In essence, the day that determines our star sign corresponds to the Sun’s location in relation to the constellations of stars that are visible at the time of our birth.
The zodiac constellations of Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces are all traversed by the Sun as seen from the revolving Earth. Originally, the constellation that the Sun was “in” on the day we were born was used to define our zodiac sign. However, since the creation of our zodiac system more than 3000 years ago, the sky and constellations have changed.
So even if we could think of ourselves as a perfectly balanced Libra, a confident Aries, or a “complete Gemini,” that is probably not the truth. On the other hand, this may be really wonderful news for anyone who feels like they simply don’t connect with their own horoscope (we’re thinking of you, Scorpios).

What makes the zodiac signs unique?
NASA
as in, real NASA, of course
have demonstrated that the sky has changed significantly since the Babylonians first created the 12 zodiac signs, over 3,000 years ago.
The sky has changed because Earth’s axis (North Pole) doesn’t point exactly in the same direction, they said. Now because Mimi was born on August 4, she was not born in Leo but rather “under the sign” of Cancer, which is one constellation “early.”

The third-rarest sign of the zodiac, Sagittarius, “falls during the autumn season and are renowned to be adventurous and free-spirited,” according to Stardust.
Ophiuchus: Who is he?

What is said about star signs in the Bible?
I believe that astrology was a tool God created for us to use as a spiritual tool and to better understand ourselves. I think there are numerous scriptural passages that lend credibility to astrology. I concentrate on what Jesus taught as a Christian. When Christ prophesied in Luke 21:25, “There shall be signs in the sun, moon, and stars,” he was referring to the significance of astrology. He talks to the disciples about the significance of astrology and how it might be interpreted as a sign of his coming back. Why would Jesus reveal this crucial information to us if we are not intended to interpret the energies of the planets and signs and if he actually opposed it? Jesus warned us that there will be signals in the sky upon his return, just as the three wise men understood that Jesus would be born under the star in the sky that guided them to him lying in the manger.
