The Zodiac Dilemma: Check your new sign.

“Everything has changed.” That, my friends, is the understatement of the year. Well to be fair every year brings changes but this year things have really taken a turn; there has been a change in our beloved ZODIAC signs!

According to NASA, the Earth has changed and it is different from what it was back when the Babylonians created the Zodiac that we knew. “Now, 3000 years later, the sky has shifted because Earth’s axis (North Pole) doesn’t point in quite the same direction,” says NASA. And there is also this fact that to make their Zodiac calendar perfect, the Babylonians had ignored a 13th constellation so NASA, to set things right, has added a new sign altogether: Ophiuchus (November 29 – December 17). All the other signs have been rearranged as well.

Here are the new dates which are assigned:

• Aries: April 18 – May 13

The Ram- Courageous, passionate, impulsive.

• Taurus: May 13 – June 21

The Bull- Reliable, devoted, stubborn.

• Gemini: June 21 – July 20
