I'm fascinated by this thirteenth sign. The Mayans had one, as well as their "Day Out of Time".

Well it makes sense for me [who was a Cancer/Leo cusp but is now apparently full Cancer]... and a bit for Malte [Gemini who is now Taurus], but really, one could read ANY sign's horoscope and find a connection...

That's true. I've noticed the same thing.

Astrology is weird. Heliocentric astrology holds some interesting insights, Celtic astrology, Chinese... To me, it's like the blueprint to a house. But if that blueprint is to a different project all together ... maybe I've built the wrong house?

I find three things the most interesting about this:
1) Perhaps our astrology mutates as time goes on.

2) so much of our personality relies on what we tell ourselves we are, and what we apply to others' based on misconception.

3) the omission of the thirteenth sign and its role.

Okay, a tiny tiny bit of digging revealed this.

Information is scarce.

That's the thing. I thought you'd be really into being the thirteenth sign. NEAT!!
