In today’s world, many people dedicate their behaviours to horoscopes. Also known as zodiac signs, star signs are centred around an area in the sky known as zodiac. Zodiac is the annual path which follows the sun through star constellations. Earth’s concentric movements within the north and south celestial sphere allow astrologists to specify certain objects in the zodiac sky. This indicates one way into how horoscopes are read. In our solar system, we are surrounded by trillions of stars, but some are more special to us than others.
There are now 13-star signs in astrology. Depending on what year, month, date and time you were born in will depend on which zodiac sign you fall into.
