And the men who enable them by pretending to be into it just for sex are just as bad

    The reason women “fall into” shit like astrology and witch stuff is because it’s marketed to them, not because of some sexist bs reasons. Well I guess the marketing is sexist

    Try to be nice and tolerant plz. Most people under that umbrella are relatively harmless & their ‘religion’ is pretty accepting & permitting so that’s cool.

    but I’d be lying if i said it didn’t piss me off when people inject astrology into conversation & try to interrogate your sign all the time. like that’s literally evangelizing, don’t frickin preach to me, whatever your beliefs, or i will resent. also fuck being sexist, men can also actually get into it, it’s not a ploy to get laid

    We have subs for all three Abrahamic religions and don’t really tolerate people mocking their fictional sky god or their “prophets.” If other people want to believe in a moon goddess or earth spirits fucking let them, as long as they’re not being preachy about it (which I haven’t seen a single instance of on this site) fuck off and leave them alone. And yes, I’m not a wiccan but, I am pagan and I am fucking tired of our beliefs being less valid then others just because less people believe in them.

    The reason I like tarot and to a lesser extent astrology is not because I think it is real, but rather it provides a sort of general framework of metaphor that can make you think introspectively.
