Greetings, my fellow starf*ckers! With the news of this sassy new sign busting onto the scene and yourself possibly NOT being the sign you’ve thought you were your whole life, it’s kind of like finding out you MIGHT be adopted, I know. And you’re sitting there, endlessly combing google and twitter, wondering WTF does all this mean for me????
For anyone who is curious as to WHY the sun is seeming to pass through a different sign than the one that you read your horoscopes for, here is a little physics lesson: The earth wobbles (thanks, big bang!), and the tilt has caused us to see the sun pass through a different sign form our teeny tiny perspective. Oh, this has happened for the last 2000 years, by the way. But now… some “scientists” in “Minnesota” are saying that I am not actually a Gemini… I’m a TAURUS?? Jeez, well if I weren’t already a walking Identity crisis, this would sure as hell cause one! And because Lindsay Lohan hasn’t had her annual Cancerian substance abuse meltdown, we needed something to sensationalize. LiLO, get back on track! We need to get back to zodialogical bizness as usual.
Tired of the tyranny of just having to be one astrological sign? Ready to trade in your ram horns for a set of fish fins? Just in case any of you are actually LOOKING for the opportunity to jump ship to a new sign (I know, Pisces) I’ve developed a cheat sheet for ya, so you know what you’ll be getting yourself into. Though most people I’ve spoken to regarding their possible “new sign” ADAMANTLY pronounce that they cannot be swayed, if you get a good deal, you should probably take it!
PS: If I have to be a Taurus now, I am taking Morrissey with me, then you’re ALL in trouble.
Plan to defect, but remember, hell is other people. I’ll stick with the devil I know.
