It all started with a story that had been resurfaced. Ophiuchus, or the serpent-bearer, is the 13th zodiac sign found by NASA. Anyone born between November 29 and December 17 is an Ophiuchus, not a Scorpio or a Sagittarius. Scorpio’s window would be reduced to just seven days, and the entire astrology chart would alter, resulting in different star signs for some Pisces, Leos, and Libras. As astrology fans on the internet began to panic, NASA stepped in to gently correct the record.

Is 17 December a cusp?
The material of this page is based on Gary Goldschneider and Thomas Rezek’s book The Secret Language of Birthdays.
If you were born between December 18 and 24, on the cusp of Sagittarius and Capricorn, you are a true visionary on the road to greatness! Your strong will and great dedication will get you anyplace you want to go since you were born on the Cusp of Prophecy.
Jupiter, the planet of growth, rules Sagittarius, while Saturn, the planet of boundaries and lessons, regulates Capricorn, so you have the best of both worlds! This unique blend of inspiration and sensibility bestows upon you not just amazing ideas, but also the ability to put them into action.
You’re propelled onward with tenacity by the passion of a Fire sign (Sagittarius) and the determination of an Earth sign (Capricorn). The Fire element encourages you to think positively and to be enthusiastic about life, yet it can quickly become extinguished. Fortunately, you are also impacted by the Earth element, which provides you with an extra boost of stamina to get things done.
Social, kind, and loyal people are born on the Sagittarius-Capricorn axis. You’ll always be surrounded by individuals who adore and respect you and care about what you have to say. Others constantly seek your guidance since you are so wise and reasonable. Just be nice and patient with people who approach you! You have a natural talent for teaching others, as long as you don’t get harsh or impatient with others who learn at a different rate.
The Sagittarius-Capricorn cusp influences courageous, hardworking people who are determined to succeed! You’re fired up and ready to work your way up the corporate ladder. Your great concentration and desire, though, may cause a chasm between you and your loved ones. You are self-reliant and uncompromising, and while this approach will help you change the world, it may leave you feeling lonely at times.
Who should Ophiuchus marry?
Compatible? CAPRICORN, LEO, GEMINI In Leo, Ophiuchus would find a passionate combatant, in Gemini, a wonderful thinker and fellow adventurer, and in Capricorn, an ambitious and strong mate. Because Opiuchus isn’t known for his loyalty, they could be able to’mingle’ with all three!
PISCES is the wild card. You both have amazing and powerful imaginations, and you can create a lifestyle that others would envy if you worked together. You two are a true cosmic fit, bringing enchantment to this world.
Should you avoid it at all costs? SAGITTARIUS. Opiuchus would not find the common Sagittarian’s tactlessness and clumsiness endearing or amusing. It would enrage them to no end.
What is December Sagittarius?
Sagittarius is a zodiac sign that has a birthday between November 22 and December 21, and belongs to the Fire element (along with Leo and Aries). Sagittarians are the zodiac’s bright, breezy, and endearing ‘Tiggers,’ all huge hugs, bouncy energy, and lots of laughs. They are spontaneous, impolite, honest, humorous, and challenging because they have no filters. You’ll know all about this if you know a Sagittarian! They’ll say things to you that irritate you, but everything will be fine in five minutes. It’s impossible to remain enraged with them.
Sagittarians are vivacious, passionate, intelligent, and philosophical, despite their clownish energy. They crave freedom and despise rules, regulations, restrictions, and timetables. They simply enjoy doing what they do when they want to. They were born to travel, adventure, explore, and be free.
They are all jammy so-and-sos, ruled by Jupiter, who (no matter how crazy an expedition they undertake) always land on their feet and smelling like flowers. Sagittarians make excellent weekend companions.
We simply need to look at some of the most famous archers to get an idea of the classic Sagittarius personality qualities and types: Brad Pitt, Chrissy Teigen, Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Jay-Z, Britney Spears, and Tyra Banks. There’s never a dull moment with these guys.
Is December 17 A rare birthday?
Thanks to the good guys at FiveThirtyEight, whose reporters put the tables on Github for an unrelated project, this new version of the heatmap, which is interactive on larger screens, utilizes births by day from 1994 to 2014. It shows the average number of births each day, the rank (one being the most common), and an approximated though slightly rash conception date.
