How accurate is the Zodiac?

So ... your Zodiac sign is based on where the sun was when you were born, right?? 😏

I was born on February 22 so everyone says I'm a Pisces. With me so far? Well, that conclusion is based on where the sun was on February 22nd, 1995. Right? Nope!!!! It's not.

I know this video is 14 minutes long which is beyond the attention span of most of us, but it's fascinating (and I LOVE Neil deGrasse Tyson!)

The current zodiac is at least a month off. I'm not a Pisces at all because while the sun was in Pisces on February 22 two thousand years ago when the signs were placed on the modern calendar, it was NOT in Pisces in 1995 on that date.

To understand that and a bunch of other mind-blowing astrophysics, check out the video. It's only 14 minutes. 😁

Whatever sign you think you are right now ... you are not that. 🤣

In the early 80's the Los Angeles Times dropped their horrorscope service subscription and got permission from them to run old ones as a test, the same letters of "my horrorscope is so accurate today" as before, that's when horrorscopes lost popularity when the L.A. Times ran it as a front page headline, and made international news as well. When I was a kid in the 70's, restsurants and stores sold monthly horrorscope scrolls for a quarter through vending machines, they were always sold out by the end of the first day and would sit empty the rest of the month.

@NativePortlander1970 Yeah, personally I find the whole subject a bit absurd and now we see that the dates we assign on our calendar for the various signs are actually off by a month!!! ROTFLMAO!!!
