The twelve signs of the zodiac represent equal divisions of the Sun's path across the celestial sphere over the course of the year.
According to astrology, celestial phenomena reflect or govern human activity on the principle of "as above, so below", so that the twelve signs of the zodiac are held to represent twelve basic personality types or characteristic modes of expression.
