Edit: I accidentally refreshed the page and it offered alternative questions for ID validation, such as high school of graduation and SSN. But it's still absurd to expect someone to even humor the premise of the prompt.

At my date of birth, the sun was in Ophiuchus

Dude. NSFW.

It’s just doing a compatibility check.

I really hate the MIlogin questions, sometimes I fail to answer correctly for some stupid mistake and need to wait a couple of days to retry

Interesting. I wonder what the thinking is here? It's almost like a really poor manual password hash. Here's something derived from my date of birth. Store that instead of the actual date. Pretty weak though.

It is probably something to confuse automated systems. A person could figure out their astrological sign easily by knowing their birthday. A computer attempting to brute force attack would probably be less likely to know how to answer the question.

A person could figure out their astrological sign easily by knowing their birthday.

The best thing to do during a security check is to google how to know your astrology sign.
