All About Zodiac Signs

First and foremost, we need to answer the question, "What is a zodiac sign?" In both astrology and historical astronomy the zodiac is a circle of twelve 30 degree that are centered upon the ecliptic; the apparent path of the sun across the atmosphere over the year. Each sign has their own unique personality and traits to them. 

Another question people ask is who started this thing called the zodiac? It is said that the Babylonian's started the zodiac. The word zodiac derives from Latin, which in turn comes from Greek. It means "circle of animals."
