Ophiuchus

Astrology's got a new sign!  No doubt you've all probably heard about this, since it's caused a major outbreak of rage and identity loss.

Ophiuchus, also called Serpentarius, was introduced as the thirteenth zodiac sign, making those born in the end of November to early December followers of the new sign that astrologers say was caused by changes in earth's alignment.  Many of the dates depicting the seperation of signs have changed, so you may be the previous sign to what you used to be. Check this out for more information.

Now, according to the new astrological order, I am no longer a fierce Aries, but a calm Pisces.

Though I do not plan my days according to what my horoscope tells me, I still feel an affiliation to my warring Ram buddies.  The thought of all of a sudden becoming someone else made me question my identity and what made me, me.  What described an Aries described me as well - there's no way that I could be a Pieces.  When I first heard about this new addition to the so-called "Zodiac family," I was shocked that astrologers could miss such an important thing, and horrified that I may not actually be an Aries.  Being an Aries was like a part of me, a part of my identity, even though I was not one of those people who wouldn't go out on days their horoscope said not to.

Imagine what a relief it was to discover that our western astorology has not changed in the slightest.
