Gemini

Your astrological sign changed? Do not worry its all fake. Well the fact that it changed is real the earth's tilt has changed a lot since ancient times but its effect on your personality has been and always will be bullshit.
Lakes that light up when you touch them are not magic its a chemical reaction inside of bacteria.
Those clouds and the sunlight breaking through throwing bars of light towards the earth, that is not heaven its water vapor and light reflecting off of it.
A pseudoscience is a group of systems, beliefs, traditions, and methodology that appears to be scientific but lacks basic scientific methodology. Most pseudoscience appears to be a relatively good explanation, but lacks plausibility, evidence, and any real way of gathering such. Pseudosciences commonly rely on not being able to be proven false, testimonials, and coincidences. Pseudosciences emerge because of coincidence. It is used to explain things that we cannot explain. The explanations are usually logical but never tested or proven(failed to be proven false repeatedly beyond doubt)and generally are abandoned when mainstream science provides a plausible and strongly supported hypothesis.
Science has basically sucked all the magic out of my life. Yet I feel as though I have gained a greater understanding of Earth and nature and its majesty. I would never trade knowing the truth for having a convenient explanation even if that explanation is more comforting or seems magical. The truths I have I find more inspiring, more moving, more thought provoking, and simply more awe inspiring. When most look at a forest they see trees, and maybe some animals. When I look at a forest I see the forest, I see a very complex interrelated system that borders on functioning like one living organism. With so many tiny minute details working in harmony. When I hear the wind I think of the atmospheric conditions that bring it about. When I see a sunrise I think how fortunate and amazing it is that the Earth is still rotating and still revolving. When I look at the stars I think of how small I am and how big and endless the universe is. And when I look at a friend I think, you are just star dust, temporary, an amazing coincidence. An amazing coincidence like me, like all people, regardless of our zodiac signs.
