New Zodiac Sign; Ophiuchus

For those of you that do not know yet, the Zodiac Symbols have changed for 2011. Astrologers have added Ophiuchus to be number 13. This addition shifts all Zodiac signs by about 1 month. So chances are your not the same as you have been your entire life.

Heres an article from ABC New's discussing the matter in much more depth...

http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/zodiac-signs-2011-zodiac-sign-wrong/story?id=12609264

Anyways, my reason for posting this is because i want your thoughts/opinions. What do you make of this whole situation?

I do not, nor did i ever, really follow horoscopes. I just knew that i was a Leo. Im going to continue to say im a Leo because i think all of this is absolute garbage. Maybe my reason for thinking this is due to the fact that i never followed it, but it just doesnt make sense.

Horoscopes tell you what kind of person you are correct? So people that follow them on a daily basic are all the sudden a different person because their zodiac sign changed?

Not in my book.

It means that if you take the zodiacs seriously where you live your life strictly to what your horoscope tells you to do, it's time to kill yourself because you've been living your life as someone else and doing all the things you were trying not to do: living outside your horoscope.

Of course we all know that the zodiac is bull doodoo to begin with. My theory is that the ass hat wanted the glory and recognition of being the guy who founded the new zodiac sign- just like the ass jacket who took Pluto away from us so they could publish new science textbooks for the schools.

The notion that celestial bodies influence our behaviour and fate from a distance of several light years does not compute. And someone who claims to be able to read the stars or signs is a fraud by definition.

In fact they discovered so many similar objects in the same region of space that they had to re-classify Pluto or add a multitude of new mini planets to the Solar System.

Exactly, like i stated above, there has always been 13 Zodiac symbols. Ophiuchus was just "overlooked". So it was just the matter of time before some astronomer made up conclusive evidence to make the 13th one official.

If the originators of the Zodiac Symbols didnt want a 13th, then there shouldnt be one! Earths axis has been rotating since the beginning.

And your absolutely write Alice, all the people that have been following their horoscope daily have now been leady a fake life...

Thankfully I've never believed in horoscopes but I think it's pretty cool that I fall under the 13th sign now because I checked up on it and apparently the sign is based on Imhotep (that Egyptian mummy) lol. :P

You and my daughter share a b-day, shangyou!

.I do think there is something to astrological signs, I just do not think humans grasp it well enough to be making changes like this.

I dont blame them.. Its literally like saying "hey change your entire lifestyle"

I think that you should remain the sign you were given when you were born. Plain and simple.

Im beginning to think no one is taking this new symbol seriously. Everyone i talk to is like F@#k that, im the same as ive always been.

A guy i work with is like "Dude im a Leo, and its not changing" then proceeds to show me his huge Leo tattoo on his ribcage.. Zodiac symbols are a common tattoo idea as people like to get things with meaning. Something that even when they are older, it will mean something. Zodiac symbols were perfect as they thought it would be the same forever.. Well clearly not if you take this change seriously.
