The origin of constellations

In ancient times, the stars scattered in the sky were connected by imagination in order to identify the direction and facilitate the observation of the sky. More than 2000 years ago, Greek astronomer Baccus divided the ecliptic into twelve segments to show the position of the sun on the ecliptic.

The spring is divided into 0, and every 30 degrees from the vernal equinox is a house. It is named after the main constellations contained in each house at that time, which are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Lion, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces in turn, and it is called the zodiac.

There are twelve constellations in all. Babies born when the earth moves to every fraction (constellation) will always have some similar characteristics when they grow up, including behavioral characteristics.
