Ophiuchus, The 13th Zodiac

Actually, since the ancient times, there had been 13 zodiac signs instead of the 12 you know about today. But, the Babylonians abandoned the 13th sign cause apparantly, "13" is not a very auspicious number.

However, modern astronomers have added it back to the zodiac signs cause of some "gradual tilt of the Earth". Yeah, right. As though the Gaia had not been tilting for the past millenniums.

Anyways, I present you, the Ophiuchus:





















Looks like a Dark Mark.


I wonder who's the man and who's the serpent in this ominous looking constellation symbol.

Of all times, they chose this year to include in the 13th sign. And next year, it would be 2012, the end-date of the Mayan Long Count calendar. Sweet.

So if you're born between November 29 and December 17, congratulations, you're now a Death Eater. And to most of the people out there, my condolences, cause WE WILL BE CHANGING OUR STAR SIGNS!

Either way, looks like we're all doomed.
