Western Astrology - Star signs and Zodiac Symbols
What Are the Western Zodiac Signs?

Western Zodiac Signs, also known as Star Signs, are the symbols of western astrology. And western astrology is based around one central guiding principle:

"As above, so below"

But what does this mean exactly?

In a nutshell, it means everything is linked. All that you do, think and say is not only shown in the stars, but is determined by them as well. Celestial phenomena either reflect or govern all human behavior.
Consequently, a reading of the stars can provide valuable insights into all aspects of your life. And that’s where the Zodiac comes in.

What’s the Zodiac?

The Zodiac is a circle made up of 12 equal parts, and it represents the apparent path taken by the sun in the sky throughout the course of a year. Each part corresponds to a stellar constellation through which the sun passes, and each has its own symbol.

You’ll probably recognize these symbols. They are the 12 signs of the Zodiac, commonly known as Star Signs. A year is divided into 12 parts, each represented by its own Zodiac symbol.

These signs are held to represent 12 basic personality types or characteristic modes of expression. With knowledge of your Zodiac Sign, you can find out a lot about yourself and your spiritual identity.
