Potioncat:
I doubt it will really matter whether he was born in 59 or 60. If JKR 
had done a specific horoscope for the characters she would already be 
able to tell us the actual dates. Although she may have given them 
general traits for the sign they were born under.

Of course, it not being important wouldn't stop us from trying to work 
it out. We also know that Lupin was born in March of 59 or 60. He has 
to be the same year as Snape or he would have been in a different 
class. Now to find out when the rest of that year group have birthdays, 
and we can play a logic game to figure it out....sort of. 

There was a thread not too long ago about Trelawney's predictions. She 
described Harry in one lesson and suggested he was born mid-winter. As 
it turns out Riddle was born on New Year's Eve (New Year's Day?).  And 
the question was: was she actually "reading" LV? Along that line, what 
does it say that Snape and Riddle were born under the same sign?

I was going to make a joke about Venus being in Aguarius, (I know 
almost nothing about the zodiac) but everything I came up with 
was...well, not suitable for this group...at least, not under my own 
pen name.
