Zodiac Unveiled

The zodiac represents a specific region of the sky, approximately eight degrees north and south of the ecliptic, where the sun, moon, and visible planets reside. Ancient Babylonian astronomers were pivotal in defining the twelve zodiac signs, correlating them with the months of the year, and establishing a system that laid the groundwork for our understanding of celestial observations. Despite the historical intertwining of astrology and astronomy, the scientific observations made by these early astronomers remain significant.
