Guest guest Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 I was just about to congratulate John Frawley for not using Sedna when I realized that he couldn't know if he hadn't looked at the charts. That a leading English astrologer wouldn't have looked at the Bush & Kerry charts is not to be believed. Truth is he didn't want to risk his high position in being wrong.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 Hi DS, Agreed. I don't understand this dance of denial that some astrologers are wont to engage in after they miss a prediction. Why are they so afraid of being wrong I wonder? Is it all about ego that refuses any limits? Astrologers like to think of themselves as knowing more than most people since they have access to this special, hidden knowledge. That knowledge is the source of much of their self esteem. When it fails them, they feel crushed. Ego springs into action to defend the vulnerable subject, regardless of the consequences to logic. Maybe if they stop thinking they know more than other people about how the world works, they would be less likely to avoid taking their lumps. We astrologers don't know better, we know different.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 Hi Chris, On the Noel Tyl forum all the Kerry predictions that had sprung up a week before the election like mushrooms after a summer rain disappeared within two days.

Guest guest Posted November 13, 2004 Report Share Posted November 13, 2004 Chris, I don't know that he did. As you mentioned, too musch to lose -so little to gain. A cosmologist with attitude got it right in three pages but they got rid of him. Contrary post are soon disappeared.
