Inside almost every person who claims to be totally skeptical about horoscopes is a secret inner voice that says “But let me check mine … just in case.”
Hey, it’s a crazy, unpredictable world out there. Sometimes it’s helpful to feel like you have some semblance of perspective on the whole thing — and if that involves star signs, then you do you, fam. Haters will say astrology is fake, but you can always just write them off by saying “Ugh, typical Aquarius.”
Here are some jokes for everyone out there who holds a vague, tenuous belief in horoscopes, but feels a bit too sheepish to admit it in public. If you’ve ever secretly looked up your crush’s zodiac to check your compatibility, blamed any stress on Mercury in retrograde, or wrinkled your nose upon meeting a Gemini, then these memes are calling your name (regardless of your star sign).
Don’t worry, you’re not alone — we’re all secretly looking to blame our sh*t on glowing balls of gas in the sky.

Just once I would like my horoscope to forget about love and career and tell me to eat a donut because I deserve to instead.

Haven't read my horoscope in forever, because I assume it just says, "Sorry, you're still not Connie Britton."
