Extended data

The stars in Libra have been recognized since ancient times, but Ptolemy did not regard them as independent constellations. In Ptolemy constellation, the star of Libra belongs to Scorpio's claw, Libra α is Scorpio's north claw, Libra β is Scorpio's south claw.

People regard the stars as a steelyard, symbolizing fairness. But it wasn't until Caesar's time in 1 century that the Romans discovered that when the sun moved to this constellation, it was around the autumnal equinox, so it was painted independently.

Now, due to the precession of the earth, the autumnal equinox has moved to Virgo in the west. In the present era, the sun runs from 1 65438+1October1to165438+/October 23rd every year.
