Pleasant thing to wake up to. Back to sleep. Nice post IAS 
The mooooost important thing I've learned since doing this bitcoin a year and a half ago is learning to think for myself
By the way, after stumbling into astrology with yours and Otoh's threads, I looked into that Somner guy and watched a podcast of his with an A.T. Mann. For some reason I couldn't resist trying out a consultation at least once, and I chose a Life Time Reading from A.T. Mann and he summed up my life impeccably well. His theory is that we live life in a logarithmic scale and be pinpoints how I was conceived (ie how my parents felt, who chose what (I was unexpected and my parents weren't close!!!), how I grew up (very feminine household ie three sisters), etc with 100% accuracy. Things that you cannot find from Facebook etc. I was truly astounded. My future looks very interesting and I am quite happy I did it.
By the way Otoh did say the stars say second half of this month should be great, and not simply in regards to bitcoin

I didn't even realize AT Mann was alive as I assumed he was from a long while ago but just checked and he is only 69. That is amazing if you got a reading from him.
We should chip in and have him look at Bitcoin using Gann and Astrology? Was he expensive?
When you get a reading from an astrologer that is good/great, it can absolutely shock you. The trick is applying it to something like BTC, where the location is not even 100% knows...
Yeah dude, I was still skeptical before. Not anymore, and that's saying a lot. I was a born skeptic, science background etc. But, as any good scientist, my curiosity was piqued and I investigated it some more
I paid $200 for life time astro reading since he was willing to give me a student discount, normally $350. This is simply my anecdotal evidence, and seeing as it confirmed that there's something peculiar about the study of astrology, it warrants even more of my consideration now.Btw, I sent in some coin to your Sommer reading because I appreciated it. I wouldn't mind seeing what Tad has to say about BTC as well, although, do you think it will be a bit redundant?
My god. You can't be serious right?
but I am. I understand that daily horoscopes are typically very generalized and vague for a reason, they by nature have to be so people will enjoy them in the papers or whatever. but this isn't about daily horoscopes you see in the papers. i later learned that it's about more than simply a sun sign written by any self-proclaimed astrologer hired by a newspaper
the long, old history of esotericism is what interested me, because I'm an avid reader and I appreciate the arts, I see a lot of esotericism influence in those things, so i just wanted to understand mythology. So then i looked into the theory of (as above, so below), thought it was a neat idea, then I had a looksee at my natal charts ( http://www.chaosastrology.net/freeastrologyreports.cfm ----try it, why not), saw that there were strict mechanics into star reading, and it was quite accurate without being overly general. Pretty good for a scripted program. So then eventually I decided to put it to a small test with a professional astrology consultation, which was exact and specific. For a reason, it blew my mind and paradigm. Y'know, I take things for what they are. It has yet to be contradictory to me. At the very least, the perspective astrology uses is a very very neat way to look at things. There are some things in this world that aren't absolute.

At the moment I am looking into astrology, which seems indispensable for a proper understanding of mythology. There are strange and wondrous things in these lands of darkness.

good for you man, that is cool that you can look at it with a skeptical mind and still have an outcome that is paradigm shifting.

look at this, a tad off subject but the point is that if there is a whole civilization and for eons we have had this thing called astrology affecting our world and we are immersed in it then if the people of ancient civilizations new something and we just pass it off as it is nothing then there might be something we are all missing. there is a lot of info about chaco canyon and the ruins there and a little investigation would interest you.
