What are the twelve constellations in China?

The twelve constellations in China are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.

Generally speaking, the constellation refers to the constellation of the sun, that is, taking the human on the earth as the center and seeing which constellation the sun is running in, we can say what constellation that person is. In fact, the origin of this constellation is different from that of the West and the East, and the arrangement of the lunar calendar is also different. More than 2000 years ago, Greek astronomer Baccus divided the ecliptic into 12 segments, with spring as 0 and every 30 degrees as a palace since the vernal equinox.

Named after the main constellations contained in the palaces at that time, including Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Lion, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. It is called the zodiac and has twelve constellations. Every baby born at the same time when the earth moves will always have some similar characteristics when he grows up, including behavioral characteristics.

The significance of the twelve constellations

In fact, the 12 constellation is consistent with China's ecliptic to some extent, but in western astrology, the constellation represents the position where the stars in the sky fall into the ecliptic when a person is born. Western astrology, China classical astrology, and China classical astrology, represented by seven strategies and four surpluses, all show from different levels that the position of celestial bodies when a person is born has a far-reaching impact on his innate character and talent, and will also affect his life development.

The zodiac is also called the zodiac. Besides the zodiac, there are many other constellations. The zodiac is the twelve regions in astrology that describe the sun passing through the zodiac on the celestial sphere. Although Ophiuchus also passes through the zodiac, it is not in the zodiac used in astrology. The definition of the zodiac in astrology only refers to the twelve equal parts of the ecliptic, which is different from the astronomical zodiac (the above contents are for reference only).
