00:00Your zodiac sign might not be what you think it is.
00:03Yes, you could have been reading the wrong horoscope your whole life.
00:07Why? Because the stars have shifted.
00:09So if you were born any time in the last two millennia,
00:12chances are your sun sign doesn't match the constellation the sun was actually in on your birthday.
00:17Here's why.
00:18Zodiac signs are based on where the sun is in the sky on your birthday,
00:22basically which constellation it lines up with.
00:25This system was logged in by the Babylonians around 2000 years ago.
00:29Over the last 2000 years, the Earth's axis has wobbled, a motion called precession by scientists.
00:35Imagine a spinning top slowly tilting over time.
00:38That wobble alters the alignment of the sun with the constellations.
00:41Fast forward two millennia and the sun isn't in the same spot anymore.
00:46The calendar of zodiac signs has actually shifted by almost an entire sign.
00:50So if you thought you were a Leo, chances are the sun was actually in Cancer when you were born.
00:55Sagittarius, you might really be a Scorpio.
00:58If we updated the zodiac to match today's sky, about 86% of people would have a completely different sign.

01:06Or has the universe just reassigned your cosmic identity?
