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?

EDIT: Even though it has been said multiple times, and even in another thread, I guess I get to say it here as well since no one reads past the first post.... turns out this is the Sidereal Zodiac. If you live in the "Western World" you use the Tropical Zodiac, which is unchanged.

Meh, never really cared much about the Zodiac signs, but I guess I'm a Libra now if this comes into affect
But I know some people who are crazy over the Zodiac sings, so I'm sure they'll be happy.

That's insane. My mom reads this stuff to me, and it typically lines up.

I was looking around the sites, and I saw this:

"Indeed, most horoscope readers who consider themselves Pisces are actually Aquarians. So instead of being sensitive, humane and idealistic, they actually are friendly, loyal and inventive."

http://www.startribune.com/lifestyle/style/113100139.html?elr=KArksUUUoDEy3LGDiO7aiU

Which seems more like me than Pisces, like I am.

But are our signs changing or is it just those born this year?

And, IF our signs are changing, what do you think of the inclusion of Ophiuchus? For those that don't know or did not click on the sub-article on the Time news story, Ophiuchus is the snake-handler, associated with healing.

I am Leo, and have always been Leo. My sign has never changed. However, I do not really care about Zodiac signs or believe in horoscopes.

Elara : Ooh I read about that. I really wouldn't mind having a different sign (though I do like being a Libra)...unless that sign happened to be Virgo which I am according to the sidereal zodiac. I don't want to be the virgin 8(.

Well, I am an Aquarius. And even if they include this "new" zodiac sign, I'd still be Aquarius.

Yeah, this really doesn't make much sense to me. Doesn't really matter because then and now I'm still a Virgo.

Very informative wiki page explaining the two types of zodiacs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidereal_astrology

Basically, the sidereal zodiac matches up to the constellations while the tropical zodiac matches to earth's seasons.

I also know that there are disputes in various places in the world about using which type, because like Elara said, some places use the Zodiac based on either seasons or constellations. Some places in Asia use both. Both use 12 figures, but the two different types have a different symbol.

I see that a lot of people are not bothering to read past the first post....

Different symbol, Shikamaru? You mean like for each type? Because I know the symbols for each sign are the same in both.

Anywho, for those of you following the Tropical Zodiac (which should be most of you) that do not know your sign like Septembern, here they are:

* Aries - March 21 - April 20
* Taurus - April 21 - May 21
* Gemini - May 22 - June 21
* Cancer - June 22 - July 22
* Leo - July 23 -August 21
* Virgo - August 22 - September 23
* Libra - September 24 - October 23
* Scorpio - October 24 - November 22
* Sagittarius - November 23 - December 22
* Capricorn - December 23 - January 20
* Aquarius - January 21 - February 19
* Pisces - February 20- March 20
