Imagine you are 5 years old and camping with your family. It is about ten in the afternoon, and you look up into the starry night sky and then soon you realize you are obsessed with stars, your parents say you should be an astrologer. Astrology is a study of star patterns and astrology can even predict the future!

The Greek believes started astrology and they were the first astrologers. Before the name Zodiac or Sun signs the Greek and Egyptians had many other names for them like “Circle of animals”,” Ta zodiac “,” The little animals “, and” Kyklos.” Then they started to study the patterns/the cosmic dance in the sky. The Greek assigned each constellation an animal, a time limit, and an element. Examples: Aquarius the water bearer January 20 – February 18 element is air. Leo the lion July 23 – August 22 element is Fire. In some of their cultures you could get extreme bad luck if you did not believe in the zodiac or the predictions.

The Greek and Egyptians also gave their pets zodiac signs and traits.

Cat’s zodiac signs are like ours, but most pets are categorized as Virgo because their zodiac signs do not work the same.

But you should not worry about your pet’s zodiac sign conflicting with yours because pets will not hold grudges against you because of your zodiac sign.

How did astrology get to where it is now?

So, what is astrology, well as you know twelve constellations correspond to twelve zodiac signs.

Astrology was used for fortune telling. Richard made star predictions/fortune telling, but there are other believes like astrology predicts or reveals what God planned, or astrology predicts the future. Astrology was even used to make smarter decisions. Before there used to be thirteen or more months so there should be at least one more zodiac the last zodiac is named Ophiuchus. NASA was the one who found Ophiuchus after saying astrology is fake. The zodiac is a belt where the path changes so the dates change, and according to George Lovi the zodiac dates return to normal every 26,000 years. That proves that astrology is pseudoscience.

So, people can believe and have theories of astrology but no matter what your zodiac sign is it will not change a person or a person’s behavior.

It’s 2023 now and there are some things I want to do while the snow and ice is still here. And that I like to do. Number one Sledding: I really like to sled but I haven’t done much this year. Number two Skating: I have written about skating before, but I haven’t gone skating yet this year. Number three build a Snowman: I have only made one this year and the snow hasn’t really been sticky much. Number four just going outside: Just going outside in general and playing with my siblings they love to go outside. And that’s the end of my list that I hope I can do thank you for reading.

My supper power is baby sitting. I can baby-sit dog-sit house-sit. Okay but forreal I took a baby-sitting class I haven’t done much baby-sitting but I hope to. One time I was baby-sitting our neighbors and it turned in to a sleep over because their parents were adopting a baby. [I was baby-sitting at my house] I was in charge so we played some party games like Truth or dare, Telephone, Madlibs, and then we had a dance party. Then we had hot chocolate with marshmallows. Then we watched some tv shows . The best part was my mom let me use my sleeping bag down stairs. I set up the pull out bed and they slept there. In the morning we had Breakfast and their parents took them home.

I am from eating frozen flavored dairy in a bowl,                                                                                                              from staring into a little black box                                                                                                                                            that reflex when turned off.                                                                                                                                                        I’m from little furry things on four legs                                                                                                                            named Zoey and Charly.

My favourite winter activity is skating. I started skating when I was 4 but after years of not skating, I lost my ability. When I was 11 years old, I started scouts. We went on a winter camp and because its winter we went skating. So, I put on my skates, and I can’t walk or move. Then my friend Ashlyn helps me get up and shows me how to skat. I try and try but when I finally think I got it I fall. It was getting dark I almost gave up. I try one more time and I did it I was skating I didn’t fall for a long time and that gave me the courage to keep trying. And that’s how come my favourite winter activity is skating.

My perfect winter would have fluffy snow on the ground. It wouldn’t be too cold so people would stay outside more. My perfect winter will be the day before Christmas. Christmas eve every house will be decorated perfectly. Everyone gets a present even the poor. All families will be together. When people come inside hot chocolate will be ready. And after Christmas the rest of the year will be lively. The snowmen will not melt for a week. Cookies and carrots for the reindeer will be left out. And Christmas songs will be played. Everyone will be Happy!

Something I love is Halloween! I love Halloween the costumes candy and family. I love Halloween Because on a trip to Great Wolf Lodge. Great Wolf Lodge is a hotel, and they give out candy and put up a spider made of balloons. After GWL also known as Great Wolf Lodge we go trick or treating with our cousins and my brothers and sisters. Last year for Halloween I was the queen of hearts this year I was a pirate. I love it when people give out full sized candy. My favorite Chocolate bar is Caramilk. I love making Halloween crafts like monster’s pumpkins ghosts and jack o lanterns.

My robot has a soft voice it would take care of me when I am sick. she would cook and clean. she would have brown eyes. she would drive to school if I wanted to go home or if I forgot something. she would take care of my sisters and brothers. she would help me with my homework. she would give me good advice when I needed it. She would speak French she would have beautiful brown hair. She would comfort me when I have a nightmare. She would have taken care of me when I was born. She would support my decisions. but I would have to take care of her too sometimes. Like when she is sad or when she needs a brake. And the best part is My Robot is already here She is my mom she will do anything for me, and I will do anything for her.

my parents are split so some weekends my dad would come over to my mom’s house and she would leave which is weird because he should leave but anyway my dad was here, and my sisters were outside. Luci and Rese come in and say Lija come outside okay I replied. they take me to the old tree. I asked why are we here? they said to climb on the dead tree. I know now that’s a bad idea. I start to climb up the tree. then Luci and Rese climb up as well. They start to jump on the dead tree I hear a crack! thankfully it’s not my branch that I am sitting on. then I ask if I can climb down now? snap! OWWWWW! The branch that I was sitting on broke. Luci asks me if I am okay. Yeah, yeah, I say in pain. Let’s go inside.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          I walk inside with Luci and Rese by my side. I go straight to my dad. After I show him my injury his face went like a white color .I fell out of the dead tree I explained. Well, I say this I am still screaming in my head. It hurts so bad he tries to take care of me, but he didn’t do much. [later] My mom comes home and takes care of me properly. Most of the pain is gone now. My mom said it will scar and it did but its faded.
