Astrologists would likely be the most hit by this (),
In fact, Radio Nederland had an astrologist on a month or two ago when a Pluto-like object was discovered, and it was thought we'd have 10 planets, rather than 9. He was expansive, claiming that astronomers are now proving what astrologers have known all along, of course: that there are actually 12 planets, and we're playing catch-up. Of course, now that we're down to 8, the astrologers will probably shrug, complain about "blind scientists," and go on studying their charts that were out of date thousands of years ago. At least, such is my opinion, based on the fact that their first sign, Aries, is now several months into the year, instead of at its start, as it was when Babylon was staring at the skies.
