The Signs in Astrology
The astrological zodiac, also called the tropical zodiac, is a complete 360-degree circle divided into twelve sectors of 30 degrees each. Every sector corresponds to one zodiac sign.
The signs begin at the vernal point, 0 Aries, and continue through the final degree of Pisces.
Each sign has one or more ruling planets. The ruler acts as the sign’s governing principle, shaping how its symbolism tends to express itself.
