Interesting, and a new sign added as well.

Im staying Gemini :D


New Zodiac Sign Dates: Well actually they are not all that new, the process of the Zodiac Sign Dates changing has been happening for thousands of years and will continue to do so.

Earlier today Astronomer Parke Kunkle let it be known how the Astrologers have been getting their dates wrong on the Zodiac for so long. However, I can’t help but feel he is wasting his breath. The Astrology world tends to give little notice to what Astronomers have to say. One of the most famous amateur astronomers on the planet, Sir Patrick Moore, 87, has mentioned the Zodiac alignment shift on more than one occasion on TV. In fact the first time I can remember him discussing it was over 15 years ago on his popular TV show “The Sky at Night”. If the Astrology world won’t listen to an Astronomer of his caliber, they are not likely to listen to anyone else.

So why exactly have the Zodiac Signs been changing? Well it is all to do with the Earths tilt. The Earth basically wobbles on it axis, which of course changes the alignment. When Astrology first started around 3 thousand years ago, the stars were in a different position then. The Zodiac Signs are out by around 1 month. So if you are into Astrology, here are the actual signs and dates you may wish to follow, given the current alignment;

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- Nov. 29
Ophiuchus: Nov. 29- Dec. 17
Sagittarius: Dec. 17- Jan. 20

I don't mean to be "that guy," but its not the astrologers who have changed anything, this is an astronomer telling astrologers what they should follow if they were serious about this hokum.

i wont lie, with my old sign, my horoscope came true today :rofl:

"Doubts about business and financial matters might weigh on your mind now, Libra, so much so that they invade your dreams. The dreams are only a reflection of your worries - they aren't prophetic. Your situation is probably better than it seems on the surface. Lack of information clouds the issue. Check the facts and judge them for yourself before making yourself crazy."

I totally thought i owed WCB mad cash cause i havent paid in a while and i moved and iddnt change my address with them. I phoned them and they said i didnt owe anything cause my account never even go started or some random shit :rofl:

I dunno, I kind of like the change: I've gone from being selfish and quick-tempered to being selfless and compassionate.

Yeah they just close your account if you dont pay for a while.. then you call to start it back up.. And only pay the remainder of the yr.. :rofl: They also charge interest for months and months of outstanding balance. But its peanuts.

This is so ridiculous. My astronomy prof explained this to us a year ago. This has been available information for a LONG ASS TIME.

Prof. Lovatt?

Ya, this is not new news. If I remember my astronomy/astrology correctly this has to do with the precession of the equinoxes.

I have always somewhat believed in this stuff, as whenever I read about my sign, its close to bang on what I am like as a person.

Also, as someone mentioned, this apparently only applies to people born 2009 or later. So 0-2 year olds.

Actually, because there is still no certainty regarding the length of time a precession actually takes, that's not entirely certain or necessarily true.

"One side of the argument seems to be that since Ophiuchus has only been visible on the horizon since 2009, the new Zodiac Sign dates only affects those born after 2009 "

Depends on what horoscopes you're using, I like mine to be specific:

http://www.theonion.com/articles/your-horoscopes-week-of-january-11-2011,18776/




* Aries After three exhausting weeks, you'll be embarrassed and infuriated to learn that the Marine Corps motto is not in fact "Semper Fellatio."
* Taurus God will sincerely apologize to the rest of the hemisphere this week, explaining the snowstorms were the only way to prevent you from wearing those awful sandals.
* Gemini You'll finally start to get calls about that invisible hovercraft you have for sale when the CIA declassifies thousands of previously classified ads.
* Cancer Traveling the world for five years certainly taught you things you'd never have learned otherwise, but you wish someone had told you the hot dog was on a string tied to a stick on your hat.
* Leo Birthday parties have been ruined in some strange ways over the years, but no one will ever top the sick shit you're going to pull next Thursday.
* Virgo You're not the kind of person who likes to ask for help, but for Christ's sake, that's an overturned city bus you're trapped under.
* Libra Seriously, almost everyone these days knows that the whale is a mammal and not a fish, and therefore those guys aren't sleeping with you for your brains.
* Scorpio People born under your sign are tough but fair, gruff but lovable, and faithful to a fault, but the stars refuse to take responsibility for you huffing all that paint thinner.
* Sagittarius You're certainly the kind of person no one likes to fuck with. Or make out with, hold hands with, or even hug, for that matter.
* Capricorn To his credit, the coroner will apologize to your family, but he'll be forced to admit that "Rectum? Damn thing killed him!" was appropriate considering the circumstances.
* Aquarius Love will be everywhere this week, leaving you nowhere to hide when it gets violent and ugly the way it always does.
* Pisces You're getting better at figuring out what your dreams really mean. However, all that stuff that happens when you're awake is still pretty baffling.

meh, who actually lives according to their short-term horoscopes besides stay at home moms who have time to read that stuff.
