WASHINGTON - For those of you who reads a horoscope every day, you may want to recheck what your Zodiac sign is.
According to astronomers with the Minnesota Planetarium Society, the moon's gravitational pull on the Earth has caused the alignment of the stars to be pushed by about a month.
Because of this, the Zodiac that your birthday may have been corresponded to might not be correct.
So how does this affect your Zodiac sign? Here is where they should now fall, according to the society.
- Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16
- Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11
- Pisces: March 11-April 18
- Aries: April 18-May 13
- Taurus: May 13-June 21
- Gemini: June 21-July 20
- Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10
- Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16
- Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30
- Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23
- Scorpio: Nov. 23-29
- Ophiuchus: Nov. 29-Dec. 17
- Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20
For those born between Nov. 29 to Dec. 17, note that your Zodiac sign is Ophiuchus.
Ophiuchus, or the snake holder, was ejected from the charts when the Zodiac was codified at the 12 we know of today, to align it more accurately with the calendar, according to Parke Kunkle, a board member of the society, told the Minnesota Star Tribune.
But with the realignment of the stars, some former Sagittarians and Capricorns now have a new Zodiac sign.
