Time Article
Fox Article Astrology got a shake-up today when it was announced that the moon has altered the earth's tilt and changed what constellation the sun is in by almost a month. On top of that, there is debate of finally including the 13th sign of the zodiac, Ophiuchus, even though this would cut Scorpio to a six day window. I believe that this takes effect as of this year, I do not know how long it has really been off, since as you can see from the articles there is an interpretative disagreement. Here is the new list of Zodiac signs: Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16. Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11. Pisces: March 11-April 18. Aries: April 18-May 13. Taurus: May 13-June 21. Gemini: June 21-July 20. Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10. Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16. Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30. Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23. Scorpio: Nov. 23-29. Ophiuchus: Nov. 29-Dec. 17. (If included) Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20. Thoughts? |

I'm May 14th. Still a Taurus.
I used to follow this for pure fun...but...I must say, I am a Taurus, through and through. I think it'd be neat adding another sign. |

While I'm not really up on or a true believer in astrology and horoscopes, it's been interesting to note the similarities between a person and their signs.
I've always thought of myself as a Capricorn through and through, and Brandon fits as an Aquarius. Still, I suppose if there are changes in the astronomical part of it, what difference does it really make if one does not believe in it? I mean, I was born in 1985, which most consider the Year of the Ox (fitting since I'm a Cappy), but looking at when the Chinese began and ended their year in the period I was born, I actually fall in the Year of the Rat, the year previous. Long story short, I then read the characteristics for those born in that year and felt they fit too. Really no matter when you were born, someone's going to give you a list of things that you supposedly are and you're going sit there and go, "Yeah, that's totally me." |

That would make me a Capricorn then. I'm not into the whole astrology thing, but I like being an Aquarius. The most creative type of sign. | |||

I don't think that our birth signs should change, because it's the stars that you are born under that truly matter, not what flies overhead in the sky.
That, and I'm butthurt about not being a Scorpio anymore. |

Was Cancer. Now Gemini. Disappointed. Used to be able to justify my crabbiness. (Last edited by Astrophel on 01-14-11 03:29 AM) |

Lovely, I liked being a Capricorn. XD Now I'm a Sag... half man... half horse. |

The thing that I am not sure of is that some sites are saying that the change is as of this year, others are saying 2009, and others still saying that it's been this way for awhile. It is all rather confusing. | |||

Originally posted by Astrophel Same here, except maybe a bit less crabby. I definitely agree with Rogue, but I sometimes follow my horoscope just for fun. And, I have to say it, Gemini suits me well. |

The zodiac signs that Westerner's use hasn't changed. The ones that did are the sidereal zodiac, which we don't follow. Your sign is the same, unless you follow the sidereal! (Last edited by Belial on 01-15-11 08:00 PM) |

Interesting, and most illuminating. Thank you Belial.
Looks like my Sagittarius tattoo is safe. |

I looked up Libra (my old one) and it's kind of scary how some of it is pretty dead on. Still, nothing but speculation or coincidence in my eyes.
Guess I'm Virgo now, which I guess works a little too but I like Libra more. |
