Why I Don't Buy Into Astrology

Would you choose to be lumped with Jerry Lewis, Ivana Trump, Svetlana Stalin and Alan Thicke? They, too, are Pisces.

Most days everyone's horoscope promises, “Your goodness will be appreciated”, which only leads to disappointment.

I live in Manhattan and have no reason to believe there are still stars in the sky.

Marlene Niche, who did a study of Criminal Impulses, reports Pisces showing up in charts of criminals characterized as egomaniacal, narcissistic and paranoid and frequently in the charts of rapists who were into BDS&M.
