What are your feelings on the Zodiac signs changing?
First off, I don’t actually believe in astrology, or anything related to it. I just read the horoscopes for fun, ect.
However, I am kinda annoyed that all the sings have shifted thanks to the new, 13th sign, Ophiuchus.
So, all I really want to know is if anyone else is slight irked by the switch. Whenever I go to read horoscopes, I go straight to Aquarius just to take my mind off the day , ect. For me I am an Aquarius (which I am ‘proud’ of being), but am now considered a Capricorn.

I have not heard of this. Do you have a link?
Absolutely, right here.
I even checked Wikipedia (Yeah, I know, not the most reliable source) and the even changed the zodiac signs there, too. I refuse to be Capricorn! :]
As far as Im aware, this is a matter of opinion.
I really don’t care. Just more evidence of how silly and meaningless astrology really is.
Its crap.
This, not necessarily astrology. My sign profile sounds like they spied on me and got inside my head. That is, the historical and apparently old-fashioned profile not the new and inaccurate one. NOT a gemini, completely a cancer.
It actually only applies to people born after 2009, but it’s still stupid.
I’m ticked off and am staying Leo, King of the Beasts, no matter what is said!
Here is an excellent article explaining the situation. This isn’t a new discussion. It’s been around for eons.
The horoscopes you read in the newspaper and such are called sun-sign astrology. The idea is that where your sun is placed in your birth chart determines much of your outlook and personality. It’s bunk.
Really good astrologers will take a look at your full chart not just your sun. For a rudimentary look at your full birth chart go here. You need your birth date, exact birth time, and location.
If you want a more in depth analysis of your birth chart, you will need to talk to a good astrologer.
@Winters yes and people are still using me to accurately measure amounts of crack.
I dunno. While I don’t follow astrology, I’m still going to consider myself to be the same sign. Just because they’re supposed to say things about your personality and stuff. Which is pretty accurate for me. And I don’t really understand how they can change the sign you were born under and just switch the whole ‘personality’ part or whatever. Like I said, I don’t really follow astrology so I might be wrong. But yeah. I’m just gonna stay with Aries. I’m not just going to suddenly/randomly be a pisces now.

“And I don’t really understand how they can change the sign you were born under and just switch the whole ‘personality’ part or whatever.”
They can do it because it’s all bunk, and any horoscope you read will apply to you equally well.
Try this- have a friend cut out the horoscope page, or print out some horoscopes from somewhere, then remove the signs, keeping a list of which goes with which. You read the horoscopes and choose which one fits you best. What do you think the chances are that it will actually be yours?
Like I said, I don’t really follow them. I mean, most of them are just like ‘don’t let life get you down’. I don’t actually believe that a paragraph on a page is going to tell me the secrets of my future.
I have always been a Gemini, with two personalities! Now I am a Taurus, and I am wondering which personality I lost!
although my ex is a Taurus, which explains why we butted heads all the time.
Not really into astrology.
But like @hawaii_jake said, this isn’t new information.
According to these changes, I’m still a Leo. I’m no longer on the border between Leo and Virgo, though.
Might be fun if I were the ‘new’ one, Ophiuchus, aka Serpentarius. Then I’d be a snake in both Western and Chinese astrologies.
I went from a ram to a fish which is just silly. Everyone knows I’m really a pickle.
Now that I read @Vunessuh‘s answer, I have to change my thinking. I am a lot more crabby than liony.
I think it’s only supposed to affect people born from 2012 forward. But astrology is crap anyway.
I’m heading for the nearest bomb shelter. All is lost!
@Vunessuh, I so get you, there!
I simply refuse to be a fish. I’ve been a “pushy Aries bitch” my whole life, I fully plan on being a butt-head til I die.
Lol….this will suck for anyone who got their sign tattooed on them…
Ah.
My tat still makes sense. Like it always did.
I remember hearing about this Ophichius with the end of times, dooms day, 2012 conspiracy theory…It was something about the alignment…Im gonna look it up
Far less than I cared about Pluto no longer being a planet, but I definitely take some satisfaction in the fact that there are now many people with even lamer zodiac-based tattoos than before.
Astrology is total crap. Just as valid as anything anyone could make up. Like Reiki or chakras or talking snakes.
Talking snakes is crap? Damn. I so enjoyed our converations. <sigh>
Ooh, look! I found something to clear up all the confusion.
I don’t know how you pronounce my new one, but it sounds really close to “Oh fck us”
