CONSTELLATION is English "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:

The Chinese Zodiac has the same free translation in English and Chinese astronomical vocabulary. In Ying Ying's dictionary, it is explained in more detail: "one twentieth of the zodiac", which means "twelve ecliptic divisions".

Therefore, the twelve constellations in astronomical calendar and astrology are different in practical sense. If you are not an astrologer, you should compare your date of birth with the actual dates of the twelve constellations in the astronomical calendar to see which constellation you belong to.
