    Scientists define 13 constellations along the Sun's Path. Ophiuchus is the one which is not part of the traditional 12 signs of the Zodiac.

    Aquarius. Though Ophiuchus is called the 13th sign because it was found later, it is actually the tenth sign in the path of the Sun.


    "In fact, Ophiuchus is a Sun-sign in the Real Solar Zodiac, i.e. the Sun can be seen against the stars of Ophiuchus between 30th November and 17th December each year. [The dates of the cusps move a little from one year to the next, so sometimes they are quoted as 1st December to 18th December.] Aquarius, the Water Carrier, is the actual 13th, and last, sign of the Real Solar Zodiac."
