How would you react to discovering that your astrological sign may not be what you always thought it was?
As the beneficiary of many life lessons, few things truly surprise me. But a recent astronomy lecture unexpectedly demolished a belief I’d never before realized was important. The jolt was interesting—and disconcerting.
Not one to closely follow astrology, I have nevertheless indulged in an entertaining online reading on the first of every month for the past, oh, 20 years. This history netted a data-empty yet anecdotal-filled set of experiences that somehow kept me reading every month, including this one. Deep questioning might have undermined my decisions about whether to buy electronics or sign a contract or travel on important business while Mercury was in retrograde. So, like suspending disbelief while enjoying a good movie, I accepted that I was a Libra. I’d seen my birth certificate. I was comfortable that the sign’s attributes of balance, peace, and tranquility were somehow innate to who I am as a person. Certainly seemed harmless enough.
When least expected during this otherwise enjoyable event, Dr. Comins revealed the misconception that there are not 12, but 13, astrology signs. I felt my eyebrows knit and my eyes blink as I saw the list. Nestled between Scorpius and Saggitarius sat Ophiuchus, resting with the insidious smile of a fourth Queen revealed on the river in a hand of Texas Hold ‘Em.
