The Astrology of Space
The Band of the Zodiac
In fact, this great plane divides all of the universe in
two sections or hemispheres containing those
constellations of stars above (north) the zodiac plane
and those constellations of stars below (south) this
plane. The ecliptic plane is also commonly divided
into twelve equal 30° sections, the signs of the zodiac.
We will ignore for now the argument as to whether the
12 signs of the zodiac fit the star constellations
bearing their names. Of the 89 common
constellations, these 12 zodiac signs have received
very much more attention than the remaining 77 or so
other constellation that are scattered about, above
and below the ecliptic plane.
