In some weird news today, it appears that thanks to the wobble of the Earth's axis we now have 13 signs of the Zodiac.  Ophiucus, AKA Serpentarius, has squeezed its way in between Scorpio and Sagittarius.  Whether this is going to be picked up by the astrological community at large or just "scientists" remains to be seen.  Check the list below to see what your new horoscope is.
 

  • Capricorn: Jan 20-Feb 16
  • Aquarius: Feb 16-Mar 11
  • Pisces: Mar 11-Apr 18
  • Aries: Apr 18-May 13
  • Taurus: May 13-June 21
  • Gemini: June 21-July 20
  • Cancer: July 20-Aug 10
  • Leo: Aug 10-Sep 16
  • Virgo: Sep 16-Oct 30
  • Libra: Oct 30-Nov 23
  • Scorpio: Nov 23-Nov 29
  • Ophiucus: Nov 29-Dec 17
  • Sagittarius: Dec 17-Jan 20
 
If you're a Scorpio I guess you're technically the rarest one out there.  It's a little silly but I'm hoping this will throw at least a temporary monkey wrench into the superstition industry.  How do you feel about your new sign?  Does it fit you more?

Astrology has always been wrong. Ophiucus has always been there, but they decided to ignore it because 12 star signs was neater. And they realized that the earth's axis changed the dates years ago. But astrologers have continued to use the wrong zodiac calendar, and they'll continue to use it now.  
 
But it's not like any of this matters, astrology is bullshit anyway.

Only there were still 12 stones, I think. Let me check. Wait, it was 13 in the game. I'm guessing that the Greeks who invented these signs collected all the stones, but forgot to turn them in because, shit, Kuja's got an ass that's begging to be kicked.

@Bruce: Yeah but this is extra weird extra pointless Zodiac nonsense, plus every time I read the word Zodiac it reminds me of Final Fantasy Tactics triggering a nostalgic endorphin high.

How could you forget something as important as the 13th stone?! The entire plot hinged on it! Okay maybe not... it was part of a side-quest or something... 
 
And Kuja was awesome, don't hate.

Who said I was hating? Kuja demanded an ass kicking, and he got it. It's not my fault that he grew feathers and became a magic monkey-bird thing.

Astronomers have known this stuff for a long time now. It's the stupid astrologers that are just now deciding to take note.

That newspaper crap, aka "you going to win the lottery on this date", is not real astrology. Before you completely dismiss something, why don't you do some damn research on it. Here is one recent study, and here is an article that references that study, as well as more on this topic.

That's fucking odd. So now my sigh is  Ophiucus and I according to the Chinese  calendar I was born in the year of the Fire Serpent and I do love snakes.
