Astrology is easy to dismiss as quackery, I mean come on, how can celestial objects and some zodiac signs have the slightest influence on a person's destiny?
The concept was born over 2300 years ago when the ancient Babylonians came up with the idea that the gods lived among the stars, and were able to manipulate humans' personalities to suit their wishes and whimsies. So they divided the night sky into 12 separate pieces, which we now know as the zodiac ar horoscope signs, and which, according to some polls, almost a quarter of Americans still take seriously today. And that, of course, is an excellent fuel for some horoscope memes.
But why? Well, when you read something that validates your beliefs or needs, it can be tempting to legitimize it. For most of us, it's just a little fun that can bring some positivity and confidence in our lives. There are those, however, who take it way too seriously. These zodiac memes, collected by Bored Panda, are for those who should maybe take their heads out of the sky, and come back down to Earth with a laugh!
Scroll down below to check the funny horoscopes and the best memes considering it out for yourself, and don't forget to vote for your favorites!

Don't Blame The Zodiac Signs, Susan
None Of Them Do
Planets Are To Blame
Always In A Hurry
Incredible Coincidence
Accurate Horoscopes
Wel, that is how it works. Writing a few generalizations is quite a simple task - people find statements matching them, so they believe it. "You can make difficult decisions, but sometimes you are hesitant. You love your family and friends, but sometimes you find it difficult to understand them." Blah blah blah. It suits, literally, everybody - and that is a point.

Perfect! I love how people find these old paintings and fit them so wonderfully into such epic scenarios!
Funny Zodiac Memes
For those who might wonder, this picture depicts the exact reaction former president Obama had when he went to the White House after Trump's election, also complemented by his short mental dialogue: 'Well, time to compliment my successor." *sees Trump* "You know what? F*** it, I'm out."
Something To Lean On To
Not A Good Match
I've been told that by someone else actually. My boyfriend and I had been together for just a few months at that time and a girl that knew both of us for some reason had to tell me (she changed the subject just to do that) that she knows it's not gonna last because he's a Virgo and I'm Pisces. At the time the relationship wasn't in its best shape so it actually hurt... Four years later and we seem to be doing quite well. Like...I'm not saying we might never break up but it will be our own choice/fault/action not because of our birth date.

Is any one else bothered by the fact that the title of this post says '31rd' and not '31st'? No? Just me? Okay, I'll go now
It's a brand new number! It's pronounced "thirty furd" and it only exists during the new moon (which is now).

There is nothing positive in believing b******t ever, be it positive or not. Everytime you succumb to magical thinking, you give up a bit of rationality. It is the same with reading a bit of fake news on social media every day. You know it is stupid, but it still slowly enters your mind and influences your thoughts. They only mean against this is to actively ingore it. And that can be quite exhausting at times. Horoscopes after all are a kind of ancient "clickbait".
PS: My horroscope told me that "It is a virtue to raise your voice against a nuisance."

I'm a Virgo and in german and croatian they have the same words for Virgo as for virgin so when someone asks me ... I imagine for male Virgos it's even worse, especially for male teenage Virgos
Astrology is a load of Bulls**t - let's offend PETA at the same time. Although I do wonder if aquarius and pisces are better swimmers
I am a very good swimmer. I am also and aquarius but I can not confirm if others are good at swimming. Sorry :)

Newspapers and magazine still print a horoscope every day. What were the predictions on 9-11?
Pisces in Moldova: Some country you don't give a s**t about will have a terrorist attack. Also, you'll fall in love.
Load More Replies...When you say to Astrology believers that it's a bunch of nonsense they reply: 'Your sign predicts that you'd be a skeptic.' Which I've heard them claim about people born at widely varying times of the year. When you point out how the psychological traits predicted for someone by Astrology are sometimes widely at odds w/ the personality of that person, they reply: 'Well, it's complex, other factors like their environment and culture could come into play and there's a bunch of individual variations within a sign.' How convenient, when it gets a prediction right that shows it's right. When it gets it totally wrong it's still a valid system b/c there could be other factors.
Lol this is probably the funniest bored panda title to an article I've ever seen haha
I remember working with people who fervently believed in astrology. They kept convincing other colleagues, using elaborate b******t to make their c**p convincing (if you convince an idiot that he's clever, he will actually believe that he is clever). I was a student at the time, my work focusing on planetology. Let's just say that it didn't required a lot of mental effort from my part to completely obliterate their arguments (e.g., no, planets don't emit auras that influence our behavior). But it obviously didn't work, as my foes used the usual arguments "you're just trapped in your own beliefs and won't open your mind". Such b******t. I gave up. It still depresses me to this day...
"you're just trapped in your own beliefs and won't open your mind" Oh, look who's talking... *eyeroll* (btw, it's same for politics, religion and many other topics as well)

Believe it or not, there is more to Astrology than Astrology memes.
Oh, yea . . . Astrology . . . invented at the time when the sun and 3 planets revolved around the Earth. Yea, I'm gonna trust my future to that . . .
Did anyone notice how most of these post make it seem like all the people who believe in horoscopes/astrology are women and the people telling them off are men? What the hell is up with that? There are MANY women who don't believe in that kind of stuff and MANY men who do.
When things go well it's due to your skill, amazing intelligence, and hard work. When things go south it's that damn horoscope and rotten luck.
Does astrology work for early C-section babies? I mean, does it work any less than it already doesn't work?
I don't believe in horoscopes, but I do believe that the time of year during our birth may have some minor effect on our personalities. I have noticed that most of my friends whom I consider to remind me most of myself have been born around the same time of year. Of course this varies from person to person, but maybe, just maybe.
I'm just curious. I'm a capricorn, that's all I know but what does astrology say a capricorn is like? :p (I shuffle between at least 4-5 personalities every day so I'm pretty sure something is gonna hit close :p)
