There are 13 constellations in the sky the Sun regularly visits over a year: Capricornus, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpius, Sagittarius, and Ophiuchus. Just give us a minute while we question everything we ever knew in life. Astrologers say that during the dates of a zodiac sign the Sun is in the corresponding constellation. The Zodiac, the constellations that lie on the plane of the ecliptic through which the Sun passes in the course of a year, now has 13 constellations, not 12. The Ophiuchus' sign is a man holding a snake called a Serpentarius and those with this star sign seek peace and harmony, are impulsive, clever, poetic and inventive but can be jealous, power-hungry and temperamental.įor the rest of us, our zodiac signs have shifted to the following: Well, if you were born between 29 November and 17 December, you're officially an Ophiuchus. The orbital paths of the Moon and major planets are within the belt of the zodiac. So, what does this new zodiac sign mean for us? The zodiac is a belt-shaped region of the sky that extends approximately 8° north and south (as measured in celestial latitude) of the ecliptic, which is the apparent path of the Sun across the celestial sphere over the course of the year. 'Now, 3,000 years later, the sky has shifted because Earth's axis (North Pole) doesn't point in quite the same direction,' the NASA explanation says.
