Trying to find a story from an old fantasy magazine?

Question

I once read a story in a fantasy magazine (bought in Canada but not necessarily published there) that was about a group of children with tattoos on their faces based on the alignment of the stars at their birth. One group was the Lion, another the Swan, there were a few more groups as well. The alignment dictated the persons 'class' for the rest of their lives. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I think it was an excerpt from a larger book and I'd like to read it, or at least re-read the story. I don't remember which magazine it was or exactly when, possibly in the late 1990's or early 00's. Sound familiar to anyone?? Thanks in advance!

You could try Realms of Fantasy Community Forums, someone should know the Title. Good Luck
