How can you have a star sign if you don't know the sign you were born in because the months reduce every year in 29 and 30 day months? And every 30 years your sign goes to the earlier sign aswell. Unless you look at the stars and can calculate backwards to the date of birth. Or you could just ask a psychic? Unless you can hear spirit yourself? Also the orbit and earth's tilting has been changing since time began so that would need to be figured in; because it depends on which sign it spins to face first as to the order of birth date.

However, the detection of three cases outside China is worrying. We calculate, based on flight and population data, that there is only a 1 in 574 chance that a person infected in Wuhan would travel overseas before they sought medical care. This implies there might have been over 1,700 cases in Wuhan so far, there are many unknowns, meaning the uncertainty range around this estimate goes from 190 cases to over 4,000. But the magnitude of these numbers suggests that substantial human-to-human transmission can not be ruled out. Heightened surveillance, prompt information sharing and enhanced preparedness are recommended.

Teeth record environmental variation based on the climate, even where you're growing up, that's possible because when you're growing, your teeth you actually lock in a record of the chemistry of the water and the food that you're eating and drinking.
