people in China are crazy about horoscopes,
asking your horoscope is one of the first questions when meeting a new friend.
personally i think knowing and talking
about horoscopes is fun and charming. they have a phantasmal feel and are just
high level enough to maybe even be true. being in China has only bolstered my interest. so let’s talk about my horoscope, the
ever popular Libra.
typical traits: intelligent, charming
(indeed), easy going. but really they all come down to the same thing, fairness
and understanding of others. let's talk about these traits one by one!
intelligent: not in the sense that i am the most
academically smart person, but i know how to read people, i can understand them
(at least more so than the average person). through this i can understand this
person’s personality and needs, and cater to them specifically. this way i can tailor my conversation to give off an impression of intelligence. just rinse and repeat the same process with
different people, and they will all think i'm smart, albeit in a fake kind
of way.
charming: similar to how my “intelligence” works, understanding
of a person can be used to charm a person. you know what they want, you know
what they like, all you need to do is deliver. also being “fair” can be
translated into having a sense of justice, which is very charismatic in men.
easy going: this one’s got more negativity to it, Libras
are sometimes seen as being idealistic, that everyone in the world is fair. if
that were the case then every problem would be easy to solve, allowing Libras to feel like "what's the big deal". but sadly the
world is not a perfect place and some people don’t care for your problems.
anyway I forget the point of this post, or
if i even had one to begin with. i think i just wanted to talk about something
interesting and talk about myself at the same time, so there you have it.
