Many of us read our horoscopes everyday. But now, it turns out, you may be reading the wrong sign. A shift in the sky over the millenniums altered your zodialogical sign.
The star doctors say Earth right now is in a totally different spot in relation to the sun and its equatorial alignment than it was 3,000 years ago.
That's when the 12 zodiac signs were assigned.
Those signs you were born into are now not really the same because the Earth's wobble on its axis means a nearly one-month bump in the stars alignment.
Depending on whether you are on the cusp, your sign either changed or just moved a bit.
Here is the updated list:
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. 23-29
Ophiuchus:* Nov. 29-Dec. 17
Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20
* Ophiuchus is a rarely used astrological sign, not included in most versions of the Zodiac. It is also known as Serpentarius.

lol, sorry--repost
I like yours better. Too lazy to copy and paste link. 
Lol I was really confused. I was like, "Wait,I literally JUST read this." lol
Sorry, i was all excited at the possibility of being a LEO!!! WOOOOOT!! 
For years, I thought I was a leo. Then someone told me I was a virgo. I remember being devastated, but then I knew nothing about astrology and I knew nothing about what a leo was. I think I'd be a sucky leo, but I'm cool with the leo placements I have.

never that 4 me i would die lmao.
I wish I could be like... a Sagittarius or an Aquarius for a day.
As long as I'm not an Aries, Gemini, or Pisces, I'm coo
I'm coo
lol
I'm coo
lol
I think it'd be interesting to be a Gemini. The less I dislike, the more I start to respect them. I have no air in me, so I feel like I need to take a walk in an air signs shoes.
If I HAD to choose one to be out of those 3, Gemini would be it.
So why do capricorns seem like capricorns and Aries like aries?
I question what everyone thinks about this "news".

According to this new list, that would put me as a Virgo...that explains a lot...lol. I think Im a mixture of Virgo/Libra
Yes, it would make me an Aries. Not that I'm not that far off to begin with, but oh am I Bull too, and there I shall remain. *thumbing nose at report*
My point is, by description Aries that you know in media or in your own life, or anyone else in your life that is clearly such and such a sign, would be a totally different sign according to this change.
It would mean before I got to understanding astrology that all my straightforwardness, my glee and zest for life would be contrary to what that list said I would be which would be Pisces. That just doesn't add up.
I am not trying to refute whatever this post is about flat out, I am just boggled at how the straight up Capricorns I know in my life who don't even know astrology would be considered a different sign. They are flat out Capricorns lol. Or the scorpios or virgos that are such scorpios and such virgos would be a prior sign.
Whatever, this is just bizarro, haha.

I kind of wonder this too. It's like, the signs that some people are, whether they care about astrology or not, they really embody them. And it's not like I'm creating too much of a self-fulfilling prophecy for these people considering I don't know how to treat an aries, or a gemini, or an aquarius. So it's like... what is it? lol
So, I dont' know if this was brought up yet, but apparently none of this applies unless you were born like on or after 2009 lol. Which is like... none of us.
This is vedic astrology aka Indian astrology, the astrology we use is tropical astrology they both map out the stars differently.
I can't be a Virgo: my bedroom's a mess, I'm not very frank & straight-forward, & I tend to say "who am I to criticize & judge". Then again, I can be overly analytical, be a perfectionist, & I'm always calm. If anything, picking apart & rationalizing both sides of possibly being a Virgo was more of a Libra move than anything.
Eff this!
Virgo FOR LIFE! Represent!
