I am now an Ophiuchus, serpent bearer. It seems the stars changed like 2000 years ago and nobody has bothered to update this till now....
Does anybody know how to pronounce this sign? I can't seem to get Opie Chuncus out of my head.

Astrology! Ha! I remember when someone who was really into Astrology would try to tell me that my sign (born September 2) was really me and how important this stuff was for me. "The Description of a Virgo is really spot on for you", they would tell me. Now, I guess I must be a spot on Leo?

[big_load]

I just got shifted out of Leo. I have been feeling a little different lately, but I thought it was something else.

I woke up feeling odd this morning also. Then I realized it was that tequila I bought yesterday.. ;)

Nope, I'm still a fish!

[chumley]

In the type of broad generalization that gets people in trouble I would have guessed that the kind of people who enjoy hiking also think that astrology and horoscopes are a bunch of crap?

[joebartels]

Ophiuchus in the Planetary Zodiac:
The planet Pluto was found in Ophiuchus until the end of 2003, after which it passed into Serpens Cauda, the Serpent's Tail. The Centaur object, the minor planetoid Chiron, was visible against the stars of Ophiuchus until November 2001, after which it passed over the border into Sagittarius. Venus and Mercury can be found in Ophiuchus for a time each year.

...wait a minute, something ain't kosher in Kansas, Pluto isn't a planet!

Hum...interesting. Now a Pices, was an Aries. My wife is into all this stuff, and I don't sound like a Pices. I think I will stay an Aries.

Well heck, I was born a Sagittarius but now I guess I'm just an Old Ficus (or however it's pronounced).

[PatrickL]

Went from Cancer to Gemini. Upgrade?

Also, I heard that this only applies to those that were born in 2000-something. That true?

[fotogirl53]

I am so a Libra. Can't change that. Now they'll just give the attributes to the "new" signs.

[joebartels]

@Patrick L Google came up empty. Several results did indicated the signs were set 2000 years ago.
From Sagittarius I moved to Ophiuchus at the top of this thread to Scorpio on this one. Sounds like an identity crisis

[stacelms]

I went from Cancer to Gemini.


Thats good, Cancer=

Somehow the pickup line 'Hi, I'm a Feces' never worked for me..

[kingsnake]

When ever I tell someone I am into Astronomy they say ..what is your sign?.... I have a tshirt that says "it is As tron omy not As trol ogy.. Same with someone when I say I like paleontology they say... I found some pottery once...

[Dschur]

There was a cool article in a issue of either Sky and Telescope or Astronomy magazine about the new Jetology.. It determined your "fortune" by how many jets were taking off at the time you were born and which direction they were going and what color and where they were from... This would dictate how your life was going to be....
