Zodiac

The Zodiac refers to an imaginary belt in the sky that extends approximately 8 degrees north and south of the ecliptic, which is the path the Sun appears to take through the celestial sphere over the course of a year. This belt comprises twelve specific constellations, known as zodiac signs, each representing a segment of the sky that the Sun, Moon, and planets traverse. The twelve signs of the Zodiac are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. Each sign corresponds to specific dates within the calendar year, forming the basis of astrological analysis and horoscope predictions. The Zodiac has been used in various cultures and traditions for centuries as a means of interpreting human behavior and personality traits based on the position of celestial bodies at the time of an individual’s birth.
