What is the hidden constellation in the twelve constellations?

The hidden constellation Ophiuchus, also known as the 13th constellation, corresponds to the birth date range of165438+1October 29th-65438+February 18.

Ophiuchus is a real constellation. Ophiuchus in astronomy is one of the zodiac signs. Seen from the earth, it is located in the south of Hercules, north of Scorpio and Sagittarius, and west of the Milky Way. 1928, the international astronomical union (IAU) identified Ophiuchus as one of the thirteen constellations on the ecliptic at its international astronomical conference.

However, even so, Ophiuchus, which actually exists in astronomy, never belongs to the zodiac in western astrology. The difference between Ophiuchus and astrology has always been an old topic of debate among astrologers.

Why does Ophiuchus not exist in astrology?

A few years ago, many people discussed Ophiuchus on the Internet, calling it the thirteenth constellation after the twelve constellations, but in fact Ophiuchus never belonged to the zodiac in western astrology.

From the astrological point of view, the division of the zodiac in astronomy is meaningless to astrology. Now the zodiac mentioned in astrology is actually just a symbol, which does not correspond to the real constellation with the same name.

Astrology is a system to explain or predict people's fate and behavior through the relative position and movement of celestial bodies. The earliest ancient Babylonians imagined the whole universe as a big ball, and the trajectory of the sun on this big ball was called the ecliptic. At first, in order to show the position of the sun on the ecliptic, the ancients divided the ecliptic into 12 segments on average, and according to their initial observation results, they selected the 12 constellations that coincided with the 12 segments of the ecliptic as markers, which led to the origin of the names of the original 12 constellations.

With the development of astrology, the twelve constellations, which were originally used to indicate the position of the sun on the ecliptic, are gradually used to indicate the positions of other celestial bodies in astrology. Therefore, whether there are twelve constellations or thirteen constellations in astronomy, and how big and small the constellation range is, it has nothing to do with the astrological constellation system. The twelve constellations in astrology are just that scryer divides the zodiac into twelve equal parts and gives corresponding names to mark the positions of celestial bodies.

So Ophiuchus is the real constellation in the universe and the research object in astronomy, but it does not exist in astrology.
