Traditionally there have been 12 Zodiac Signs known to many of us. However, in January 2011, astronomer Parke Kunkle emphasized that due to changes in Moons gravitational force, there has been a shift in Earth’s axis and hence the changed position of stars gives rise to inclusion of 13th zodiac sign which has been named as ophiuchus. The new sign Ophiuchus has been positioned between Scorpio and Sagittarius.
Below is a comparison of dates falling under various signs from both 12 and 13 zodiac signs perspective:
