Did the twelve constellations really become thirteen constellations?

Many people have asked: Are there thirteen constellations? Or ask the meaning of Ophiuchus. In fact, there are eighty-eight constellations in the whole celestial sphere, and there are not only twelve constellations on the ecliptic, but also thirteen constellations. Strictly speaking, there are fourteen constellations.

Besides the familiar twelve constellations, the other two are Pisces and Ophiuchus. In fact, these two constellations only occupy a small part in the actual position of the ecliptic, unlike the other twelve constellations, almost all of them are included in the ecliptic.

In fact, no matter how many constellations there are on the ecliptic, this fact does not affect the basis of astrology at all. The fourteen constellations mentioned above are actually astronomical phenomena, and have nothing to do with the twelve constellations in astrology.

In astronomy, the English word for CONSTELLATION is "constellation", which means "constellation" and "constellation". The constellation in astrology is "constellation", which means "sign", "sign" and "symbol". There is such a translation in the English-Chinese dictionary: "Zodiac" is the same free translation as the English-Chinese astronomical vocabulary; In Ying Ying's dictionary, it is explained in more detail: "one twentieth of the zodiac", which means "twelve ecliptic divisions". As far as the "dictionary" is so important to human beings all over the world and must be correct, the constellations in astronomy and astrology are so clearly distinguished. Why do astronomers revise astrology? What's more, there is an explanation of the zodiac. For astrology, only the twelve constellations that are most widely distributed on the ecliptic are more meaningful. In fact, "Ophiuchus" is not a new discovery, and it has been recorded in poetry since 270 AD.

Astrology and astronomy are not the same sky. Astronomy observes all celestial phenomena, while astrology only regards the twelve constellations as a symbol, and divides the ecliptic plane of the whole celestial sphere into twelve equal parts, each named after a constellation. Therefore, no matter Ophiuchus or Pisces, no matter the change of actual celestial bodies, it will not change the influence of the twelve divisions.

Astrology is just astrology, and the twelve constellations are just a synonym. Their significance has already surpassed the astronomical status quo. They are twelve "signs". Let astrology and astronomy have different beautiful starry sky!
