the difference is that the eastern zodiac, sidereal, is based specifically on the constellations, and was changed because the earth's position in spacehas shifted over time, and no longer lines up the exact same way as it did millions of years ago. plus, the new dates only affect people born after 2009.
the western form of the zodiac, tropical, is based on the seasons, elements, and dates. since these are remaining consistent, there's no need to change it. and considering that a) this "new revelation" has happened before, and b) most of the u.s. follows the tropical zodiac, nothing has changed for most people in this country. if the suddenly added a new sign to this system, elements and seasons will not have an even number of signs, which would throw off the alignment.
