Are You a Sagittarian? Well, Perhaps Not - According to Sidereal astrology, there should be 13 astrological signs.

The "new" sign is Ophiuchus also known as Serpentarius. My horoscope falls within this sign. Your sign may be different as well, although it will be one of the previously recognized signs.

Apparently this has been around a while, but it ignored by most mainstream astrologists.

[No debate from me on whether or not astrology is real; I just thought it interesting.]

I refuse to accept it! I will always be a Taurus. ALWAYS.

ha! I was supposed to be a Leo anyway (I was quite late) and I am one according to those specs.

The phrase "mainstream astrologists" made me LOL.

It'd suck to be someone with a tattoo of their sign.

I also feel like I've known this for a long time. Like, since I was a kid. I grew up believing I was a Leo and was shocked to find out (around 13) that I was a Virgo (8/29). Now I can go back to being a Leo again.

And CNN says don't panic, you don't need to get that tattoo removed.
