The Truth
I been looking into Chinese astrology myself :ehh:
Only reason I don’t automatically bush it is because it is an ancient practice, and I do believe the humans of the past were more intelligent than us in a lot of ways.

@HarlemHottie im not entirely trying to be funny by tagging you either. I remember you cussed me out about astrology in the past, and I actually wanted to bring this to your awareness and get your opinion on him saying it.

Cheat codes of the universe.
I think he's right, Astrology is great as a personality type disaggregator.

My opinion currently? I no longer use astrology as a tool. I'm starting to question if we're meant to know these things, a begrudging testimony to its strength, yeah, but I'm conflicted. Are we meant to know the "cheat codes of the universe"? As I look at the destruction wrought by our most learned, I'm thinking no.

Astrology as a science is very real, and you all would be wise to study it. Begin with Vedic Astrology if you're looking for a starting point.

I see it like this. He's played with the teammates he named for how long? On average let's say 5 to 6 seasons. Jaylen, who is a smart guy, likely uses his high sense of awareness to understand them through a subconscious scientific method. This internal process allows him to refine his communication over time:
  1. Forming a hypothesis based on observations.
  2. Testing that hypothesis through specific communication styles.
  3. Noting how the individual responds.
  4. Forming a conclusion.
Astrology may simply provide the language to articulate what he has already learned through years of experience. If astrology were a perfect predictive tool, a person could communicate flawlessly with a total stranger without building any prior rapport. All they would need is their birth chart. IMO while astrology can be a helpful framework for some, it is often used to pre-judge others, which frequently leads to confirmation bias.
