Stars Over Tokyo In 2017
What Does The Zodiac Have In Store For You?
Tired of being stuck in your sign? Want to change it up this year and express the real you? The question from the heavens is: why was the newest astrological sign, Ophiuchus, ignored for so long? This year, it's time for a change — and here's what we predict for you.
What we consider “new” star sign — Ophiuchus — has been known since the age of Ptolemy, but was hidden away. Until NASA reminded us about it back in early 2016, leaving millions around the globe with jaws dropped at the realization that they are no longer who they used to be. Congratulations to those born between Nov. 30 and Dec. 17 — you now have a new star sign! (And a new pronunciation to learn. It’s “oh-FEW-kuss,” ladies).
So what does this added sign Ophiuchus represent? Ophiuchus stands on the tail of Scorpio — unafraid. She holds a snake curling around her body. This sign is believed to be the prototype of the medical caduceus, as well as the rising serpent of mystic kundalini. In her, physics and metaphysics merge. Sexuality and regeneration lead the way. Ophiuchus is the sign of healers, artists, quantum science, medicine, musicians and enlightenment. Living longer and healthier is her speciality.
It’s time for Ophiuchus to be reinstated in the zodiac — and our Savvy Tokyo horoscope tells you what to expect in 2017. If you navigate your year by the stars, read on!
