Zodiac signs, often referred to as astrological signs, are a system of twelve distinct divisions that correlate with specific periods of the year and are commonly associated with particular personality traits and characteristics. This system is deeply rooted in astrology, an ancient belief that celestial bodies’ positions and movements influence human affairs and natural phenomena. Each zodiac sign is associated with one of the twelve constellations along the ecliptic, which is the apparent path the Sun takes across the sky throughout the year. The signs are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. People often identify with their zodiac sign and may seek insights into their behavior, relationships, and life path through horoscopes and astrological readings. While opinions on the accuracy and significance of zodiac signs vary widely, they continue to be a popular cultural phenomenon and a source of fascination for many.
