- api 3y agoThis is new?
- veave 3y agoI'm not saying it's new, but it's sorta fascinating - some young people have replaced religion with... astronomy.
- wmeredith 3y agoAstronomy is not astrology
- TillE 3y agoPurely subjective, but New Age-y stuff had a bit of a renaissance in the 90s, then fell off around 2000 - 2016ish, and now in recent years astrology in particular is back in a big way. What's new is that a lot of the recent interest in astrology among millennials / gen z is semi-ironic, but really only semi.
- vel0city 3y agoI wouldn't say its new, but in my entirely anecdotal experience I'm hearing more and more young people talk about astrology than when I was young a few decades ago. Its not new, but I'd believe we're in some kind of resurgence.
- rsynnott 3y agoNo, but if you were, say, in your 20s I could see how you might _believe_ it was; it had a bit of a dry spell. Astrology's been a perennial fad for, well, millennia, but in a modern context it shows up every couple of decades.
