Ophiuchus (Serpent Charmer) Poem by Mrudula Rani

Ophiuchus (Serpent Charmer)



Ophiuchus didn't leap into the furor of astrology kerfuffle anew,
Since NASA upheld its actuality
In the midst of appraisal of constellations
now and again churns dismay
Ophiuchus's ubiety across the net,
Causing anxiety and moil atwix astrology buffs.
Then NASA leaps into the melee to have its slay;
Citing astrology intuitive and
Imputing Babylonians for divvying year
Into twelve star signs in lieu of thirteen!

Védic astrology athwart pursues
Sidereal zodiac system: Jyotisha,
the science of light and punctilious.
The western astrology obeys tropical zodiac method
and are not about to leap out off its stasis for ophiuchus.
