The sky along with the stars has always played as a prominent natural resource for humans. It supply's accurate information regarding the set schedule stars operate on, therefore some people use the stars as a calendar. The idea of utilizing stars initiated approximately 17,000 years ago, the time in history when the cave walls operated as a place to store valuable info. That's where you would find the world's first star maps. Soon after the cave wall technique around the end of the 5th century BC, Babylonian astronomers divided the ecliptic into 12 equal "signs", by analogy to 12 schematic months of 30 days each.

The 12 signs correspond with the 12 constellations which are provided visually below. Meghan Bartley a senior writer for space.com states, "Ironically if you are born under a particular sign the constellation it is named for is not visible at night instead the sun is passing through making it a daytime constellation."Majority of people infer all star constellations appear at night... in reality your birth month determines what constellations correspond with you. Your sign also corresponds with traits and characteristics you are likely to have, despite the fact some believe they're simply stereotypes. What follows is a list of the signs of the modern zodiac (with the ecliptic longitudes of their first points), where 0° Aries is understood as the vernal equinox, with their Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, and Babylonian names.
