signs of the zodiac

Horoscope's twelve divisions

The signs of the zodiac are the twelve divisions of the celestial sphere through which the sun appears to travel over the course of a year: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.

Each sign spans roughly one month and is associated in astrology with particular personality traits and tendencies.

What's your sign? asks which constellation the sun occupied at one's birth.
