Well, if NASA wants to arbitrarily change signs, then I can do no less. I am now an Orion!! Always my favorite constellation in terms of aesthetics, plus it heralds the arrival of my favorite season, and still lingers in the sky to greet me on my birthday, I am now the mighty hunter!
Well, they’ve got Orion the Hunter, now they can have Achmed the Head Chopper.
Far worse!
For the problem is, that I posted a bogus news report!
See #18.
Good thing I never had much invested in astrology.
“Ophiuchus,” eh?

If you’re an idiot who believes in horoscopes, then you deserve to have NASA change the signs around on you and screw with ya.
I’m sure NASA is colluding with the rest of the Obamanation to adopt the Muslim calender before obama leaves office.
Scorpio cut to one week? Looks like a class action suit is needed.
I believe that we are going to find out the impact of the wrath that Hussein has wrought and implemented in his Final Solution pardons we won’t see until the bastard is gone from our house.
They will make Bill Clinton’s pardons look like Mother Theresa’s Compassion in comparison.
Makes sense to me. There is some reason to believe that a child’s development can be influenced by the season in which he learns some of the various social skills that stay with him for the rest of his life. For instance, socializing skills may vary if you learn to interact with others while isolated during the winter time, or surrounded by others in the summer. It makes sense, then, to tie the astrological signs to current seasons, rather than skewed seasons from several millennia ago.
I’m not sure I’m buying all of post #18.
There is precession with respect to the rest of the stars out there, whether or not NASA has said so. For example, today’s North Star was not the star located at true north in times past. Approximately 5000 years ago, a not-so-bright star named Thuban was located at true north, and was the North Star of the day during the construction of the Great Pyramids.
Since I think astrology is dubious, the idea that it isn’t constant over the years is amusing, whether or not it is thoroughly debunked by Post #18.
Think of how upsetting this is to all of the older set who actually cared what their sign was!
Dang. You mean I went from the bull of the woods to a sheep? I don’t think so.
Not to worry!
This was a BS story, about BS astrology!
Nothing changed!
Pls see #18.
Space X rules! NASA drools.
well, I don’t believe in astrology, or any bs occult stuff. And if I did, I would stay even further away from them that I do.
On the other hand, I like to read about them, and I like to read fantasy. Go Figure.
But despite my feelings about astrology, I liked being a bull. Not so much with my Chinese astrology icon, though. Year of the Rat, that’s me :)
I hear ya. I’m an Aries, too.
Chinese year of the rooster.
I rather enjoy the label of ramcock.
Believe it or not my wife bought me that sign (except mine doesn’t have an arrow) for my birthday this year!
Is that a type of valve, like a petcock, stopcock, plugcock...? A threeway type?
