Ignore the dejected edit that I tried to make, apparently the new...crappy layout is taking it's sweet time in getting settled.
As I was saying, Cancer will always be my sign, because, quite frankly, I don't want to be the butt end of a Billy Connolly skit. I don't even know how to pronounce "Ophiuchus" let alone agree that it be part of our Zodiac, because some stupid astrologer had to go connecting stars and making up a name that is hardly worth the thought process of trying to pronounce.
Leave well enough alone! We don't want thirteen months! I like even numbers (though I was born on an odd numbered day), and having thirteen months would make me lose the will to live!
I am half Gemini and half Taurus. So if we go back to the old system, i am still half gemini and if we stay with the new one i can me taurus, But it sucks, i grown so used to being a Gemini
I was reading it, and felt really bummed that I was a Picies now when I'd been an Aries; then I read your conclusion! Brilliant, summed up what I was thinking!
This only applies to people born in 2009 and later or something... so we may be in a different sign right now, however everyone here over the age of 2 has the same signs we're all familiar with (Taurus for me, April 21st, would be Aries if I were just recently born)
I don't care about no flippen' earth axis. I'm a libra and always will be! Even though I don't check my horoscope daily, it's still always interested me and I've read countless stuff online and in books about zodiac signs since I was a little kid, and I've always been really proud of the fact that I'm a libra. I feel like it definitely suits me. I don't want to be a Virgo - I'm not one at all. I've also been thinking of getting my symbol and my best friend's symbol (she's a Cancer) tatooe'd on me. So yeah, for once: the Earth can piss off.
Although I don't think it should resort to actually divorcing people, like the woman you mentioned. That's a little extreme imo, but then again, people believe in what they believe in.
@ForeverLand: I haven't heard of it applying to those born after 2010 only; I thought it was 2009? On the other hand, there are some who say it applies to those born after 2011, but only two sources or so said that, so I didn't include it in my article.
@pulmonary archery.: Agreed! I don't actually read my horoscope daily or whatever, but I like being a Scorpio. There are a lot of debates going on about this, so it's kind of hard to know what to believe; I'm just going to stick to being a Scorpio.
On the sidereel zodiac I'm still a Taurus so it doesn't bother me, Although, I don't follow the eastern zodiac so it doesn't affect me anyway.
@pulmonary archery Yes, the new sign was around in Babylonian times, but it wasn't a sign then, it was just a constellation and didn't apply to the zodiac.
No no no. This only applies to those born AFTER 2010. The rest of us are still the same signs we have always been. And this idea has been here for at least 3 years, so it's a little late to freak out anyway.
@kallisto. I read somewhere that the 13th sign has always been there, it just wasn't included. Maybe it's just more obvious now with the change in the Earths axis... or they just decided to throw it in. XD
This annoys me, for no real reason. I don't follow horoscopes at all, but still having a star sign feels like a solid part of who I am, and I never realised it until all this came about. I am a Taurus, and that's what I'm always going to be!
I don't care what anyone says, I'm an Aquarius. No matter what.
I thought that things only changed for the people born this year. But, I guess now it's for the people born in 2009? Why does that even matter? -.- I hate that they changed it, you know? It doesn't make sense.
