Is astrology effective in a person and is it 100% true?

You claim that there is scientific evidence for Emotos water theories. But there ain't

Yes, that's what i initially stated, but i guess i was mistaken (and so will many, many others too). I'm normally very hard to "get past", scam-wise. Eg i've been victim to a couple of russian-women email relationship scams; i was open-minded, benefit-of-doubt at first, whilst remaining "carefully sceptical", and over the months i gradually "sussed-them-out", and then "called-them-out" on it eventually).
His sites certainly do a good job of making it all seem "scientific".

The number of people believing something is no proof that it is true. There has been a time when billions of people considered the earth to be flat, or that diseases were the result of curses, or that the solar eclipse meant "doom". None of that is true, no matter how many people believe it. There is no evidence that this "life force" exists

That is true, but there's also no evidence that it doesn't exist. And if you compare the likelihood or probability that "life force" exists, to whether this "life force" can be contained & distributed via emoto's special crystal water ... well i think it's safe to say that the former has a slightly higher chance of being true .. not that it is of course. Agreed?

That he is a scientist doesn't mean that everything he claims is true, unless he got scientific evidence, which he doesn't

Who know, maybe he isn't really a true scientist :question:, but he is saying he is, and giving out false "scientific evidence", to try to "shift" his work from the new-age/alternative into the conventional, which would mean much more $$$ if he managed that.

When you believe his stuff to be true: why not? Everyone needs a hobby.
When you spend your money on his stuff: your money. It's a pity, because it could have been used for better stuff, but if it makes you happy: why not. Though you are also supporting someone who rips off others, and that is quite questional.
When you convince others that his stuff is true, then you waste their money and support him. Which is more than questionable

I couldn't agree more :thumbup:

About astrology being true or not, i have to say i am biased. This is due to my sign being BANG ON, on almost every aspect. this has always been the case. Of course, some astrology readings do not seem very accurate at all, and some are of course just plain silly.
It seems the most accurate stuff (for myself) is the sun sign definition itself, more than the daily/weekly/etc forecasts. Also i have found the "birth chart" to be pretty accurate.

There are also other systems, which incorporate astrology with other things (like nameology, DNA-soul-blueprint, etc). I have found them to be the most thorough, in-depth, and accurate (moreso than just the standard astrology system).
