Precession

Earth wobbles (pinterest image)
Because the Earth wobbles like a spinning top ("precession"),
it no longer aligns with the constellations of the zodiac on the dates that were established in ancient times.
If one believes in this astrological originalism, I'm a Libra, not a Scorpio (chart, below right).

Cosmo - Scorpio:
Emotional, imaginative and intense, Scorpio is like the big, bad elder sister of the Water sign crew...They are ruled by two planetary influences...- Pluto (god of the Underworld) and Mars (god of War)… and that kinda’ sums them up. Dark and dangerous. Drawn to what lies beneath, to the mysteries of life, to the ‘underbelly’ of humanity, and also able to fight to the death if they feel wronged/betrayed /abused. Scorpions: Drake, Kendall Jenner, Winona Ryder, and Ciara.
Cosmo - Libra:
Librans are best known for their love of balance...They are idealistic perfectionists, and they invest most of their energy in keeping their environment and lives lovely, tidy and orderly. An astrological Marie Kondo! However, Libra is also ruled by Venus, a planet which holds sway over beauty, the arts, love and pleasure. This makes them wonderful lovers, extremely aesthetic and into beautiful things, and certainly born with a taste for ALL of the finer things in life. Librans are big on self-indulgence. Librans: Kim Kardashian, Bella Thorne, Cardi B, Gwen Stefani and Halsey.
It's like taking a DNA test and finding you have identified with the wrong tribe.

Someone needs to do a book on what young people believe and how it all fits together: astrology, climate change is gonna kill us all in 10 years, socialism is superior, social-media "likes" mean success in life. I'd buy that book.
