I came here for alternative healing and ended up getting interested in astrology, at least a little bit.

Apparently early on a bunch of astrologers kind of left this group in a huff because they were lumped together with a bunch of "unscientific" stuff.

Some here might know the history of that.

I have to say that the eclectic nature of this group makes it a bit interesting. And a few of us (me included) may try to start a conversation on something and get a kind of deafening silence in response.

Maybe there hasn't been much discussion of alt health lately, tanyev Dec 2011 #7

Flower essences and Reiki are still a little "out there" for Remember Me Dec 2011 #13

I see no reason why it can't be discussed in both places. Lucinda Dec 2011 #9
