It is the zone in the sky where the Sun, Moon, and planets can be seen. The Sun, Moon, and planets move from constellation to constellation over time, but never stray from the zodiac into other parts of the sky. You can never see the Sun in the big dipper for example.What is the astronomical significance of zodiac constilations?
The ecliptic is the apparent path the Sun travels over the course of a year. The ecliptic passes through thirteen constellations. Twelve of these comprise the zodiac, with the Sun spending from eight days (Scorpius) to six weeks (Virgo) in each. The Moon and planets are normally found close to the ecliptic, but can occasionally fall outside of the twelve zodiacal constellations.What is the astronomical significance of zodiac constilations?
