Two thousand years ago the night sky looked completely different, and so when you get right down to it, the Greek conceptions of star signs as related to birth dates are grossly inaccurate for today's day and age. It's called the Line of Procession: back then the sun didn't set in Taurus, but in Gemini. A September 24 birthday didn't mean you were a Libra, but a Virgo. And there was a thirteenth zodiac constellation, Ophiuchus the Serpent Bearer, which rose between Sagittarius and Scorpio for only four days.The reason it's all off kilter? The earth's axis wobbles. Life isn't nearly as stable as we want it to be.
Two thousand years ago, the positions of stars in the night sky were very different from what we see today, leading to inaccuracies in ancient Greek zodiac interpretations. The Greek system was based on fixed star positions that have shifted due to the precession of the equinoxes. Consequently, a person born on September 24 would be categorized as a Virgo instead of a Libra, contrary to modern astrological beliefs.
