It turns out that the dates for the Western zodiac calendar have moved, with each one beginning much later. You are now a Sagittarius if you were born in early to mid-January as a Capricorn.
Early- to mid-July-born cancers? Stop crying and whining about how sad you are. You are, in fact, a Gemini.
Oh, and Ophiuchus is the new 13th astrological sign. We know, it sounds like a “Matrix” figure. Those of you born between November 29 and December 17 are now Ophiuchus-es.

What are the 2020 zodiac signs?
According to Western astrology, there are 12 zodiac signs (meaning “signs of the zodiac”) “There are 13 constellations that the Sun travels through each year, not just a circle of animals:
Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Ophiuchus, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
Unfortunately, astrologers’ dates given to star signs are incorrect, in addition to neglecting Ophiuchus. Here’s what astrology claims happens in the night sky, based on its line-of-sight theory “Insights into people’s moods and fortunes:

Because the Sun isn’t in the sign of the zodiac when astrology says it is, your horoscope is probably incorrect. Of course, none of this matters, but knowing why will help you have a better knowledge of the globe you live on.
Is the Age of Aquarius still going on?
The Age of Aquarius is now in full swing. For many, there was a noticeable shift in energy from 2020 to 2021, albeit both years were a roller coaster. Apart with navigating the Covid era, we’ve also been told that we’ve entered a new astrological phase.
What makes it unique? That’s where things get a bit tricky, but we’ve sought the expertise of psychic and astrologer Inbaal Honigman to help us figure it out. However, keep in mind that the Age of Aquarius is frequently linked to social action, equality, and advancement. Finally. Everything you need to know is right here…
If I was born in June, what sign am I?
2. Gemini (May 21 June 20) or Cancer (June 21 June 20) are the zodiac signs for babies born in June (June 21 – July 22). Gemini children are intelligent and inquisitive. Cancer signals are compassionate and nurturing.
3. Morgan Freeman (June 1), Angelina Jolie (June 4), Liam Neeson (June 7), Neil Patrick Harris (June 15), and Meryl Streep all have June birthdays (June 22).
4. Your June baby could be born on National Donut Day or Smile Power Day (June 15), or on Father’s Day, which falls on the third Sunday in June and is also known as National Selfie Day (June 21).
Aries, who should you marry?
Libra (opposites attract), Sagittarius, and Leo are the most compatible signs for Aries in friendship and romantic relationships (fellow fire signs will speak their same passionate language).
What does it mean to be a Leo?
Because Leo has come, the red carpet should be rolled out. The lion represents Leo, and these fiery fire signs are the celestial jungle’s kings and queens. They’re ecstatic to be a part of the royal family: Leos love to be in the spotlight and celebrate themselves. They are vivacious, dramatic, and passionate. These lions are natural leaders who appreciate building artistically and creatively inspired friendships and romances. Leos aren’t afraid to become involved in drama-filled romances that are excellent for the tabloids. (In fact, they could like them.) After all, every Leo considers themselves to be a celebrity. Luxurious dinners, exclusive parties, and sumptuous designer clothes never get old for these astrological divas.

Is there any truth to the zodiac signs?
Is astrology accurate? Reading horoscopes is a popular pastime, but is there any scientific evidence that they are accurate?
When you’re enticed by a familiar interruption and your willpower weakens, problems can occur.
Every day, up to 70 million Americans consult their horoscopes. At least, that’s what the American Federation of Astrologers claims. According to a Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life poll conducted twenty years ago, 25% of Americans believe that the positions of the stars and planets have an impact on our daily life. In 2012, the General Social Survey indicated that 34% of Americans think astrology is “extremely” or “kind of scientific,” with the percentage of individuals who think astrology is “not at all scientific” dropping from two-thirds to about half.
Astrology is the concept that astronomical phenomena, such as the stars over your head when you were born or the fact that Mercury is retrograde, have the potential to influence our daily lives and personality traits. Of course, this is distinct from astronomy, which is the scientific study of celestial objects, space, and the physics of the cosmos.
A particular facet of astrology, the foretelling of a person’s future or the provision of daily counsel via horoscopes, is gaining in popularity. The Cut, for example, recorded a 150 percent rise in horoscope page views in 2017 compared to 2016.
Clearly, a lot of people are trying to figure out how to read the stars for guidance. Understanding the positions of the stars is the foundation of astrology, which appears to be a scientific discipline in and of itself. Is there any scientific evidence that astrology has an impact on our personalities and lives?
But, since I still have five minutes of this six-minute podcast to fill, let’s take a look at how astrology has been put to the test.
