Blogging after a long break! There were a few mildly amusing items on the news in the intermediate period. However, I did not laugh on them as much. Not until Swapnil Jawkar pointed to this report in Times of India.
What: Some astrologer cum numerologist talks about astrological effects of the transit of Venus which happened on 6th June. Some quotes from her:
Why its here: Where do I start? Does the poor Venus know that some tiny animate objects (us) on another planet happen to see it passing over the disk of the Sun? Seriously, can such people be brought to the book under article 420?
What: Some astrologer cum numerologist talks about astrological effects of the transit of Venus which happened on 6th June. Some quotes from her:
- "It has an impact as strong as any other eclipse (solar or lunar)."
- "The phenomenon may have come to end today but the effect of the Transit of Venus will remain for the next six months to come."
- "Venus is associated with beauty ..... avoid going for beauty treatments."
- "There was a solar eclipse on 20 May 2012, a lunar eclipse on 4 June 2012 and now the transit of Venus on 6 June 2012. Such frequent eclipses may indicate a natural calamity in the coming times, perhaps very heavy rainfall or earthquake."

Article 420? I would love to see it implemented!
ReplyDeleteIn the USA, 420 means smoking marihuana...
ReplyDeleteIn India, 420 is cheating people! But now to think of it, I can't imagine a educated person really believing in these things unless they are smoking marihuana. So the US penal code 420 would also do.
