I'm now in my early 70s, when I was in the sixth grade ,I got a job as a paper boy. If my memory serves me correctly, the papers and life magazines had there own horoscopes back then. Nothing new here. But finding it on TV would have been difficult. The channel 7 news addition of a horoscope got a through caning on Media Watch on the ABC last week. If we are all perceiving a rise in psychosis, in the world lately, it was predicted over a decade ago by a professor in that field of study. He wrote a book about waves of mental illnesses that seemed to him started in his home country of the USA. The first wave was depression, last century, followed by anorexia ( that impacted Japanese girls the most). He then predicted psychosis was next. He likened it to a form of soft diplomacy. Welcome to the Post Modern World.
