Ophiuchus

I don't know if many of you are familiar with the 13th zodiac, but you can read it up extensively here:

In a nutshell, the zodiac system as we know it has become largely invalid because the movement of stars and planets have changed considerably since 2000 years back. Due to the constant motion of the cosmos, the Sun now spends a few days in the star constellation Ophiuchus before entering Sagittarius from Scorpius. 'Recent attempts by modern science in creating a "thirteenth" constellation of the Zodiac, the Ophiuchus, has created a great rift with modern astrologers, who if they accept it, could not justify why their charts are so out of alignment with the real world.' Ophiuchus *is* a sun sign in the Real Solar Zodiac but has never been included 'because there is something wrong with the Tropical Zodiac.' However, some people disagree with the 13th zodiac, citing a failure to distinguish between Tropical and Sidereal astrologies.

To be a virgo? libra? That's not funny. Any insight?

interesting topic. would that explain why some signs don't behave like the description.
i'd be pieces instead of aries - i'm emotional and sensitive, not brash and attention junkie as more aries🙂
my scorp would be vigo/libra cusp. mostly libra and he's behaving more like a libra then scorp. i noticed that
a while ago.

Oh god I am a libra

I concur. I'm sure *most* Scorps would kill to retain their signs. And get a lil defensive..

missy! what has become of us! librans— NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

i'll stick to trad astrology if it's all the same 🙂

LOL @ Roxy..Yep I'll stick to scorpio too if it's all the same..Theres no way I am a libra..although a lot of people do say I am rather "balanced"...eeeeeeek...but no..I do not have libra tendencies..sheesh no way!

That means bling must now be a virgo..LOL

what i dont get is, if theres indeed a thirteenth sun sign, then a real "non cusp" scorpio would be bloody rare... just two days!

doesnt add up ..
