12 zodiac signs 13 constellations

Minnesota an astronomer confirmed that many people guess, "your sign may be wrong," why is the earth's axis of changes in the past 3000 years, has changed the 12 zodiac signs, but also from the 13th constellation ─ Ophiuchus (Ophiuchus).

According to Taiwan's ettv news comprehensive reports, for example, if you think you areAquarius:, maybe is youPisces;Turned out to beSagittarius, is likelyScorpio, can be classified as Ophiuchus.At the same time, according to the thousands of years ago in ancient Babylon constellation, also from the 13th constellation ─ Ophiuchus (Ophiuchus).

Minneapolis (Minneapolis) Star BBS newspaper (Star - Tribune), according to the ancient babylonians according to the position of the sun on the ecliptic at birth to judge a person's sign.Since then, the earth is influenced by the moon's gravity, which leads to the axis of swing (wobble), sign corresponding month so goes on for about a month.

Astronomers kunduz Kerr (Parke by) points out, "come here due to the Angle change, the earth, the sun on the ecliptic by constellation is different from 3000 years ago when he began to study constellation."This change is not a new message, he says, is only fortune-telling constellation forget the factors into account in the earth.

12 zodiac signs already unreliable?

, according to post signs time the cause of the change, is "the earth's axis, the change of the mobile of the solar system and the movement of the star itself", in "the position of the constellation of the zodiac and different" 1500 years ago.

According to the date of the changes, the original start on March 21AriesThe time of beginning and ending, and now into April 19 - May 13, the rest of the sign off in turn.After the original Scorpio, is more than a Ophiuchus, total 13 constellations.

"Really, I amlibra"" how do I become Ophiuchus, what is this sign?"For a little knowledge of most people, this change is not small, some netizens said "feel constellation messy in the world".

Questions about constellation changes in recent years were amateur astronomers and constellation lovers take turns to discuss.Jiangsu minguo astronomy experts said, the claim is reasonable, simple speaking, this is the constellation of astronomy and astrology sign on the time difference, the difference is produced by precession.

Precession lead to dislocation of the force, and the constellation of the zodiac

To understand this problem, must first understand the concept of the ecliptic.The earth revolves round the sun once a year, viewed from earth, the position of the stars is basically remain unchanged.And the sun is shuttling between the planets.The sun's orbit is a circular orbit, we called the ecliptic.

The babylonians in 2000 years BC to the ecliptic is divided into 12 areas, each area corresponds to a sign, when the sun into the area, is called the sun into the ecliptic, a palace for force, namely, each palace is 30 degrees, the sun is basically a fixed period of time in the each palace, now a year after March 21 days before the sun came to the vernal equinox, into the house of the ram.Ram palace roughly coincide with the Aries stars at the time, that is the force on the divination and astronomy on basic coincidence of the 12 signs of the zodiac.

But under the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon, the earth's spin axis point is not fixed to the same position in the sky, but the circles in the sky.This phenomenon is called precession.Minguo explained that after two thousand years of precession of accumulation, the position of the constellation basic does not change, but the zodiac has moved to the west more than a house.Babylonian times, for example, when the spring equinox, the sun in Aries, but today due to the precession effect, when the spring equinox, the sun ran to Pisces.

Ophiuchus has been near the ecliptic, ancient but the position of the zodiac and today is a little different, because people tend to 12 the number instead of 13, Ophiuchus therefore not have been counted.Precession change the position of the on the celestial sphere of the zodiac, combined with today's constellation boundaries clear, the ecliptic certainly after Ophiuchus, into astronomy today on the 13th constellation of the zodiac.

But astrology and astronomy is not compatible, you also don't too care about.Like minguo said, "astrology as to meet the psychological needs of many people, but as long as not fanaticism".

Our star has changed after two thousand, the date of the constellation is different also, the following is a new date that:

Ophiuchus is through the zodiac

Due to changes in the earth's axis, position of the constellation of the zodiac now very different from two thousand years ago.Traditional astrology think the through twelve constellation of the zodiac, modern astronomy is emphasis on 13th constellation Ophiuchus "also by the ecliptic, constellation dated December 1 solstice December 19, between shooter and Scorpio, the date of all the constellations, will all change.

