Don't rely on what someone else said about your chart without knowing for certain they know what they're talking about. You have no idea whether or not they had a clue what they were talking about, and you shouldn't judge astrology based on the lacking awareness of it's less skilled students.
I'm actually quite interested in it. There's a lot of people that just parrot others and say it's just vague meanings and not really an indication of anything. But everyone seems to go by those horoscopes and think that's the extent of astrology. I'm very disappointed when science becomes this huge juggernaut that just wants to bulldoze everything and people start to believe in what they are told instead of finding out for themselves. Anyway, definitely not judging astrology itself, more so judging the individual presenting the chart to me.
From what I understand when the natal chart was made, everything was precise as possible, including time of birth. But as far as the person reading the chart, I couldn't know. All I know is when I heard everything she was talking about it seemed to be the polar opposite of how I felt about everything. But at the same time, I've always felt that I have this type of personality that's been distorted over the years due to the negative beliefs. So to understand who I truly am underneath it all has been quite a journey and I feel like I haven't even scraped the surface yet.
