Has the world around changed so much that the 13th sign appeared in the horoscope? Let's try to figure it out.
There are 12 traditional astrological constellations.
Aries, Taurus, Gemini, etc. form the inner zodiac circle or the so-called Lower Zodiac (NC). Analyzing the inner zodiac circle, astrologers draw up an everyday (mundane) portrait of a person. This includes possible life scenarios, personal characteristics, behavior patterns, basic life tasks.
The Upper Zodiac (EO) also consists of 12 equal sectors. The sectors of the outer zodiacal circle are located at the junctions between the sectors of the inner circle. Each individual sector has its own sign of the Higher Zodiac (see photo below).
The OT sign affects those born in the first and last week of the NT sign.
Details in the table below.
| Upper zodiac sign | Period of the Sun's stay in the sign | What signs does NZ affect |
| Clock/Cepheus | March 14-27 | Aries (last week) Pisces (first week) |
| Winged Horse / Pegasus | February 12-25 | Pisces (last week); Aquarius (first week) |
| Swan/Sphinx | January 13-26 | Aquarius (last week); Capricorn (first week) |
| Tree/Cassiopeia | December 15-28 | Capricorn (last week); Sagittarius (first week) |
| Ophiuchus | November 15-28 | Sagittarius (last week); Scorpio (first week) |
| Crow | October 16-29 | Scorpio (last week); Libra (first week). |
| Bootes/Shepherd | September 16-29 | Libra (last week); Virgo (first week) |
| Knight/Hercules | August 16-29 | Virgo (last week); Leo (first week). |
| Chariot / Ursa Major | July 16-29 | Leo (last week); Cancer (first week). |
| Pilot/Ship | June 14-28 | Cancer (last week); Gemini (first week). |
| Hunter/Orion | May 14-27 | Gemini (last week); Taurus (first week) |
| Whale | April 13-26 | Taurus (last week); Aries (first week) |
The Upper Zodiac determines the global processes. And in this case it will be about individuals who can change the world and influence the society around them.
However, it is impossible to determine your belonging to the VZ sign only by date of birth. Reading the signs of the OT is the lot of experienced astrologers. Do not forget about this when reading the next horoscope.
The new 13th zodiac sign Ophiuchus: where did it come from?
The appearance of Ophiuchus in our life is nothing but an attempt to unite the Lower and Upper Zodiac into one circle. The pioneers of astrology began the unification of the Zodiacs from two points at which the Lower and Upper Zodiacs interact as much as possible: from the point of Ophiuchus and the point of Whale.
So in the media there was a version about the existence of the 13th and 14th sign of the zodiac.

Ophiuchus: characteristics of a man
Ophiuchus - those who have overcome their karma, having gone through a series of karmic reincarnations. Representatives of this zodiac have learned the lesson of cause and effect well, which allows them to take the next step: master the ideology and lead.
Classic Ophiuchus - Charles de Gaulle. It flashed brightly in the sky of history in 1940, not afraid to take responsibility for the fate of France. After 10 years, he went into the shadows. Figuratively speaking, it burned down like a phoenix to be reborn after oblivion, to unite the nation around itself again and lead it.
Ophiuchus men are always on the move and always free. Their freedom and movement cannot be limited, so as not to awaken all the worst that is in this sign. Do not forget that globally, the decade of Ophiuchus brings catastrophes, chaos, and many tragedies.
The road beckons Ophiuchus. On a subconscious level, Ophiuchus understands that stopping is like death for him, and this makes the Ophiuchus man continue his journey: from city to city, from woman to woman.
Often a male serpent leaves without looking back and without saying goodbye. He simply disappears from the lives of people close to him. And then it returns as if there was no pause in the relationship at all. What is even more surprising, the representatives of this sign are jealous and cannot accept the fact that during their absence, someone else may appear in the life of the second half.
He is charming and easy to talk to. But he will never spray himself on people who are not attractive to him. At the same time, Ophiuchus tend to report their dislike loudly and disregarding the feelings of others.
Surprisingly, with a fairly strong charisma, Ophiuchus are prone to depressive moods, especially in their youth.
Fate is constantly testing the Ophiuchus man. But the more tragic the story of the fall of Ophiuchus, the more strength he will apply to correct the situation and the more enchanting his return will be.
By and large, Ophiuchus will always balance between a bright holiday and an icy void, slipping into one or another abyss and invariably reborn. But the price of rebirth will depend on the spiritual purity and morality of the Ophiuchus man.

