Horoscopes usually regale us with glowing tales of future love, wealth, and prosperity. One artist, however, has a different interpretation of what the celestial bodies are trying to tell us, and it's a little less frilly.
Shitty Horoscopes is the brainchild of Toronto-based Amrit Brar, also known as 'Musterni.' Unfolding on Tumblr since 2015 and culminating in the recent release of a Kickstarter-funded 13-chapter book, the project turns the shortcomings and darker sides of each star sign into brief but poignant poems, accompanied by delightfully cool drawings of decorated skeletal remains. Brutally honest, yet instantly relatable, Brar's messages to horoscope signs read like a wine-induced 3 AM conversation with your best friend, which is probably why her Tumblr fans just keep demanding more and more of her creative ideas.
Scroll down, find your astrology sign, and have a laugh at the intricacies of our psyche that may or may not be influenced by the planets moving around us.

I'm a Libra. And this is true, but people usually don't care about that I loving them, like it wasn't the most precious thing they could get from me

I thought that Cancer was shy nice people? That's what it always was when I was a kid, and how I first suspected that horoscopes were b******t since I didn't fit it.

I usually don't have a big ego ... But some times , when things get out of hand , I just shy away from people , which they might consider as me being egotistic.... So maybe that's how I understand this ...
I have never figured out why the stars, billions of miles away, spend so much time aligning themselves to tell me, "you'll be in a spot of bother at work."
Well, they don't but reading horoscopes is still a great way of fighting boredom. I think that this horoscope is 100% incorrect but the one that my mother likes to watch on ORT TV is surprisingly accurate for my family.
Horoscopes aren't really Astrology. They're a very simple version of what Astrology supposedly is. I am still a non-believer, for the most part,, but I do know a professional in the area (you have to take a degree like course - they're a couple of accredited institutions). I would argue that 99% of people never had a proper consultation (it depends, but it is usually around one hour and a half) and only read their horoscopes and think that's Astrology. It's comprehensible to a certain degree, but I can't tell you that it's more complex that most people realize.
i couldn't agree with you more. the day to day runnings of a life the stars in the sky can no way effect. However the time and place you were born can say a lot about who you are or will be as a person.
