Some people believe that there's a 13th zodiac sign called Ophiuchus. An astrologer explains whether there's any truth to that theory.
Ophiuchus (/ ˌ ɒ f i ˈ juː k ə s /; Ancient Greek: Ὀφιοῦχος, lit. 'Serpent-bearer'; astrological symbol ⛎︎) has been proposed as a 13th sign of the sidereal and tropical zodiac. The idea appears to have originated in 1970 with Steven Schmidt's suggestion of a 14-sign zodiac, also including Cetus as a sign.

Ophiuchus (/ ˌ ɒ f i ˈ juː k ə s /) is a large constellation straddling the celestial equator. Its name comes from the Ancient Greek ὀφιοῦχος ( ophioûkhos ), meaning "serpent-bearer", and it is commonly represented as a man grasping a snake.
Ophiuchus is not the 13th sign of the zodiac. This is because the signs of the zodiac are only named after constellations; they don't correspond to which constellation the sun is actually in. Planetariums frequently note that it would be a sign if the signs did line up with the constellations, but only an insignificant number of astrologers actually take the stars into account.
Theta Ophiuchi, Latinized from θ Ophiuchi, is a multiple star system in the equatorial constellation of Ophiuchus.It lies on the "right foot" of the serpent-bearer, just southwest of Kepler's Star, the nova of 1604.
