Since When Did Zodiac Signs Change?

Courtesy of Now PublicApparently the zodiac signs have changed. I was a Leo my whole life and I prided myself on being a fierce lion. However, along with the year change, my zodiac sign changed as well. After the change I am now a cancer, a tiny little crab.

I am not the only one who is upset by the zodiac change. There were surveys around the world about how people felt about the zodiac sign change, and much of the population rejected the switch. The change of the signs was a result of the discovery of a new star, Ophiuchus. The original twelve zodiac signs that have been around for ages has been changed because the earths rotation, which has slightly shifted changing the way Earth aligns with the stars.

The change can be blamed on a Minnesota community college professor, Parke Kunkle. In a newspaper interview Parke discussed the new astrological signs. He tells reporters that the astrological change has been around for thousands of years, and that he merely brought light to information that has already been around.

The new signs go as follows:

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

Are you willing to embrace the switch?

  1. Frankly this change hasn't affected me. Zodiac signs were based on a star system from thousands of years ago…I do wonder how this system of stars would affect us now. I believe that it is great for entertainment, but I'm thinking of just not even memorizing the change.
