Astrologers Dont Need the 13th Zodiac Sign!

I was interviewed by GMA7 regarding Ophiucus, the alleged13th Zodiac Sign,
the segment will be aired on Monday January 17,between 6am and 8am @
Unang Hirit Channel 7.

The Ophiuchus issue is not new despite the alleged new scientific information.
Ophiucus is a constellation that ancient astrologers who were also astronomers already knew about. There is no 13th zodiac sign, it was not meant to be because though the constellations and the signs use the same names, they are not the same. Astrologers use the 12 zodiac signs not the 12 constellations.The zodiac signs are of equal sizes and is measured from the vernal point whereas the constellations are of unequal sizes. The ancients used this definition (they are aware of the precession of the eqinoxes) because this 360 degree circle divided by 12 equal signs is a reflection of the "Grand Design" in nature that bears the imprint of the "Divine Architect." Modern astronomers by focusing on the physical aspect cannot understand the "logos" behind astro-logy.

Astrology works for more than 2,000 years and it still works up to this very minute, there is no need for the 13th zodiac sign.

Kaye Shinker, one of my teachers have written a piece on this:

I think this is the official stand of the astrological community though some individual practitioners
view this differently.
