New Astrological Sun Signs (Zodiac) - Now Total Of 13 Sun Signs With Ophiuchus Becoming 13th
65Well well. Imagine waking up and coming to know that whatever you believed you were as per characteristic was a dream!!!!!!!!!!. How would that be?. Similar thing can be said to people all across the clock who viewed astrological predictions daily on basis of western astrology and sun signs. Virgo might have become Leo and Scorpio might have become Libra.So earthy Virgo becomes king of jungle while vibrant Libra all of sudden become earthy Virgo.
Interesting Isn't it?. It reminds me of an incident of my neighbor who believes passionately in astrology. She views astro prediction of the day early in morning. It is as important for her as are news papers for some and morning walks for some. She remains glued to the television and she does not like to talk when her astro prediction is on air. One fine day I went to her house to get phone number of plumber , she was busy viewing her favorite show . I asked her what was her sign , she replied Libra . To which I asked what is her moon sign . She then replied that why am I asking?. I said this program which you are viewing in according to moon sign and not sun sign!!!!!!!!!. She was shocked.Here eyes looked as if she just heard about world ending on that very day. Since months she was viewing programme and considered prediction for other sign as of hers and might have done what astrologer prescribed her!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ophiuchus is not new finding though.Ancient Babylonians from whom western astrologer have dervied their charts scrapped 13th sign ,2000 years ago bringing down the sun signs to 12. According to Minnesota Planetarium Society board member Parke Kunkle moon's gravitational pull has slowly moved the Earth on its axis in the last 3,000 years, creating about a one-month bump in the stars' alignment. Because of this change of tilt, the Earth is really over here in effect and the sun is in a different constellation than it was 3,000 years ago, hence the above mentioned date range changes.
Now what?. Well if you belonged to x sun sign and were extrovert , vibrant , party loving and now your zodiac sign changes to y , you would still remain extrovert , vibrant and party loving. This change has not happened yesterday night , it took 3000 years for moon to do the trick and what you believed entire life , there is no harm in continuing to believe in that .
By the way what is you new sun sign?.

What Rubbish is this...?? i still wanna be a piscean...
The zodiac has not changed. Pisean282311 is correct, the ancients knew there was a part of a 13th sign intruding into the path of the planets, but being mathematicians and lovers of order, the ancients chose to divide the sky into 12 equal sectors called the zodiac, used to this day by both NASA astronomers and astrologers, and this is the classic way and it is not changing.
Hell i loved bein a scorpion
>>>Scorpio: November 23 - November 29
why are scorpios shortchanged? did they not get to vote on the new dates?
this latest kerfluffle just shows again how ridiculous the concept of astrology is - all those people who have believed the wrong messages for years!
I find it hard to believe I am now a Leo
Astrology is a vast subject but the short answer is western astrology, what most follow in America, is not changing because American's use a tropical zodiac that is fixed to the seasons and equinoxes and not to the constellations them selves. so the sign you have always been is what you will always be.

This is so interesting, but so confusing now too. I heard it years ago but have no idea what it really means to us. Great hub.
