Here are the new Astrological sign dates::




Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16.

Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11.

Pisces: March 11-April 18.

Aries: April 18-May 13.

Taurus: May 13-June 21.

Gemini: June 21-July 20.

Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10.

Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16.

Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30.

Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23.

Scorpio: Nov. 23-29.

Ophiuchus: Nov. 29-Dec. 17.  (Yep, this one is new)


Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20.


Lucky for me, since I am a Pisces and I am born on March 13, I didn't change.  If you changed, don't worry! Since you were BORN under that sign, that is already your personality!! And if you don't belive me, check this article out!
