Astrology is now classified as pseudoscience yet people continue to adhere to old traditions. Many people still believe that a meticulously calculated birth chart holds all the secrets to their life. Astrology dictates that the placement of planets shape our destiny, whether it be good or bad. There is no way out of it, besides mantras, yogas, and sacrifice.

I was born on September 29, 1998. A fact so simple, yet just a couple of years ago, I would have said that this piece of information is enough for anyone to know who I am.

Greetings! I’m Neon but my close friends call me Ne. Before I get into too much detail, there are some things you should know about me. First of all, I weigh 20 amu; light, I know! I have been around for a while, for about 4.5 billion years, but no one knew of my existence because people don’t notice me; it’s so sad! Now into my life story. When a nebula helped form planet Earth, my friends and I were born. However, it took a long time, smart people and a lot of work to get us all free from…

I have chosen the Twin zodiac, Gemini, as my favorite constellation. I believe this constellation shares a remarkable resemblance to myself. Being born in this same zodiac, my interests continue to climb. As mostly known, the Gemini is known for its affiliation and power over the element of air. Astronomically the actual stars of Gemini are coincidentally named Castor and Pollux. Apparently it is rare for mythology and astronomy to agree. Gemini significantly shows a well measure of yin and…

Many people do not take their Zodiac sign seriously. They look at horoscopes on social media for fun and don’t think twice about it. I for one take mine very seriously. I know for a fact that I was born to this sign for a specific reason. I am a Scorpio all the way. Anything you read about a Scorpio will be a very clear description of me.
