Zodiac Signs Have Changed And Everyone Had It Completely Wrong

Don't panic, but NASA might have just blown up everything you thought you knew about your astrological sign. Keep breathing — everything's going to be okay (we hope!). It's been 3,000 years since the ancient Babylonians first drew up the zodiac, but in that time some things have changed. According to NASA, the sky (and the position of all its stars) has shifted because the North Pole doesn't point in quite the same direction as it did back then.

In fact, NASA says when the Babylonians first gave each month a sign they actually left one out to make it fit better. Okay, mind officially blown. So now to make up for this shift of Earth's axis, NASA has reorganized the zodiac and put the lost sign back in. Were you a Sagittarius? You might be an Ophiuchus now!

Before everyone loses their minds, NASA is just messing with the Sidereal Zodiac — one basically used by astronomers. Classic astrologists who use the Tropical Zodiac will likely reject this new arrangement, but it's up to you to decide what you want to believe.
