    Default Should the Horoscope signs be updated?

    An odd news story I found today:

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41062376...nce/?GT1=43001

    Apparenly due to 3000 years worth of shifting the stars are not where they were originally. A prime example is the North Star. Currently it's Polaris. However back when the pyramids were being built the North Star was actually Thuban. In another 12,000 year it'll be Vega.

    According to astronomers these are the so called "real" dates of the astrological signs (which include a 13th sign that the Babylonians ignored due to wanting 12 signs instead of 13)

    • Capricorn: Jan 20-Feb 16
    • Aquarius: Feb 16-Mar 11
    • Pisces: Mar 11-Apr 18
    • Aries: April 18-May 13
    • Taurus: May 13-June 21
    • Gemini: Jun 21-Jul 20
    • Cancer: Jul 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

    Thoughts on the story?
