I read mom’s response in Ursula’s voice from the little mermaid.

For the uninitiated: You need your birth time to calculate your full astrological chart. There’s definitely a looot of crazy in the western esoteric mystery tradition (loose term for the religion-lite surrounding tarot, astrology, tea leaf reading, palmistry, etc). I should know, lol. I spent about two years learning to interpret tarot cards as a regular introspective practice. Whenever you learn one thing though, you wind up learning about the others since they all use the same spiritual model (a lot of Christian Kabbalah influence + the four element alchemy of the time, but highly syncretic with especially greco-roman mythology but also a touch of Babylonian, Zoroastrian, and new age Buddhism, and some minor Celtic or Norse influence, although the specific mix varies highly from person to person). So anyway I also wound up learning about, history, multiple religions, and symbolism of various glyphs, plants and animals, gemstones, etc. It was fascinating and has the benefit of deterring pretentious men (although that’s less important now that I’ve picked one).
