As usual, you’re correct! I’m born on a cusp.

Just a lucky guess based on what you said! Being on a cusp is one possible explanation for why some traits of a sign would apply but others not so much. Alan shared another, and I imagine, with how vast and exciting astrology is, there are even more possibilities out there that could be explored

What if we recalculated the current Sun’s transits and update the astrology dates?

From what I’ve seen around, some astrologers do consider Ophiuchus in their calculations- it seems to depend on which school of astrological thought you follow.

The way I was taught is that modern astrology is different from astrology in ancient times (as things have naturally changed)- modern astrology is fixed on the solstices and equinoxes that we have in our Gregorian calendar. Here’s a quote about it:

@Francisco

While each of these sectors carries the name of a constellation, the zodiac signs in Western astrology are aligned to the equinoxes and solstices rather than the constellations. For example, Aries starts with the spring equinox in March and Capricorn with the winter solstice, December 21st in the Northern hemisphere.

I suppose the best anyone can do is to explore different ideas and definitions, compare schools of thought, and then use whatever feels most right to them! The fun thing about astrology is that there doesn’t seem to be many limits- there’s a lot of freedom in this area of study

Oh gods if that was a actual challenge i would be so unsure of what to do.

I know the feeling! (So no worries- it won’t be a formal challenge, at least not around here! )
