Evaluate Knowledge claims -The shape of your tongue reveals your personality!
                           
  "I balance" is the key phrase for this sign, and when it comes to keeping everything on an even keel, a Libran will lead the pack. Peace loving and judicial, this sign abhors being alone. Partnerships are very important for the Libra, especially those on a personal level. With their winning personalities and cooperative style, they aren't apt to be alone for long!" ( http://my.horoscope.com/astrology/horoscope-sign-profile-libra.html). Did that description sound familiar? Well then you must have been born between Sep 23 - Oct 22! You weren't? Then you must be experiencing the "Forer effect"!

    The forer effect is the observation that everyone has to an extent similar personality traits, the forer effect is used in practices like horoscope, palm reading, tarot reading, and fortune telling. It seems likely because perhaps the trait reflects to us what we would like to be or how we see ourselves, and there are always a few key traits must aspire for like "fun loving", who doesn't like fun? That is personality trait the shape of my tongue entailed.

   This claim about the shape of your tongue revealing your personality has no scientific proof to back it up. It is just smoke and mirrors of vague descriptions and perhaps it is almost a metaphorical message about how some humans have pre programmed DNA linked personality traits that we have to control of, like the shape of our tongue.
