What Does Your Zodiac Sign Say About You?

What Does Your Zodiac Sign Say About You?

Are you fascinated by the night sky? You’re in good company. For centuries, we’ve looked at the stars and wondered about their beauty and meaning in our lives. In fact, the study of astrology, specifically western astrology, has been part of human culture since ancient days. 

Whether you are a true believer or simply intrigued by how your personality and traits might be influenced by your star sign, astrology gives us an interesting window into the alignment of the stars and planets and their potential influence in our lives.

What are the Origins of the Zodiac?

The word “zodiac” taken from Latin and Greek roots, literally means “circle of little animals.” On the surface, astrology and the zodiac circle of signs is fairly straightforward. The 12 zodiac signs reflect the 12 lunar cycles that it takes for the sun to return to its original position in our solar system. Essentially, astrology uses the placement of planets and stars to provide insight into an individual’s psychology and predict key life events.

How to Tell Your Zodiac Sign?

Your zodiac or Sun sign is determined by the date of your birth and is thought to relate to your core personality traits. Your zodiac sign meaning includes a description of those core traits and how they relate to your life’s journey. What are the 12 Zodiac Signs? Read on to learn more about the signs and their meaning.
