There is also a whole new sign — Ophiuchus, the snake bearer, for people born between November 29 and December 17. Astrological signs are determined by the sun’s position in relation to a constellation on your day of birth — but the night sky nowadays has moved around since the Babylonians first invented the 12 signs of the zodiac more than 2,500 years ago. Ancient astrologers wanted to chart the 360-degree path of the sun in a mathematically pleasing 12 equal parts, each one of 30 degrees. They studied an apparent relationship between the constellations’ placements in the sky and the movement of the sun and the 12 signs were born. ♑ CAPRICORN NOW:January 20 - February 16 OLD DATES: December 22 – January 20 ♒ AQUARIUS NOW: February 16 to March 11 OLD DATES: January 21 – February 18 ♓ PISCES NOW: March 11 to April 18 OLD DATES: February 19 – March 20 ♈ ARIES NOW: April 18 to May 13 OLD DATES: March 21 – April 20 ♉ TAURUS NOW: May 13 to June 21 OLD DATES: April 21 – May 21 ♊ GEMINI INOW: June 21 to July 20 OLD DATES: May 22 – June 21 ♋ CANCER NOW: July 20 to August 10 OLD DATES: June 22 – July 22 ♌ LEO NOW: August 10 - September 16 OLD DATES: July 23 – August 23 ♍ VIRGO NOW: September 16 to October 30 OLD DATES: August 24 – September 22 ♎ LIBRA NOW: October 30 to November 23 OLD DATES: September 23 – October 23 ♏ SCORPIO NOW: November 23 to November 29 OLD DATES: October 24 – November 22 OPHIUCHUS November 29 to December 17 ♐ SAGITTARIUS NOW: December 17 - January 20 OLD DATES: November 23 – December 21
