Ophiuchus the 13th Zodiac

When I heard there might be a 13th sign of the zodiac called Ophiuchus I nearly fell off the sofa.

What? Who? HOW? I need to know more.

Apparently Ophiuchus isn't completely new and recently, the debate surrounding its possible existence began circulating again in the media.

Nestled in between Scorpio and Sagittarius, it could potentially change the face of the zodiac as we know it.

They say Ophiuchus is the only zodiac sign that depicts a real man. ... Ophiuchus persons are extremely curious, open to change, passionate and very jealous too. Also other Ophiuchus personality traits include explosive temper, good humour, secretive, egotistical, thirst for knowledge and sexually magnetic.

Ophiuchus is sometimes called the 13th or forgotten constellation of the zodiac. The sun passes in front of Ophiuchus from about November 30 to December 18. And yet no one ever says they're born when the sun is in Ophiuchus. That's because Ophiuchus is a constellation – not a sign – of the zodiac.

So am I now Ophiuchus? 

Well, apparently Ophiuchans progress well through their life, and authority looks upon you positively (even though you refuse to blindly follow it and always seek the truth). 

You have a thirst for wisdom and knowledge, and would apparently make a great architect. You're known for your flamboyant sense of style and you love to dress in bright colours. 

Also, fun fact: Your lucky number is 12. Not 13. That would make too much sense. 

Ophiuchus is curious, open to change, a true visionary, and has a great sense of humour. 

"Ophiuchus’ are generally happy individuals who are truthful and honest, intellectual and clever, and full of charisma and creative talents," 

They can easily adapt to change, which is why they naturally hate routine, and they need a partner that understands their passion for exploring the world and sometimes living the life of a rolling stone.