- Holidays: People appear to have more time for baby-making on their vacations. Several of the most common birth dates in September coincide with the most common conception periods around Christmas. The most common day in this dataset is September 9, however other days in that month come close. The 19th of September is the second. Many of these kids would have been created on Dec. 17 and 27, respectively, if a normal gestation period had been followed.
- Choice: Obviously, some people have a say in when they have children. Many individuals are having babies around the holidays, but they aren’t really having them. Christmas Eve, Christmas, and New Year’s Day were the least common birthdays in this dataset. Thanksgiving dates aren’t as prevalent as they once were. The Fourth of July is likewise near the bottom of the list. Valentine’s Day, on the other hand, rates pretty high, as shown in the graph, as do the days leading up to the start of a new tax year.
- Skewed: There are some interesting trends in this data, but your birthday isn’t that different from a top date in September unless it’s on a genuinely unique day. The data has a left-tailed skewness, ranging from 6,500 to more than 12,000 births each day. However, the average number of births per day is roughly 11,000 people. On average, there were 12,300 births on the most common day. Soon, more on data dispersion.
Can Sagittarius be with Sagittarius?
The compatibility between Sagittarius and Sagittarius is excellent. These two zodiac signs will get along swimmingly. They’ll have a lot of great, unplanned excursions together. They’ll also have a lot of laughs together. Their communication, on the other hand, will be a problem. They’re not going to want to talk about their feelings, which could make the relationship suffer. If two Scorpios wish to work together, they must become acquainted with each other’s vulnerability.
Taurus Soulmate
Taurus is the most devoted of the zodiac signs, remaining faithful to the right person till the end. Their ideal soulmate is someone who feels the same way they do about their feelings. They want someone who can make them feel like they are the only person in the world by being trustworthy, loyal, honest, and clear.
Gemini Soulmate
When it comes to choosing a life partner, the Gemini is quite picky. Their ideal partner is intelligent, funny, and lives an intriguing life rather than a dull one!
Cancer Soulmate
The Cancer has a big heart and is quite lovable. They require someone who is both affectionate and intelligent in order to make them feel special and appreciated. They are looking for someone that is compassionate and empathic.

Leo is drawn to those who are fascinating, confident, and secretive. They want someone who isn’t afraid to be themselves. They enjoy playing mental games!
Virgo Soulmate
Someone who is motivated and has a purpose in mind is the Virgo’s soulmate, not someone who procrastinates all day. When it comes to finding a love, the Virgo needs to be serious!
Libra Soulmate
The Libra won’t settle for anything less than perfection; they seek someone who has it all, including good appearance, intelligence, and self-assurance. They admire physical beauty, are drawn to intelligent people, and admire people who are self-assured!
Scorpio Soulmate
The Scorpio is a lover who loves profoundly, intensely, and unconditionally. Their ideal soulmate is someone who shares their feelings. They also enjoy a personality that keeps them guessing until the very end.
Sagittarius Soulmate
Sagittarians respect self-sufficiency. Their ideal partner is someone who is caring and open-minded while also giving them space. They despise possessive or clinging people.
Capricorn Soulmate
Capricorn is a finicky sign. They want their spouses to be well-dressed, stylish, and confident in their own skin. Apart from these qualities, they should be trustworthy and loyal!
Pisces Soulmate
Pisces prefer to have a good time and live in their own world. Someone who is as crazy as they are, has a creative mindset, and can connect with them deeply is their ideal soulmate.
What are December Capricorns like?
Capricorns are born between December 22nd and January 20th, and are associated with the Earth element of the zodiac (along with Taurus and Virgo – who they happen to be incredibly compatible with, romantically). The members of the Earth sign are all realistic, self-sufficient, stoic, and ambitious. You’d want them on your side, but perhaps not at a party.
Capricorns are the zodiac’s toughest workers, and nothing makes them happier than achieving ahead in life. They are determined, materialistic, and powerful. When others would have given up 10 kilometers ago, they will keep going. As a result, they make excellent life partners, as well as friends and collaborators.
Capricorns prefer to keep their social circles modest, but they are devoted to and supportive of their loved ones. They enjoy building safe, lavish nests and leading a wealthy, desirable existence. They place a premium on living a healthy lifestyle. Capricorns are born astute; they understand what makes people tick and are self-aware of their own needs and characteristics. Caps are a nice bunch of individuals!
We only need to glance at some of the most renowned celebrity Capricorns to get a sense of the traditional Capricorn personality qualities and types: Kate Middleton, Michelle Obama, Dolly Parton, Bradley Cooper, Zayn Malik, John Legend, and Liam Hemsworth, to mention a few.
