The origin of the Star Constellations

In ancient times it was noticed that some stars always remain in the same position. These stars have been connected to each other and the constellation has been given a name. A well-known example of this is the "Big Dipper", which you might know.

The origin of the zodiac

At that time the so-called zodiac was created as well. The people still assumed that the sun rotated in a circle around the earth and they divided this circle into twelve zones. This circle was called the zodiac and each of the twelve zones was assigned a constellation. When the sun moved into a certain zodiac, for example on December 22nd into the zodiac of Capricorn, then the children who were born then were automatically born with the zodiac sign Capricorn. So the signs of the zodiac corresponded with the related constellation.

The Horoscope

In the theory of stars, known as astrology, the Earth is seen as the centre of the planetary system. It is assumed that the stars have an influence on our lives. The positions of the celestial bodies can be used to make statements about the signs of the zodiac. These statements, for example about the characteristics of a sign of the zodiac, can be found in one's own horoscope. The horoscope is not scientifically verifiable, but the belief in the meaning of the stars is big and widespread.
