    You know I glanced over the link to the article and could have sworn it was an Onion article.

    But then again The Onion has more journalistic integrity than the huffpo.

    Yeah... no. I'm a Gemini, not a Taurus, no matter what anyone says. I don't even fit the personality profile for Taurus while I fit Gemini's description with almost eery accuracy XD

    No! NO NO NO NO! NOOOOOOOO!!! There used to be only twelve different kinds of people. If you had thirteen people in a group you could always be certain that at least two of them had completely identical personalities! Now all is lost! ALL IS LOST!!

    My new sign is more atrociously wrong than the last.

    This wouldn't be retroactive guys... the whole point is that if it changed it's due to the drift of the sun/stars/planets. Our signs are based on the locations of the celestial bodies when we were born, not where they now are... So to really know your sign you'd have to figure out how these dates are calculated and the locations of stuff the year you were born and then just calculate it out.

    No one cares about stars. Zodiac signs are simplified birth dates and someone found out that people born at different times of year (winter/summer) have different attitudes.

    If you want me to believe in a 13th zodiac sign, you'll have to convince me of the merit of the 12 others first.

    Well, assuming your group is entirely heterogenous.

    The supposed peculiarity placed in the stead of the "field" of Astrology would be like throwing darts at a midget and basing your luck on whether or not its kidneys were pierced. To believe in such farcical superstition is absolute twaddle and to argue against this statement would be to start from a space of ignorance and as such could hold no water in the perspective of the rational mind. This is not even a sort of religion or philosophy, it is based out of an inherent ignorance of the cosmos.

    This s<!--coloro:color--><span style="color:color"><!--/coloro-->h<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->it isn't retroactive either, folks.

    The more you know. :drunk:

    The correct question would have been:

    Are you still one and plan on staying?

    Anyways:

    I moved from Aries to Pisces, apparently and I was just interested whether someone knew if such zodiac changes happen on a regular basis.

    I..y..what? They're not moving. They never have moved and they won't in the foreseeable future.
  • ThaldarinThaldarin Alonzi&#33; Join Date: 2003-07-15 Member: 18173Members, Constellation
    Well over time Earth and the Solar system will orientate differently to other star systems as they don't all travel one way, so yes, zodiac signs do change over time. How much time? Apparently only experts can tell you.
  • Konohas Perverted HermitKonohas Perverted Hermit Join Date: 2008-09-26 Member: 65075Members
    It took 15,000ish years for the big and little dippers to change to what they are seen as in the sky now. From what they were visible by humans all that time ago. So it only makes sense that Zodiac signs that are only 2,500ish years old based on the star constellations wouldn't have moved that much.