All of the above applies to women of this sign.
Ophiuchus: compatibility with other zodiac signs
The zodiacs that are able to withstand Ophiuchus are marked in the table below. Ophiuchus women have more choice, since the beautiful representatives of this zodiac are slightly softer than strong male serpents.
The discovery of American scientists caused a lot of questions from Internet users who are interested in: Ophiuchus 13th sign of the Zodiac, dates of birth, characteristics. Read about all this in our material.

A message published on the educational portal of the space agency says that the need to introduce a new sign is due to a change in the position of stars in the modern sky in relation to their placement in the days of ancient astronomers.
Scientists claim that the familiar structure of the Zodiac was created in ancient Babylon. Moreover, even then it was known about the 13th sign, however, due to the fact that in the calendar based on the phases of the moon, the year was divided into 12 months, for convenience, they decided to use only 12 signs of the Zodiac. And they gradually forgot about Ophiuchus.
Ophiuchus 13th sign of the zodiac: from what to what date?
Astronomers have calculated that the Sun passes along the ecliptic through the constellation Ophiuchus from November 30 to December 18, and the sign looks like the Latin letter U, crossed out by a wavy line. Note that in the case of the introduction of a new sign, the dates of the "old" signs of the Zodiac will change.

Ophiuchus 13th sign of the Zodiac, characteristic:
The symbol of this sign is a snake, but the snake is not simple, but biting its own tail. The mission of people born under the sign of Ophiuchus is selfless service to people, because they are less busy with their own problems than with those of others. The true Ophiuchus does not follow a blindly predetermined fate, but boldly steps over it and acts in his own way. And difficulties only inflame Ophiuchus, forcing him to take on overcoming them with tripled energy.
The partners of a person born under the sign of Ophiuchus will have a hard time - after all, he can disappear forever from the life of a loved one, without even leaving a message. And sometimes he simply cannot be recognized - Ophiuchus, like his symbol (snake), can completely shed his old skin and be reborn beyond recognition. They can bring both immense joy and soul-destroying grief to their loved ones.
Ophiuchus themselves cannot be called positive people, because the thought “why live, because you still die anyway?” relentlessly pursues them. As a result, a high percentage of suicides among Ophiuchus people. But at the same time, even after the darkest period of life, they can be reborn like a Phoenix bird from the ashes, striking those around them with immense fun and the ability to live “to the fullest”. And in terms of craving for adventure, they have no equal among representatives of other signs of the Zodiac.
At the same time, scientists do not exclude the appearance of the 14th sign of the zodiac - Whale in the future. This sign was first talked about back in the 1970s.

