Introducing my new skeptic-paleo mash-up, the Trilobites had no astrology series. Above is Wave 1 (click to enlarge), featuring "had no" Aries, Taurus, Gemini and Cancer. I plan on doing a poster and calendar once all designs are presented in the next few weeks.
The idea behind it is to make a fun conversation-starter: how could there be a trilobite version of sun signs? The constellations looked different 500 million years ago, and many of the animals astrological symbols are based on hadn't evolved yet. It's one more way of pointing out the moot pseudo-science of astrology - while sporting an awesome trilobite.
Each drawing has the astrological symbol incorporated into their design: can you spot the Roman II-like symbol in the Gemini trilobites?

Available as stickers, and a variety of colours and styles of
shirts, hoodies, and toddler clothes.
As a now-skeptic who used to fervently believe in astrology, (it's bloody tempting) I think it could be fun to sport your own astrological trilobite or slapping stickers down on your bike or workspace.
Perhaps I've lost my marbles this time. Aw, whatevs. Two more waves coming in the next few weeks!

Who needs marbles anyway...
The marbles are useful when all moving at once across an undulating surface.
