Not everyone who uses astrology apps is a believer in astrology. Some of you are happily agnostic about whether there is something to it or not, and for some astrology is their guilty pleasure, something they indulge in without taking it seriously.

In this video, Nadia Pavlovskaia, who specializes in working with non-believing clients, talks about how these perfectly rational people not only entertain themselves with astrology, but also actually benefit from it.

It’s also worth watching if you’re a believer, but would like to have some talking points that would make sense to your skeptical friends.

And please, share your thoughts in the comments! Are you a believer? If not, what are you doing here? Did you ever have to justify your interest in astrology in front of your hyper-rational friends?

I have been studying astrology since the 90’s. During my regular job people would ask me questions. Several were skeptical. I usually asked them what is measured during an EKG or an EEG. Energy is the answer. The universe vibrates with energy (ask any physicist). We are energy beings. Astrology doesn’t negate free will but it outlines possibilities.

I’m a skeptic but am looking for ways to increase mindfulness and positive self image, and the astrology community seemed uplifting to me. So here I am, trying to take the good and leave the unhelpful.
