with all the chaos over a 13th
house? sign? it may come as no surprise, there is more to come. A new planet seems to be on the verge of being "discovered" The name is Tyche (I'm assuming it's pronounced Tai Chi) but I can't be sure.

This is the picture with the article...prolly nothing to do with the story, but nice
Here's the article

snip to the end
He and Prof Matese first suggested Tyche existed because of the angle comets were arriving, with a fifth of the expected number since 1898 entering higher than expected.

However, Tyche - if it exists - should also dislodge comets closer to home, from the inner Oort Cloud, but they have not been seen.

If confirmed, the status and name of the new planet - which would become the ninth and potentially the largest - would then have to be agreed by the International Astronomical Union.

Currently named Tyche, from the Greek goddess that governed the destiny of a city, its name may have to change, as it originated from a theory which has now been largely abandoned.

Interesting that the timing of its confirmation of existence should be in about 2013.
