Astrological Signs Change

I refuse to accept this! #TeamTaurus!

So, you've spent your whole life happily smug in your star sign. You're a fish! Swimming in two directions! You're intuitive, imaginative, unworldly! And then today's Web is aflame with the news: You are not a Pisces. You are an Aquarius. Your star sign has been wrong your whole life. All along, you've been a freaking water carrier. This is not cool.

According to Parke Kunkle, a board member of the Minnesota Planetarium Society, cool or not, it's written in the stars. Star signs were created by ancient Babylonians some 2,000 years ago by tracking where the sun was in the sky each month. However, the moon's gravitational pull has slowly moved the Earth in its axis, creating about a one-month bump in the stars' alignment, reports the Minnesota Star Tribune. Now, during what we think as the month of Pisces, the sun is actually in the sign of Aries.

The new dates would therefore be:

Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16
Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11
Pisces: March 11-April 18
Aries: April 18-May 13
Taurus: May 13-June 21
Gemini: June 21-July 20
Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10
Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16
Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30
Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23
Scorpio: Nov. 23-Dec. 17
Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20

I'm a Virgo and it's going to stay that way. With the new one, I'm supposed to be a Leo. I don't even know how Leos are supposed to act. Bleh.

Not that astrological signs are that damn important lol

I'm 100% Aquarius. This puts me on the cusp of Capricorn and Aquarius (my birthday is 2/16). Hmmmm...

The only thing sillier than taking your astrological sign seriously is taking it so seriously that you would attempt to adjust it to the modern sky.

Textbook Scorpio here, which means there's no freaking way I'm going to be any other astrological sign!

I can see Leo in you.. Leos love to be the center of attention and have pretty big egos.

On the other hand, I am a Pisces through and through and I'm only off by one day now (March 10th) so that would put me on the cusp.. I'm sticking with Pisces.