If serpent into the thirteenth constellation Taurus will become Aries the Pisces into a water bottle, Scorpio is changed to 5 and November 30 November 20, shorten sharply from 30 days to six days, Sagittarius date more than half, Ophiuchus, the biggest impact.(The constellations /astro/zhishi/)

Even so, Ophiuchus is still does not belong to one of the twelve zodiac signs in astrology.About Ophiuchus differs from that in astronomy and astrology has always been a controversial between astrology enthusiasts an old topic.

Scorpio just six days

Scorpio reduced to six days, traditional Sagittarius has more than half of the date, instead of Ophiuchus.That the rounds on the Internet, many striker suddenly turned into "serpent", in the heart can't adapt to, have issued a protest!The central weather bureau astronomical station, the sun in a year, the path through the known as "ecliptic".Twelve zodiac astrology, refers to the sun on the ecliptic of the twelve zodiac signs, through which it originated from the period of Babylon three thousand years ago, modern astronomical science and technology progress, in 1928 the international astronomical conference have modified constellation range, through the constellation Ophiuchus is 13.Taipei municipal observatory said, if you follow astrology, was born at the time the sun to decide in what constellation constellation birthday, birthday constellation does may be landed in Ophiuchus.But because "precession", Huang Daoyou gradually moving to the west, on average every seventy-one years, birthday constellation corresponding date would be one day, Ophiuchus born because of this, but not compatible, astrology and astronomy people don't care.

The constellation expert

Con: the stars, the prince said astrology refers to the average distribution of the twelve constellations on the ecliptic, Ophiuchus is only one foot came in, in terms of proportion is few, does not constitute the constellation of the zodiac, Internet legend Ophiuchus is the thirteenth constellation of the zodiac, root is ignorance, in terms of astrology, Ophiuchus don't need to discuss.Against: constellation expert bud bud, said constellation Ophiuchus want to into the thirteenth, some discussion earlier abroad, in terms of astronomy, there may be significant;But astrology is not keen, twelve constellation will not change now.In fact, it just like debate "have to" god, you will have no conclusion, also do not need to argue.

Support: the constellation expert, said wang zhong ping science since confirmed the ecliptic by 13th constellation Ophiuchus, astrology should also keep pace with The Times, the Ophiuchus and research into astrology.Many astrologers for fear of a long time, their research twelve constellation characteristics define completely change, to subvert the original astrology, Ophiuchus and rejection, it (this) wrong.

Ophiuchus baby, a bright and cheerful disposition is sensitive

Ophiuchus (Ophiuchus) in classical constellation graph, the symbol of Greek medicine ShenAo, pease clay (AsclePius), the hands hold the serpent (Serpens), is a traditional symbol of health legend as clay pease medical skills, coming back to life ability to annoy hades, Zeus, hades complaints complain only gave birth to a undead disorderly dogma, Zeus felt right, will he clay pease executed, but admire Mr Osborne pease clay medical skill, will become a sign he ascended to heaven.Summer night ahead in the south, between Scorpio and Sagittarius a piece of the stars, can be found that Ophiuchus.

Constellation expert wang zhong ping said, Ophiuchus personality is quite interesting, Sagittarius serenity, but there is another sensitive Pisces carefully, will not bear grudges, also avoid the conflict, but others to his good or bad, the size of the things are clear remember;Astrology experts said bud bud, Greek mythology, the snake is not negative characterization, nationalitiesA snakeMan of the people, and don't worry about it.In addition, if Ophiuchus come true, in traditional astrology Sagittarius: more than half of the people, will become Ophiuchus.

Sagittarius (Sagittarius) signs of the zodiac symbols are an arrow, is also called the day of arrows, Sagittarius, Sagittarius, symbolize the sky flying arrow, full of carefree feeling.Therefore Sagittarius people advocate freedom, unrestrained and romantic, natural disposition is optimistic and enthusiasm, humor, forthright and sincere, to the life rich in philosophy, strong activity.Such a charming constellation characteristics, let many as a Sagittarius, and have a splendid one.So the emergence of Ophiuchus, let many sagittarians are deeply.

Astrologer said wang zhong ping, even become Ophiuchus, the basic characteristics of Sagittarius still exist, such as Sagittarius is open-minded optimism, free, just a bit sensitive, attentive, two constellations overlap much, still won't become another person, Ann.However, although constellations changed, but the constellation is divided into 12 doers of the word, and will not change because of the sign date change.
