Is astrology on the decline? January 1, 2017 4:42 pm hank

I haven’t conducted a survey or anything, but it seems to me you don’t hear too much about astrology any more. There seems to be less about it on media, on the street, and in the news. Even the paperbacks, magazines and tabloids they sell at the supermarket seem to be neglecting it. (Don’t laugh, check-out line literature is, I’m convinced, a sensitive barometer of societal trends.)

Nobody asks you “What’s your sign?” any more, although I can think of other reasons why they wouldn’t. Has it been replaced by some other nonsense, or is the world situation taking up so much of everyone’s attention that less people are following it any more?

Or could it possibly be there is so much other anomalism out there that we are approaching a saturation point? We need to get to the bottom of this, people.
