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. http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~dolan/constellations/constellations/Ophiuchus.html [Added reference - McG] Aug 24 02, 6:25 PM

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." http://www.geocities.com/astrologyconstellations/ophiuchus.htm [Added reference - McG] Aug 14 07, 6:42 AM