Are December babies special?
According to several studies, newborns born in December had the best chance of avoiding severe disorders such as neurological, cardiovascular, respiratory, and reproductive diseases. This could be due to the quantity of vitamin D and sunlight that mothers are exposed to during pregnancy during different seasons, according to researchers. Diet, exercise, genetics, and stress, among other things, all have an impact on health.
Who is Ophiuchus soulmate?
I’m not directly touched by the rekindled dispute regarding Ophiuchus, the 13th zodiac sign, because I’m a proud (and predictably stubborn) Taurus. The sign, which lies between Scorpio and Sagittarius and encompasses those born between November 29 and December 17, is not universally accepted as part of the official zodiac. However, learning about the sign’s history and the psychological attributes of Ophiuchus is fascinating. Most importantly, if you use astrology for love (and who doesn’t? ), you might be even more interested in how the Ophiuchus sign behaves in relationships and which signs are most and least compatible with them.
For those of you who were as perplexed as I was, Ophiuchus (pronounced Of-ee-You-Cus) means “serpent carrier” and represents a human being entwined with a snake, which is ideal for all you Slytherins out there. Their personality is complex, and their ideal spouse is someone who can complement them and deal with some of their less desirable characteristics.
The most important aspect of a successful relationship with Ophiuchus, according to Wong, is respecting their need to be free and unbound, as well as their want to be appreciated. An Ophiuchus is best suited to someone who is intelligent but content in a âsupporting role.â âThe perfect spouse shouldn’t require as much praise and should have inner confidence to complement what an Ophiuchus can offer,â she explains. âLike the crew of a movie that shines a light on the actor, the appropriate partner must be a solid backbone for the relationship.â
If you’re wondering if you and an Ophiuchus are a good match, these are the five most compatible signs for the serpent bearer.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Because they’re both creative daydreamers, the Neptune-ruled Pisces is the ideal match for Ophiuchus. Pisces is a sign that puts their heart and soul into their relationships and wants to play a more supportive role, which is ideal for Ophiuchus in a romantic relationship. These are two signs, according to Wong, who can readily express their emotions and feelings. âMoreover, both signs are easygoing when it comes to adapting to new situations, so they would be ideal partners in times of transition,â she adds.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Capricorn, a realistic, goal-oriented, and ambitious sign, would get along swimmingly with Ophiuchus. They’re both intellectually ambitious, hardworking, and competitive in their professional and personal lives, according to Wong. When one of you needs to put in extra time at work, both partners will be understanding and supportive, because they understand that some things are required in order to reach your goals. Capricorn has no objections to Ophiuchus spending time for themselves, but will gladly listen to their complaints if they need someone to listen. Capricorn will be a grounding influence for Ophiuchus whenever they are in one of their moods. These two appear to be a well-balanced power pair.
Ophiuchus (November 29 to December 17)
When it comes to love, not every zodiac sign can effectively date another zodiac sign. After all, your worst characteristics will almost certainly be reflected back to you. Wong, on the other hand, believes that a couple with two Ophiuchus signs would have a lot of fun together. âAn Ophiuchus is always looking for pleasure, therefore it stands to reason that they are particularly compatible with their type, especially when traveling,â she explains.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Cancer is no exception for Ophiuchus, who seems to perform well with sensitive Water signs. Cancer and Ophiuchus, according to Wong, are a wonderful combination because both are devoted and possessive signs. âThe latter trait occasionally borders on jealousy,â Wong notes. âHowever, it prepares the path for physical and emotional fulfillment, both of which are essential for a happy relationship.â Cancer, like Pisces, is content to play the supporting role, which Ophiuchus values much in a mate. Overall, Cancer and Ophiuchus are a solid match because Cancer will make Ophiuchus feel at ease, while Ophiuchus will make Cancer feel needed.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
âOphiuchus and Libras complement each other well since Libras, a gentle combination of Capricorn and Pisces, are intellectuals, creative thinkers, and art lovers,â explains Wong. They’ll hit it off immediately away and have enthralling chats that will last for hours. Both Ophiuchus and Libra have a desire to travel to new locations and explore the unknown. Another relationship-oriented sign, Libra, is obsessed with keeping their spouse happy. Libra will provide space for Ophiuchus if they require it. Libra is more than happy to reassure them and shower them with attention if they need it. These two signals are likely to begin as friends before moving on to a more love level.
