This was reported in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, and could change everything! ;)
Astrology buffs beware: You may be reading the wrong horoscope. The ancient Babylonians determined a person's
zodiac sign based on the constellation the sun appeared to be in the day that person was born. However, a report
in the "Minneapolis Star-Tribune" asserts that the gravitational pull of the moon has caused the Earth to "wobble"
on its access. That means the positions of the stars in the night sky look very different than they did when the zodiac
signs were chosen three-thousand years ago. The new position has shifted each zodiac sign by about a month,
so someone who thinks they are a Pisces might actually be an Aries or Aquarius. There's even a new sign that
wasn't used by the ancient Babylonians. It's for people born between November 29th and December 17th when
the sun appears to be in the constellation Ophiucus [[ oh-fee-YOU-cuss ]].
