So NASA have created a new star sign, meaning many have changed. What do you think?

Previous Libra now a Virgo here. I've never really been one for reading horoscopes etc but I am quite gutted, I liked being a Libra

Is it April 1st?

Somethingorotherorother · 15/07/2020 09:31

Apart from the fact that it's all nonsense, i don't think NASA are actually in charge of any of this, and i think you should feel free to ignore them.

Shoxfordian · 15/07/2020 09:33

Ooh I'm the new one
Wonder what an ociphiwhatsit is

GoatsDoRome · 15/07/2020 09:33

I know what you mean. Was an amusing teenage past time and now.. well now I’m a pisces and what on earth is that all about? Aries was so much cooler!

(/disclaimer don’t believe it in)

WhoWouldHaveThoughtThat · 15/07/2020 09:34

Oh dear, does that mean all my old personality traits have gone and I've got to mould myself to some new ones. That's sounds a bit messy and especially for me being a perfectionist - or I was.

Mycatismadeofstringcheese · 15/07/2020 09:45

Oh no! I used to be a quirky independent Aquarius, and now I’m a practical and reliable Capricorn. How will I cope?

No Fascinated it's not a hoax, it's in all the papers this morning www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/nasa-uncovers-new-horoscope-mean-22353550.amp

I don't want to change star signs and I won't! Grin
-ignoring NASA

HavingAMoan · 15/07/2020 09:50

It amuses me how anyone that believes in star signs associates their character traits to being a particular star sign, and now NASA have gone and changed it. 😂

drinkingwineoutofamug · 15/07/2020 09:51

According to that I am no longer a cancer but Gemini. I have none of the traits of a Gemini.

RaininSummer · 15/07/2020 09:51

I can't change as my 10 year old work mug says I am a Sagittarius so I am not becoming the ichabobby one.

VoldemortsMaid · 15/07/2020 09:51

I think people are seriously mixing up astronomy and astrology.

NASA have nothing to do with star signs.

Stop believe everything on the Internet.

IveSeenThings · 15/07/2020 09:52

Eh? This is literally the weirdest thing to have been working in during a global pandemic.
Why? Just why?

serialreturner · 15/07/2020 09:53

I am so not changing to Aries. I am Taurus through and through.

BabyLlamaZen · 15/07/2020 10:00

Anyone got a decent list of what each sign is supposed to mean? Curious as to whether I fit my new star sign better. Grin

Badtasteflump · 15/07/2020 10:01

I know it's load of poop but this has really niggled me! I don't like my 'new' sign and have always liked being my 'old' one. Why do NASA give a monkeys about Astrology anyway, and how are 'Astrologists' who have spent the last gazillion years telling every one how much they really are like their star sign, that actually they are now just like a different one? 😖

SplendidDaysInTheGarden · 15/07/2020 10:02

This is a load of nonsense and has been around since at least 2011: slate.com/technology/2011/01/astrological-sign-of-the-times.html

Good article here from 2016 explaining the wheres and whys of this story: www.newscientist.com/article/2107207-no-nasa-hasnt-changed-the-zodiac-signs-or-added-a-new-one/

Llamazoom · 15/07/2020 10:05

I’m still Aries, still a drama queen😂

SauvignonBlanketyBlank · 15/07/2020 10:07

No! I'm an Aries through and through enough of this
Pisces bullshit

Cam2020 · 15/07/2020 10:07

What difference will it make? Its just a load of personality traits ascribed to a particular sign that most people will be able to pick one or two that ring true, anyway. I'm sure if I looked at all the chacteristics of each star sign I'd be able to identify with every one to some extent!

verybritishproblems · 15/07/2020 10:10

Poor Scorpio has been relegated to 6 days. The Pluto of astrology.

Badtasteflump · 15/07/2020 10:11

Cam I thought I agreed with you, but when I read the description of my 'new' sign it doesn't sound like me at all, whereas my old one really does..... makes me wonder if I've been acting like my old sign on purpose all my life 😯

ScottishStottie · 15/07/2020 10:12

Mine has changed. Was cancer, now gemini.

I dont believe in it, but as a young impressionable tween reading teen magazines and studying horoscope pages, i always read both and felt i was more like gemini (date leaving me in cancer was very close to gemini) so think its funny that my instinct when i was younger was right!

But then i remember its all rubbish and i dont believe, but i never did identify with cancer...

AlCalavicci · 15/07/2020 10:12

@serialreturner
Me too though my DD said there should be a mule starsign as I was , and still am bloody stubborn sometimes

Is anyone eles getting this ad ?

Can we just all take a moment for all those who had their sign tattooed on their body... Grin
