps me like myself more. My sign supposedly gets along with everyone well because we're easy-going and gentle. We can be horribly stubborn and unwilling to commit though. This is a little reminder for me to take chances more often in committing myself to things and people, and to not be insistent on having my way all the time. I love my free spirit, and whenever people try to tell me that I chain myself down with my religious beliefs I am comforted by just imaging my Zodiac symbol. I think of the horse hoofs running with all their might and the wind in my hair and I feel like I know a freedom and they will never understand.

It also helps me understand people who can be hard to get along with. As a Taurus, my mom and I are total opposites and it's easy for us to hurt each other. Keeping this in mind reminds me to be sensitive to her feelings because Tauruses are much more fragile than they let on. They are strong and controlling but deep inside they're just as loving and sweet as anyone else.

My little sister, a Libra, is now a teenager and can be a handful for my mom so I sent my little sister an email telling her about her Zodiac sign and ways that she and mom can get along according to what their signs say. Libras and Tauruses actually have a lot in common, it's a matter of them having good communication or they can easily hurt each other. If my mom and sister were more open with each other then I'm pretty sure they'd get along better, perhaps even being quite close. As a Sagittarius, I still have a very hard time understanding my mom's way of thinking even though we have a much better relationship now.

So does anyone else find Zodiac signs to be useful in sorting out relationship problems (perhaps not in a serious life-altering manner but just for some psychological assistance) or just for fun? My big brother completely condemns things like this and refuses to even talk about it, and that's OK. It's just for fun for me. I agree that it can be taken too far if someone gets too passionate about it.

If you're bored you can tell me how your Zodiac sign does or does not fit you. ^^ I'd like to hear it! If you too think it's evil and should not be touched, go ahead and tell me about it. I'm easy-going. I don't love it SO much that I'm gonna defend it to the death.

I have one more final tomorrow and then I am DONE with this semester!! Glory glory Hallelujah! And next semester I get to take 3 art classes! *is totally excited!*

And I should update soon, I've been drawing a lot but not too eager to post anything since I'm just experimenting with a new technique (new for me) but maybe I'll post them later. I'm gonna be so bored with no classes that I might have nothing better to do, hahaha.
