From bull to ram, I don’t feel the transformation. Scientists tell us that the Earth’s tilt has changed our view of the stars and therefore the signs under which we were born have shifted as well. Bull, once a Taurus always a Taurus and you can’t take that away from me.

There is nothing wrong with Aries, the ram, the first astrological sign in the Zodiac but I don’t identify with the Greek’s tradition of a golden ram rescuing Phrixos and taking him to the land of Colchis. I am not ruled by the planet Mars either.

Nope, I am Taurus. If that means changing my birthday, I will have to do that to keep my sign, the second one in the Zodiac, the bull. I am stubbornly stuck to it. I prefer being ruled by Venus. So Copernicus, get off my back and leave our signs alone.