The symbol of Ophiuchus is a serpent, which consists of two parts: the "Serpent's Tail" and the "Snake's Head". The thirteenth zodiac constellation is located inside the Serpent and occupies a huge celestial area.
For the first time the idea to change the traditional zodiac constellations voiced by American scientist Park Kunkle. The thirteenth sign of the zodiac was named Ophiuchus. The proposal for changes in the zodiac circle and the introduction of Ophiuchus into it was not supported by all of Kunkl's colleagues.
In the astrological world, the 13th sign of the zodiac is far from new. A calendar with 13 months of the year was developed back in ancient world, and each month had exactly 28 days in it, which was 4 weeks. This calendar, however, was not accepted due to the loss of time that happened every month. Thus, the 13th sign of the Zodiac was forgotten for a while.
Ophiuchus in the horoscope
Astrologers have been studying the charts of the starry sky for several years now, giving the constellation Ophiuchus a special mystical meaning. It is believed that people born between November 27 and December 17 can take Ophiuchus as their zodiac sign.
It is believed that people born under the constellation Ophiuchus are endowed with completely opposite character traits. They can be wise and stupid at the same time, sometimes one can only admire their courage, but sometimes they behave like real cowards.
Astrologers say that for a long time the ancient magicians hid from ordinary people the very fact of the existence of the 13th constellation. According to the myths, the knowledge and characteristics of Ophiuchus were inherited by the Aryans from some mysterious and highly developed vanished civilization.
In the ancient Aryans, Ophiuchus in the zodiac circle is identified with the king of the universe, Zakhak, who, by giving, was tempted by the forces of darkness. Cannibal snakes sat on the shoulders of this mythical creature, and subsequently this god became a symbol of grief and misfortune.
Many peoples believed that during the period when the Earth is in the power of Ophiuchus, it makes no sense for a person to hope for divine help. At this time, God does not hear people's prayers.
The constellation Serpent for ancient people symbolized fear and despair, it personified evil and deceit. Apparently, it was for these reasons that Ophiuchus was never included in the zodiac circle.
People born under the sign of Ophiuchus
Ophiuchus gives happiness and a serene life to some people, and endless grief and suffering to others. Ophiuchus people are real hostages of their fate.
They are unable to exert any influence on their fate, everything has already been decided for them in heaven. Often people born under this sign manage to achieve in life high altitudes and material well-being.
Ophiuchus is extremely a dangerous person, and it is better not to quarrel with him. These people do not forgive the hostile attitude towards themselves.
At the same time, Ophiuchus, like no other, knows how to be a devoted and reliable comrade, ready to help in difficult times.
The characteristic of the 13th sign of the Zodiac is rather complicated, and the fate of Ophiuchus people is always difficult. Many of them can become slaves to bad habits, which will be extremely difficult for them to overcome.
Ophiuchus is the only sign for which inaction is simply contraindicated. It must be in constant motion. Life for them is a constant struggle and an endless journey.
Published on 23.09.16 16:58Ophiuchus, 13th sign of the Zodiac and new signs of the Zodiac by months 2016: Russian astrologers commented on NASA information about changes in the horoscope.
Ophiuchus: from what to what date?
Recently appeared in the media information about the new sign of the Zodiac discovered by NASA specialists - Ophiuchus - caused heated discussions in the press and social networks.
According to her, the zodiac circle really consists of 13 constellations, not 12, and over time this interval can change.
"And in Astrology, both in ancient and modern, the Zodiac consists of 12 signs. But! The sign of Ophiuchus, as it were, "with one foot" enters the Zodiac, being a kind of projection of the exit to the big Cosmos - the door to another Heaven. Ophiuchus plays the role in the birth chart for those who have already passed their earthly Path, and they are no longer interested in the world of people and things, life and interpersonal relationships little things in life," Tamara Globa emphasized.
She considers such people "not overwhelmed by passions", people "of the absolute spirit or on the way to it."
“Therefore, Ophiuchus, as it were, exists - and, at the same time, does not exist in the Zodiac, but we always take it into account. But not as a separate independent sign, under which, according to some, they are born. People whose planets or other indicators are associated with the projection of Ophiuchus in the birth chart, often experience its influence on their lives, and their aspirations are often, as it were, above the vanity, in search of the truth. life paths," she says.
The specialist emphasizes that in both astronomy and astrology, the astronomical year begins at the same time - March 21 (sometimes 20), and only the boundaries of the constellations and signs of the Zodiac differ.
"And for astrologers, and for astronomers, and for a person living on Earth, regardless of whether he knows these sciences or not - this is an astronomical clock - the beginning of the countdown. The star and time dial, which continues its work, regardless of the disputes around deviations in time. Therefore, the 12-character system is the most convenient and will take place for more than one century," Globa added.
13 sign of the Zodiac Ophiuchus: the opinion of Pavel Globa and Vitaly Osipova
In turn, Pavel Globa has long recognized Ophiuchus and believes that, as a rule, extraordinary personalities and even psychics are born under this sign. According to him, Paracelsus, Suvorov, Paganini, Kaganovich, Blok and Nostradamus were Ophiuchus. He noted that the 13th sign of the Zodiac more often affects world events, and not on a person's horoscope.
"The appearance of planets between Scorpio and Sagittarius can lead to large-scale changes on a planetary scale," he said.
However, according to astrologer Vitaly Osipova, the excitement around Ophiuchus will soon subside, and any significant changes this will not follow.
“Everything depends on the (astrological) school, in the classical one Ophiuchus will not be taken into account, everything was calculated there long ago by Ptolemy many centuries ago,” she told a journalist from RIA Novy Den.
Osipova is sure that those who previously took Ophiuchus into account in their forecasts will continue to take it into account, but other astrologers can also "take it into service". At the same time, she does not see any particular practical need for Ophiuchus, explaining that astrology is an abstract science, and a prediction for a person can be made not only by his birthday.
"Everything is very relative. It all depends on thinking. If a person associates himself instead of Aries with Taurus, he will definitely find these new features in himself. If they tell a person that he is Ophiuchus, he will definitely find something for himself from him. That's all psychology by and large. In the end, everything comes from the head, "she is sure.
