The origin of the zodiac

In astronomy, the earth's orbit around the sun is called the ecliptic. The width of the ecliptic is 18 degrees, and its orbit around the sun is 360 degrees. The ecliptic plane includes the orbits and constellations of all planets. There is a constellation every 30 degrees, a total of twelve constellations, called "Zodiac".

"Zodiac" is an Arabic astrological term, which originated in Babylon. Babylonians observed these constellations for a long time, determined the ecliptic through observation, and divided the ecliptic into 12 equal parts, each equal part was 30 degrees, which was called 1 segment. The sun travels around the ecliptic in 12 months/cycle, so it travels on the ecliptic every month 1 segment.
