There's a great divide in the world of horoscopes... many believe whole-heartedly in them... while others completely dismiss them.

But they've still prospered through thousands of years and even the non-believers like to read them sometimes.

By now, we've all heard about the supposed 'change' in the zodiac that occurred recently... and every article I read seems to say something different.

I'm not even someone who truly believes in the horoscope but I still read my Aquarius prediction faithfully everyday.

So with the potential shift in the zodiac -- apparently due to a shift in the earth's access -- I was horrified to learn that I may in fact... be a Capricorn.

I've done minimal research and now my head is swimming with information about stars and planets and mythology and seasons and Babylonians and I don't even believe in it all.

Whether or not the my sign changed, I'm also confused about why I even seem to care.

As someone who doesn't give her horoscope a second thought after I'm done reading, I sure seem to be having an identity crisis about the whole thing.

Either way... I think I'll hold off on that Aquarius tattoo for a few more years... or centuries.

By then.. it may have all changed again... or not. I'm still not sure.

I'm Dianne Colgan
