‘Is Ophiuchus The New Sagittarius?’ No NASA Is NOT Changing Your Zodiac Sign<\/em><\/p>\n

If you’re being hit by a massive wave of d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu then know that you’re not alone.<\/p>\n

This ‘zodiac signs changing’ is very much in the same boat as the ‘the world will end in X amount of days’, where both the topics somehow get recycled every year and claim that NASA has something to do\/say about it.<\/p>\n

Since Dubai peeps have been rigorously researching this topic over the last few days, we thought of setting some facts straight about the 13th zodiac sign, and whether or not this will change\u00a0the time frame of each existing horoscope and put an end to this MADNESS once and for all.<\/p>\n

Zodiac signs are a huge part of our identities, how we understand ourselves and use our horoscopes to make sense of the seemingly nonsensical, so news of zodiac signs supposedly changing may come as a huge SHOCKER to many.<\/p>\n

For starters, ‘Ophiuchus’ is no new sign! It’s been around for ages – initially discovered by the\u00a0Ancient Greeks thousands of years ago<\/h2>\n

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, (NASA) has not ‘discovered’\u00a0Ophiuchus AKA ‘the\u00a0serpent-bearer’ fam, it’s been a part of the constellation for\u00a0millenniums now. Nor does NASA have anything to do with\u00a0astrology.<\/p>\n

According to many reports, this apparent 13th sign affects those born\u00a0between 29 November and 17 December (mainly Sagittarians), although that is nothing to worry about because Ophiuchus is a constellation and NOOOTTT a sign of the zodiac; leaving the zodiac chart as is.<\/p>\n

Poor\u00a0Ophiuchus was first left out by\u00a0Babylonians (who lived over 3,000 years ago and created the zodiac chart). Knowing there were 13\u00a0constellations, they consciously drew up the chart with only 12 zodiac signs<\/h2>\n

This was to neatly match constellations with\u00a0the 12 months in the\u00a0annual calendar. So they left behind\u00a0Ophiuchus and adapted the 12-star sign zodiac chart that we know today.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

*If* Ophiuchus was to make an entry in the zodiac sharts the new dates would look like this:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Capricorn<\/strong>: 20 January to 15 February<\/li>\n
  2. Aquarius<\/strong>: 16 February to 11 March<\/li>\n
  3. Pisces<\/strong>: 11 March to 18 April<\/li>\n
  4. Aries<\/strong>: 18 April to 13 May<\/li>\n
  5. Taurus<\/strong>: 13 May to 21 June<\/li>\n
  6. Gemini<\/strong>: 21 June to 20 July<\/li>\n
  7. Cancer<\/strong>: 20 July to 10 August<\/li>\n
  8. Leo<\/strong>: 10 August to 16 September<\/li>\n
  9. Virgo<\/strong>: 16 September to 30 October<\/li>\n
  10. Libra<\/strong>: 30 October to 23 November<\/li>\n
  11. Scorpio<\/strong>: 23 November to 29 November<\/li>\n
  12. Ophiuchus<\/strong>: 29 November to 17 December<\/li>\n
  13. Sagittarius<\/strong>: 17 December to 20 January<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    However, your zodiac sign is STILL the same fam.<\/em><\/p>\n
