Although Ophiuchus also passes through the zodiac, it is not in the zodiac used in astrology. The zodiac in astrology only refers to the twelve equally divided regions of the zodiac, which is different from the zodiac in astronomy. After the International Astronomical Union standardized the constellation boundary in 1928, there were 13 constellations on the ecliptic.

More than 2000 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190 ~ 120 BC) divided the ecliptic into twelve segments, with spring divided into zero, and every 30 degrees from the vernal equinox (that is, the zero degree of the ecliptic) as a palace, taking the main constellations contained in each palace at that time.
