Skywarp! Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/astr...ogy_000616.html Aries 4/19 to 5/13 Taurus 5/14 to 6/20 Gemini 6/21 to 7/20 Cancer 7/21 to 8/10 Leo 8/11 to 9/15 Virgo 9/16 to 10/30 Libra 10/31 to 11/22 Scorpio 11/23 to 11/29 Ophiuchus 11/30 to 12/17 Sagittarius 12/18 to 1/19 Capricorn 1/20 to 2/15 Aquarius 2/16 to 3/11 Pisces 3/12 to 4/18 I think I'll continue to consider myself a Pisces, even though Aquarius isn't that far off. Edit: Wow, that article is from way back in 2000.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 F' that -- I've always been an Aries. I'm ain't being no hippie Pisces...
Guest cosbywasmurdered Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 F' that -- I've always been an Aries. I'm ain't being no hippie Pisces... Amen.
Skywarp! Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Hey, Pisceans are the nicest people you'll ever meet...if you believe that sort of thing.
Guest Vitamin X Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Not only do I believe that sort of thing, but I've studied it for quite some time and have discovered a good deal of it is true. Traditional or "tropical" astrologers ignore this shift. They argue that where the vernal equinox is today is not as important as where it was. They claim that the areas of sky where the sun was over 2,000 years ago still possess the same power and virtues. Thus Leo continues to represent strength, Aries determination and so on. Another group, the sidereal astrologers, does take the shift into account, but they are largely considered mavericks by traditionalists. In other words, to represent where the new constellations are, they need to throw away 2000 years of representation and hard work at what the signs mean, their character, virtues, etc. and say "No, THIS is what you 'really' are" without giving further explanation as to what the new signs may mean or represent, or what the fuck this new Ophiuchus (from 11/30 to 12/17) means, taking the place of a lot of Sagi's I know born in this timeframe. And I'm a Virgo, so I know a thing or too about overanalyzation. (Aug. 28th)
The Czech Republic Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I ain't no Ophiuchus. Weak. I refuse to believe
Dr. Tom Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Apparently, I've gone from being an Aquarius to a Capricorn. Shrug. It's all bunk, anyway. Who cares what your "sign" is?
2GOLD Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Screw that, I'm staying a Scorpio. It's my favorite wrestler from WCW/ECW and my sign. And I'm not changing to one I can't say. Bite me.
Open the Muggy Gate Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Oh fuck them. I ain't no Cancer. I'm Leo for life.
The Amazing Rando Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Scorpio for life. Fuck that shit. I didn't get so good in bed to have that shit change on me.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Hey, Pisceans are the nicest people you'll ever meet... I know -- that's why "I'm ain't being no hippie Pisces." I'm an asshole Aries and damn proud of it...
ArkhamGlobe Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 So apparently I've gone from a Sagittarius to an Ophiuchus. I had no idea that sign even existed.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 So apparently I've gone from a Sagittarius to an Ophiuchus. I had no idea that sign even existed. It does in the subsection of astrology that list refers to. It doesn't exist with traditional astrologers.
welshjerichomark Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 Hippie Fish and proud. Aquarius my arse.
Guest Vitamin X Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 Leo is less embarrassing than Virgo. I would hate that, considering my real name is Leo. I get the "OMG SO YOU MUST BE A LEO THEN RIGHT LOLOL THAT WOULD BE FUNNIE" all too often when talking about astrology. Virgos are cooler, anyways. And contrary to what our sign represents, apparently we're also one of the more sexual ones as well, below horny Scorpios anyways.
Nighthawk Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 You know, I never cared about astrology, but my old sign (scorpio) was practically written for me. I'd be able to say to people who knew nothing about astrology "Hey, guess my sign." and they'd get it every time. This new libra is nothing like me. Scales aren't even an animal.
Jingus Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 The fact that I'm a Libra is the only thing I'm sure about... which further reinforces that I'm a Libra.
DerangedHermit Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Dammit, I was Cancer, baby! Now I'm a Gemini? WTF, I'm not a fucking American Gladiator!
Guest T®ITEC Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Oh, that makes sense, suddenly becoming an Aquarius to match my horrible personality. Suddenly there is real clarity in my life.
Guest cosbywasmurdered Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Dammit, I was Cancer, baby! Now I'm a Gemini? WTF, I'm not a fucking American Gladiator! I'll always think of you as a cancer.
Dr. Tom Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 So apparently I've gone from a Sagittarius to an Ophiuchus. I had no idea that sign even existed. It does in the subsection of astrology that list refers to. It doesn't exist with traditional astrologers. So this is actually from some rogue offshoot of "traditional" astronomy? What, regular astronomy wasn't full of enough rubbish for these folks?
