| The zodiac is the path of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The signs of the zodiac, also known as "sun signs" indicate which sector the sun was in at the time of birth. The zodiac signs follow a pattern that never changes: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. The sun is in one sign or another, it cannot be in two signs at the same time. Each of these twelve signs represents certain positive as well as negative characteristics in human behavior. Further, these signs are thirty degree segments of the zodiac and are associated with four elements: fire, earth, air and water and three modalities: cardinal, fixed and mutable. We have all twelve signs of the zodiac in our horoscope, and their effect is determined by the position of the planets in the signs and the interaction between the zodiac signs and the houses of the horoscope.
