I basically seemed to be so uninterested in the guy, so detached, that I am pretty sure that I confused him. Realising this, I decided that I had a problem. I love to have fun and to joke about with friends but to the guy across the room that I truly fancy, I can appear so detach and cool all at once. One thing I have learnt is that I am so easygoing, everyone can be my friend, I may be shy at first but I love hanging out with friends and much laughter. OH MY GOD, Aquas this guy or girl that you really fancy… why are you so cold and detached with them! Raise your hands and have a giggle every time you recognise yourself, because we are funny, trust me! Aloof So here is to the side effect of being an Aquarius. Every star sign has its pros and cons Anyways, let’s enter the closely knitted gate of the Aquarius world. But hey, my fellow aqua sisters and brothers isn’t it a pain to be an Aquarius at times, on the other hand, you’ve got to love yourself for being a strongly independent and witty individual.
Knowing who you are is the key to success, I, therefore, embraced my full Aquarius personality. However, I recognise that through the horoscope and readings, I got to know myself better. Therefore, don’t base your whole life on astrology. To add to that fact, if every single reading you listen to resonates with you, then there is an issue because there are millions of people that have the same star sign as you, so not every single reading will resonate with you. It is not because your reading tells you that this relationship will be a failure that you should break up with that Scorpio guy tomorrow. Don’t rely on readings or horoscope to guide you. As a piece of advice, don’t get addicted to readings because your life is in your hands, no one can determine your future but you. I slowly but surely developed an interest in astrology and I especially got fond of three tarot readers, that I truly recommend, Ali’s tarot, Luminous Moochie and finally Secret Tarot. I previously read about a few personality traits of Aquarius people and I always agreed, but these readings sounded super accurate. So I gave it a try… To my great surprise, I felt like the tarot reader actually knew me in real life. As a born again Christian, reading the horoscope was not really my thing, until my sister started to watch videos of it and advised me that tarot really revealed some stuff about her life that truly shocked her. I can tell you that I have never truly believed in Star signs. Myself, I am an Aquarius, born February 2nd some 30 years or so ago. My little cancer peeps are also soft, loving and caring at their core and this is what I love about them, this perfectly balanced duality. If you follow Amanda Seales she is a force of nature, just like most people born under the sign of Cancer. I could go on and on about her achievements and all she created through her simple belief that laughter is the best medicine but I will stop now after mentioning that she has an awesome podcast called the “ Side Effect of… ” and the title of this piece is a nod to the funny, witty, informative and blunt podcast.
Amanda Seales is the founder of “ Smart Funny and black “, the Writer of “ Small doses ” and my beautiful Tiffany Dubois in multi grammy-nominated TV series “ Insecure ” courtesy of Issa Rae. I dedicate this article to the beautiful, hilarious, talented comedian and actress Amanda Seales.
