My experience is similar to yours. Raised Catholic, parents divorced & ex-communicated, tho my mom still went to church & sent me to parochial school (mostly to please HER mother) thru 5th grade, when I begged her to let me go to "regular" school. I became interested in astrology when I was 9 & my mom bought the "pocket" astrology little books at the grocery checkout for both of us on a lark. I would same my $ & buy the Dell magazines every month. Then when older began purchasing Astrology books (Jeanne Dixon, Linda Goodman, Dane Ruhyar, etc. I still consider my self an amateur, tho I did study w/a well know astrologer for a few months in the 80's b/4 she developed health issues & stopped teaching. Over the last 25 yrs while raising my kids, I've done little w/my knowledge. I've forgotten much of what I knew, but like you, I use it as a tool coupled w/my intuition.

We have a fabulous bunch here. You'll find much support & little (if no) infighting. It's a terrific reprieve from the rest of DU.

I'm a 29th degree double Scorpio (Sun & Rising), Aquarius Moon.
