You might not be the personthat you've been told thatyou are, astrologically speaking.

This an excerpt of a post on sidereal astrology from December.
I just received some new information.

"Sidereal astrology is the practice of some Western and all Indian astrologers to base their study of the sky on the actual position of the planets in relation to the starry background. Most astrologers in the Americas and in Western Europe have adopted the tropical zodiac approach. They base their study on a notional view of the heavens that does not match the actual positions of the stars.



"Sidereal astrology is more closely related to the actual constellations. Precession of the equinoxes moves the astrology signs forward through the years. Thus, sidereally, Aries begins in April instead of March. As an example, if you are a March Aries in tropical astrology, then you are a Pisces in sidereal astrology."



These are the current dates
for the Sun's transit through the zodiac:

Capricorn: January 19 to February 15
Aquarius: February 16 to March 11
Pisces: March 12 to April 18
Aries: April 19 to May 13
Taurus: May 14 to June 19
Gemin: June 20 to July 20
Cancer: July 21 to August 9
Leo: August 10 to September 15
Virgo: September 16 to October 30
Libra: October 31 to November 22
Scorpius: November 23 to November 29
Ophiuchus: November 30 to December 17
Sagittarius: December 18 to January 18

"About 2,000 years ago, the sidereal and tropical zodiacal systems were in approximate agreement. However, the tropical zodiacal system assumes that the constellations are all the same size, which they are not.

"Finally, because of precession of the equinoxes, there is a difference of about one zodiacal sign between the two systems."
