Living Under a Different Sign?

Have you always felt like you were born under a bad sign?  Well, hopefully the new kid on the astronomical block just did you a favor.

Since the Earth’s axis has been changing over the past several thousand years we are somehow supposed to be governed by a different set of rules., according to astronomers. You know, those people who study celestial bodies. But astrologers, however, the people who believe that the time of your birth determines your future are not buying into it.

It would be a tremendous bother to change all those restaurant place mats and calendars they sell in head shops to have to add someone to the mix now.

So, if you feel as though you are somehow different today, look into this new guy as the possible culprit. It could be that everything you have been told about your future up to the discovery of this 13^th sign is probably bogus and we all should get a new reading to learn who we truly are.

I don’t believe in any of it but that doesn't mean it isn't real.

But it is fun to watch others get all dressed up and toss predictions around to others who believe.

I don’t mean to poke fun at you all, but you do make it easy. I mean the very fact that there are many different methods of predicting depending on the particular astrological tradition you use tells me right there that everything can change depending on who you talk to. So, how can you believe in any of it?

For those of you do believe, if you are still reading this far into this, here is where our new ‘houses’ have moved to:

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- Nov. 29

Ophiuchus: Nov. 29- Dec. 17

Sagittarius: Dec. 17- Jan. 20

Let’s see I went from being a Gemini to being a Taurus. If this movement is supposed to affect us mere mortals, how does it affect the planets themselves? According to astronomers this new guy, Ophiuchus, has always been there. He did not just suddenly appear because of how we interpret how heavenly bodies relate to each other.

Is this new positioning accurate? Was the old positioning accurate? In the future, are we going to be ‘ruled’ by some yet to be identified Greek creature?

I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t feel I have changed one bit with this new knowledge.

However, I do know that this is going to be my year. Chinese mythology says so. Let’s hear it for the year of the rabbit. Right on!
