Your Life is a Lie: NASA Unveils New Zodiac Sign, Changes The Rest

Still a Taurus. Good thing, too, since I’m way too stubborn to change.

So did I. Does this mean I have to change my username to SpoilerLion?

This really isn’t news, is it? I heard years ago that the traditional zodiac did not actually match the sky.

Anyway now apparently I’m a Scorpio, which of course means ten different things if you read ten different explanations of what a Scorpio is supposed to be like. It’s kind of exclusive, though, as apparently this sign lasts only seven days.

I’m gonna see this as a glass half full moment. No longer will I be viewed as an uptight, detail-oriented perfectionist Virgo, but rather a charismatic leader type - a Leo!

My birthday is on an in-between date. Which one am I?!

Like THAT is an obstacle to changing these things.

Dang you’re stubborn. Lemme guess, you’re a
–oh, wait, never mind, you’re not.

Yep, thanks to global precession, the current zodiac calendar is off by more than a month.

So I guess Ophiuchus is a type of “leap sign”.

Still the same, which everybody said fit me just perfectly, proving once more it’s just nonsense.

So the new zodiac sign is called “Ophiuchus?” Am I the only one who reads that as “Oh, fuck us?”

Seems appropriate for some, but not me. I’m still a fish. Woohoo!

I liked being a lion. I don’t like being a cancerous crab.

why not? I’m changing mine to Doctor Lionwhocopulates20to40times perday. Full of pride, indeed!

Hey don’t knock the Crab - it’s got the most fun shorthand symbol (a sideways 69).

Well sure, but y’know, it’s for like under a minute at a time.

Hadn’t heard about the thirteenth zodiac, but I believe that I have read that there’s been enough drift in the cosmos that whatever calculations are used to determine which sign goes to which date is horribly adrift and hasn’t been updated. They’ve just kept the same general place on the lunar calendar since the Greek ages.

(No idea if this is true.)

That site says I’m a Taurus, but my evil twin says I’m still a Gemini. Hmm…

I’m still a Leo, but just barely. It now starts on my birthday.

The First Point of Ares is actually in Pisces, someday it will be in Aquarius … so grow your hair will ya?

I’m now a cusper between Aries and Taurus.

Well, I’m a Capricorn now. :slight_smile:

True story: When I was a kid I thought sincerely that I was a Pisces, so I did check the horoscope there, naive as I was I thought that the horoscopes did match a lot with my life. Of course they all did as I checked many past magazines when I looked carefully after I found that I was an Aquarius (Before this new bit of info came out).

Seeing how deceptive astrology was, it was one of the first things that set me on the path of skepticism and agnosticism since my early teens.

That’s three of us.

Hey, FairyChatMom, GIGObuster and I suddenly went from human beings to goats. At least crabs are kinda badass.
