Constellation Dates Number of Days
Sagittarius Dec 18 - Jan 18 32
Capricornus Jan 19 - Feb 15 28
Aquarius Feb 16 - Mar 11 24
Pisces Mar 12 - Apr 18 38
Aries Apr 19 - May 13 25
Taurus May 14 - Jun 19 37
Gemini Jun 20 - Jul 20 31
Cancer Jul 21 - Aug 9 20
Leo Aug 10 - Sep 15 37
Virgo Sep 16 - Oct 30 45

I am no longer a Scorpio. Strangely, I don't want revenge.

7. That's the spirit. Absolute surrender!
Horse shit eh? I guess when Andromeda comes too close we (folks billions of years from now and perhaps including reanimated forms of us to pay off Bush's debts) will care about those stars more.

14. Dear fellow not so ex Scorpio
I felt the same way. But I also did not feel joy exacting revenge like a true Scorpio would.

I feel I need training wheels in the land of Virgos.
