Zodiac

Throughout history people have attempted to explain personality traits or predict the future based on the time the individual was born. The belief in a link between a person’s birth date and their fate, vices, and virtues is one that occurs in one form or another in many cultures. Zodiac refers to the path the sun appears to travel as viewed from earth. The word has based expanded to mean any of the diagrams, constellations, and calculations based on this ideology.

The western zodiac is divided into twelve houses, each associated with a constellation. Each of these constellations has a pictorial representation associated with it. Below are the twelve signs of the zodiac, along with their dates in the Tropical Chart.
