although i consider myself to be christian, i am very much interested in astrology and the study of its affects on us.
i belive it is a science, however according to some of our previous and current beliefs, this is a no-no.
i was wondering if anyone else has an interest in this and how much of a conflict it really is with christianity?.

after reading many experiences and comments on the board, i have begun to have questions.
questions that i really didnt know i until i read them.
as a recently df'd person, i am still struggling with whether jws are really a cult or is it just that im bitter for being torn away from the only thing that i knew, where i had friends that i thought loved me.

I remember calling my "friends" and telling that I would be df'd and saying goodbye to them. I got a wide array of reactions....from complete cut-off to hysterical crying. 1 friend still called me up to a year later. I still consider her to be my friend. Honestly, Im lost. I dont know how to feel yet. I am considering therapy, but I would need someone who understands the "life-after-jw" syndrome, because I dont know if I want or need to go back yet.

Its based on the planets, created by God
The planets have a certain order in order, since God is a god of order, it would make sense that it could be studied and predictions be made
hi there everyone, just wanted to see if any of you believe in any psychics or paranormal activity.
i know that as a jw we are taught that any ghosts are demons and any psychic activities are demonized.
would love to hear any feedback and or any pesonal experiences you have had and if you believe they are all demons, or if there is a difference between good and bad spirits.
I agree with shera on this one--alot of it intuition.
Certain people are very in tune with other people's energy.

i am divorced brother with two boys who dont live with me.
alot of sisters in the truth are interested in me but i am not really attracted to them and most bring drama.
most if not all sisters bring so much pressure that they make dating feel like i am living in a pressure cooker.
my advice: stop looking and it will come
some say life is a circle.....when one door closes another opens
when really it is a spiral cuz life never goes in reverse.
hope im not babbling, just stop putting so much pressure on yourself, and it will happen

i know that this topic will be a draw to those who are truly interested in this subject, and for those who seem to feel that it is their "duty" to debunk untruth and myth, etc.
in their sphere of life.
let it so be stated that whoever is truly interested in this subject, and in having a "chart" done, etc.
Why is astrology such a no-no when its based on something created by God and since he is a God of order, why wouldnt astrology be considered a valid subject worth some studying?

the anwser is: know one really knows but jehovah.. i have been df'd for 3 years now.
i still struggle with: "should i go back cuz i dont want to die" .
but then its not really for the "right" reason.
I thank u all very much.
There are many differing opinions, but all very supportive.
Thank u.

I have been df'd for 3 years now. I still struggle with: "should i go back cuz I dont want to die"
but then its not really for the "right" reason. I still believe the teachings are true. I just dont think I'm so awful of a person
that I would die. But according to what I was taught, dying is inevitable cuz I havent gone back yet? I live my life afraid of the
unknown. Any comments would be helpful.

i was seldom guilty because i was a "good" jw.
most of the witnesses i knew always seemed to be guilty about one thing or another....were you one of those??
?
Yes, I always felt guilty and not good enough
I would always run to the elders if I had a bad thought
It was pathetic
