Why Your Favorite Stories Keep Recycling Like Bad TV—and How the Cosmic Plot Twist Could Change Everything

Added on January 14, 2026 inASTROLOGY CARDS

Ever notice how some families keep recycling the same old stories, like a broken record stuck on repeat? Meanwhile, my crew? Nah, we’re allergic to déjà vu — we’d rather skip the reruns and dive headfirst into what’s next. With Mercury doing a little cosmic dance conjunct Mars in the 9th house, maybe it’s no wonder my mind’s always zooming forward, predicting the next scene before it even unfolds. Is your brain wired to cozy up with the familiar tales, or are you a trailblazer, itching to script new stories instead? Buckle up, because what I uncovered about our storytelling habits just might flip your perspective on family lore and identity. LEARN MORE

I ran into an interesting wrinkle this week. It really opened my mind. I was thinking about people who tell the same stories, over and over, year after year. The same anecdotes.  I see this in families, but not mine. The people in my family would not be caught dead, recalling the same happening, over and over again.  What is this?

I learned, people do this because the stories are part of their identity. They are reference points in a shared reality.  This made total sense. It’s tribal. If you know this story, you were there. The telling of these stories are part of a ritual.  Also, these conversations are are low risk and comfortable for all. This seems fine, but then what’s wrong with my family?

At first I thought we were all sort Jupiter Uranus types. Traveling to the new!  We don’t want to stay in place, when we can skip ahead! We can also pattern-match. This makes it easy for us to tie the current story to the prior story and the story prior to that.  Settler vs explorer mindsets.

But then I realized it was more than that.  My families cognitive style is predictive and forward modeling.  My sister, being psychic and my getting on the phone with people and telling them what to expect.

Even this legal case. There are numerous recorded calls over the years, where I  tell this company, “You won’t get away with this forever… they day will come where you’ll be caught.” I was telling them this, twenty years ago.

Now I understand,  I can see these things due to my way natural of thinking.  Mercury conjunct Mars in the 9th. Of course my mind can compute the future.  Damned interesting!

What about you?  Settler? Or Explorer?
