Interesting. So you're saying that we'd need to add a new sign because there is a constellation in the sky today that wasn't visible 5000 years ago? That's pretty neat if I understand it correctly.
In case my question wasn't clear, I was only asking about the impact of the weather when a baby is born, and not about astrology. The only link to astrology is that the star positions change throughout the year.
Test your hypothesis. If it’s valid, you can make observations about people and from those you will be able to reliably predict their birthdate. Publish your results.
