Dear Zarathu, greybeard, kimbermoon, dr. farr, waybread, Frisiangel, Caprising (wherever he disappeared to), mdinaz, JupiterASC., miquar, Krewster, Pheonix Venus, piercetheveil, Tim Wilson, Kannon and a host of posters on this site that are either practicing astrologers, retired astrologers or so good at this craft you could be,
A loud and general THANK YOU, which I’m sure a great number of posters on this site would second.
For six months now I’ve been coming to this site. Like many posters I came initially out of a desire to know what my chart says about me. Driven here by some moment of panic… some sudden anxiety spurring me to ask an astrologer – any astrologer! – about my chart. But I stayed for the insight, the deeper delving into the language of astrology, the diversity of approaches and views, that make up thousands of threads across this board.
As a 42 year old professor who picked up astrology in my teens but then slipped away from it, I’m in the semi-awkward position of usually being the wise old advice giver but come here to read and talk to people who know a lot more about this particular subject – astrology – than I do. You’ve been nothing but generous with me, my long posts, my strange questions and my tangents on non-astrological things.
At the same time, you’ve been my teachers. Many of you have directly answered my queries and pushed me along on my little quests. All of you have opened doors in my mind and presented “ah-ha” moments in your answers to other posters. You’ve taught me directly over the six months and indirectly for years before – as I go back and scour through old posts looking for topics I’m interested in.
Whatever it is that draws you to this site, please, keep coming back, keep arguing with each other, keep offering advice and being patient with us when we are too dimwitted to see the depth of what you’re suggesting.
Your wisdom is appreciated and the rest of us are here with you… reading... learning…
