I was getting worried there, since my birthday is November 14 and as you say "Scorpio seems to be a better fit...emotionally needy, introverted, mean-spirited at times, kind of a drama queen, etc....". Most people who know me would nod their heads vigorously at that description.Spawn of Endrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10431848914619887998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-59081523062253492502011-01-14T19:49:21.101-08:002011-01-14T19:49:21.101-08:00Isn't it a lot earlier than the '90s?

Plus, I believe there are a couple other alternative zodiac schemes floating around; I seem to recall that there's a 16-sign zodiac system...<br /><br />My reaction to the news story was thus "ho hum". Not only had I heard it before and thought it was pretty much common knowledge to anyone who's read a reasonable amount about astrology, but the news got the whole "Age of ____" thing wrong. The whole concept of the Age of Aquarius was based on the idea that the precession of the equinoxes shifted every 2,000 years ago.Talysmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162328521343832412noreply@blogger.com
