Seems like I'm still a Taurus. Not like I care anyway, as I've never really believed in Astrology or whatever in the first place. The whole future telling because of when you were born never really striked me as even possibly accurate.
Tarot cards on the other hand... damn they can be scarily accurate.

No, no, no! The Libra description accurately suits me. What the fuck. Now I'm a Virgo!?
Woah over reacted there.

I was going to say, how do they explain all the poeple that have personalities more like their "old" sign, but that's cool. Not that I buy into it, but astrology is still kinda neat. I've read a lot of stuff on my birth sign up to a "daily" personality examination. It's scary how correct they seem to be. I'm just glad I'm still a sexy, sexy Scorpio and so is my girl ^^badgersprite said:

Is it too imposing to ask when you do learn, if you could remember me and do mine? I'm not sure where I would get that done/if it's possibly over the interwebs, but it sounds interesting.Beliyal said:

I don't care what they say. I'm a Scorpio. I've always been a Scorpio. My personality reflects the traits of Scorpio, not Libra. The change to the chart was arbitrary and sloppy, and I refuse to recognize it.

Hm, I remember hearing several years ago on a documentary on NatGeo that the whole astrologic calader was messed up, and TECHNICALLY 'True' Aries begins on April 11th (ending May 10th) and all the other signs just got shifted over by 20-21 days.
It's still all moot. And i'm still an Aries. So feh.

Western astrologers didn't forget about the rotating axis, they just choose not to follow it. They're still aware of it, though; they use it to determine astrological ages (like the Age Of Aquarius). If you want the signs to follow the axis, try Chinese astrology; the signs are in roughly the same places in the sky, but with different names, and you have to follow the moon instead of the sun to get your horoscopes.
Ah, sorry, fair enough. As I'd said, I need to look into it more before I should scoff at it.Beliyal said:
I actually had no idea there were two different systems - this intrigues me. I'm not sure how I'd managed to miss your post, considering its length; I normally try to read all the posts in the thread before I start my reply.
However, my current opinion on horoscopes and astrology does pretty much show what the general uninformed public thinks about the topic.[footnote]This statement is based off conversations I have had in the past with friends - I'm not answering for other people, here.[/footnote] Mind you, most people just scoff, I try to logic.
And, the OP did ask what I thought... so I answered. It is what I think [currently], though I know I need to research further.
I couldn't stand it, I went to Wikipedia; here you guys go:

Well since I have 'apparently' bumped up to a Pisces from an Aries I am not so happy. So does this mean I now have traits of a Pisces and not traits of an Arian anymore? That's rubbish to be honest. My personality hasn't changed just cos they've decided to add another star sign in there.
