Dates for the new Zodiac alignment

IMO, Astrology is pseudo-science and not reliable.  Same with Tarot and other practices.  Yes, I read Tarot -- I've never said it is a science, infallible or reliable.  Yes, I've has my chart done by someone I respect in other arenas, but I maintain that in my experience, astrology, tarot, the runes, pendulums, et cetera ad infinitum are ways to get you to pay attention to your subconscious -- the part of your brain that processes things while you're not paying attention. 

To those of you who are flailing wildly at the idea that you now have to readjust your personalities and daily lives to reflect your new signs:  I really hope you're being facetious.

From what I'm reading, this "new sign" will only affect those born after 2008. The rest of us can breathe easy. And I'm breathing especially easy because I'll still be an Aquarius ;)

My Aunt Helene, a devout Catholic and a professional astrologer back in the 70s and 80s, had a great analogy she used to explain astrology; "God created all the heavens and the earth. He also put a hidden calculator* up there to keep track of how personalities were assigned to the newly-born."
This made sense to me as a teen, and just as much sense today. And I give as much credence to astrology as I do to Catholicism.

*pre-personal computers. She would have loved PCs as a better analogy.
