Horoscope

When I was younger, I loved horoscopes. I checked out what was in store for Libra each day.

The 12 zodiac signs are also constellations in the sky. Today in my Astronomy lab, I learned the astrological signs are determined by the constellation in which the sky appears on the date of your birth. So the range of the zodiac sign is the time frame the sun is in that constellation.

However, the earth's position in the sky changes, and the zodiac ranges we know are outdated. Using the computer program, I found out the sun was in Virgo the day I was born. So I'm technically not a Libra, but I feel like one. I always weigh in options and try to balance them.

This still isn't enough to make me check my horoscope everyday.
