The origin and division of the twelve constellations

The twelve constellations, or zodiac signs, are astrologically described twelve regions where the sun passes through the zodiac on the celestial sphere, including Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces, although Ophiuchus also passes through the zodiac.

However, it does not belong to the zodiac used in astrology. The definition of the zodiac in astrology only refers to the twelve regions equally divided on 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.
