Zodiac Sun Signs
Have you ever wondered about the origin of the Zodiac sign?
What is a zodiac sign?
The zodiac signs or sun signs form a circle that surrounds the sun. As the earth moves around the sun in an orbit it passes through twelve star constellations, or signs, at different times of the year. Each constellation is named after a likeness of its formation.
A Brief History of Astrology
Around the end of the fifth century, Babylonian Astronomers divided the star system into twelve equal signs of thirty days each. Prior to this, there had been thirteen signs based on the moon’s twenty-eight-day cycle. Originally the signs were coordinated following the seasons.
How did the zodiac signs get their names?
The sun and zodiac signs were named in relation to the star constellations that were seen in the sky at that time and the animal they most resembled. The stories related to the associated constellations and how each one came into being highlighted that zodiac’s personality traits, strengths and the challenges they would need to overcome by finding a balance between the heavens/ stars and the earth. The human condition was said to be the link between above and below, as above so below, with us humans the meeting point of experience.
Personal, Zodiac, Star or Sun Signs?
Our Zodiac Star or Sun Sign is determined by the planets and their positioning when we take our first breath. Your zodiac sign is based on the position of the sun at the time of your birth hence both the name of the sun sign and zodiac sign is fully transferable with the same meaning. Each sign has corresponding traits and crystals that are aligned with and support that specific star sign.
The order of the sun signs is Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
The difference between Western and Eastern Zodiac
The Western zodiac is centered around your month of birth and the Chinese zodiac is focused around the year you were born. Both systems contain twelve signs, animals, associated elements and a base in folklore.
Why Crystals can support you
to enhance your zodiac abilities
Each crystal is known for its own properties. Each Sun Sign or Zodiac has specific personality traits, its own strengths, and weaknesses. Crystals have their own energies, vibrations and resonate with different emotions and have been known to promote certain qualities in their owners. By tuning in and being aware of your zodiac and its traits, we can unite a combination of crystals to enhance your strengths and talents and develop innate gifts, to initiate the energy of centered balance.
