Do all the planets follow roughly the path of the old 12 zodiac constellations in the sky?

why so for this??



and do the constellations follow the path of the sun in the sky or near it ?



please describe and explain.



Thanks for your answres!Do all the planets follow roughly the path of the old 12 zodiac constellations in the sky?
all previous answers have missed out that neptune has an eccentric orbit, the other 7 planets and pluto all orbit anti-clockwise in the same plane and pass throught every constellation, but neptune was hit hard by a large object a few billion years ago and goes clockwise in a alightly different plane so does not pass through all the constellations in every neptunian year
All the planets orbit the sun within the same plane (give or take a few degrees), including the Earth.

The Earth's axis is tilted to that plane by 23.5 degrees, so it cuts across our sky at an angle (called the "ecliptic").



So from our point of view, all the planets appear in our sky pretty close to that ecliptic line.



The constellations are not in orbit around the sun.

They are the patterns that people see in the random arrangement of distant stars.

The 12 zodiac constellations are just the ones that humans saw along that ecliptic line in our sky.

The 88 official constellations are all over the entire sky - they rise and set like any astronomical object does due to the Earth's rotation. And they change their location in our sky due to the Earth's orbit around the sun.



But the constellations have absolutely no relationship to our solar system or our perspective on the planetary orbits.Do all the planets follow roughly the path of the old 12 zodiac constellations in the sky?
All the planetary orbits (of the 8 recognised planets) lie in the same plane, or very close to each other. Because of this, they will always appear to be following similar paths in the sky.



From the Earth point of view, this means that the planets and the Sun follow similar paths in the sky. The planets are never far from the ecliptic.
Yes



This is because the planets formed with an orbiting disk around the sun. Different parts of the disk coalesced into planets. This is why all the planets are on the same plane.Do all the planets follow roughly the path of the old 12 zodiac constellations in the sky?
Some times,planets get into a 13th Constellation known as Ophucus

The Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius):

Represent extroversion and energy. They GO after what they want. They have a tendency towards dominance, generosity, popularity, and selfishness. (it is possible to be generous and selfish at the same time) They can also be risk takers, and lean towards optimism. Pessimistic Fire Signs are a rare breed. I have yet to meet one.



The Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn):

Represent inner strength and logic. (can withstand hardships in life that others could not) They are the practical signs, logically in control of their emotions ... most of the time. Have a tendency to brood, dwell, yet solve their problems, be successful, determined, strong. They are realists so they have a tendency towards pessimism, but some can be optimists as well. It's like 60% - 40%.



The Water Signs (Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio):

Represent introversion and intuition. They WAIT for what they want to come to them. They are very intuitive about others emotions. They are the signs of emotion. No matter how calm they appear on the surface, there is a world of emotions swirling underneath. Especially true for Scorpio. They also adapt to change very well.



The Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius):

Represent communication and mental activity. All Air Signs are naturally popular because they are friendly and social. They are also the most mentally active signs, versus emotional. They are easy going, adapt to change, have many friends, but have a tendency to be easily led, indecisive and unemotional.

What are the saddest zodiac break ups, between which signs ?What are the most sad zodiac break ups ?
Saddest is probably Cancer and Capricorn. They feel a responsibility toward each other, and there's usually long term ties there.What are the most sad zodiac break ups ?
A Libra and an Aquarius. Im at the end in my relationship and we been together almost ten yrs. I don't know why but we just keep clashing. Arguments like hell and mutual physical violence occurs too. Were both mars in Scorpio and we go at each other like two pitbulls fighting. I can't imagine being without her but were unhealthy for each other. I can't no matter how much I convince myself leave her and I don't know why we have such a strong bond. We just can't let go!!! UGH this is the worse thing I've ever been through in my life. I wanna just run awayWhat are the most sad zodiac break ups ?

Do you consider your dates zodiac sign when you date them?

I do. Because one day i looked at traits of my zodiac sign and it was dead on accurate about me.



so now i look for girls on facebook whos zodiac sign is compatible with mine.Do you consider your dates zodiac sign when you date them?
No, never!
Never. The variety within a sign is as big as the number of people within that sign.

Peace.Do you consider your dates zodiac sign when you date them?
I don't participate in the mass cultural delusion that the sun's apparent position relative to arbitrarily锘?defined constellations at the time of my birth somehow affects my personality.
I would look at it to see just for fun, but other than that I wouldn't take that much notice. If I like him, I like him, regardless of what star signs reckon. :-)Do you consider your dates zodiac sign when you date them?
No way, that a load of bullsh*t to me
No, I don't because it's a crock.
no i don't

What do you think of the zodiac sign aquarius?

If you seem to get along with them, what's your sign?

w00t.What do you think of the zodiac sign aquarius?
Aquarians is smart and friendly, I have a some friends who's zodiac sign is aquarius.. they are very attractive but yet they have some feelings of sensitiveness and they stick to what is your comment about them. and sometimes they are so serious and you can't understand what they are thinking. they are so deep person. I'm an Aries.





Here is the additional I got from internet:







Aquarius Personality:

Aquarians present themselves in one of two ways. One on hand, you鈥檒l see someone who is shy, and quiet. On the other, an Aquarian can be boisterous, eccentric, and energetic. Both are deep thinkers with a love of helping others. Highly intellectual, this is a sign of fierce independence that prizes intuition tempered with logic. Both personality types have an uncanny ability to see both sides of an argument without prejudice, making them excellent problem-solvers. While very much attuned to the energies around them, Aquarians have a deep need to take time out alone and away to rejuvenate themselves. The keyword for this sign is imagination. The Aquarian can see a world of possibilities even when there appears to be none.

What is the astronomical significance of zodiac constilations?

this question is from the BC science probe textbook, please answer at a grade 9 level as soon as possibleWhat is the astronomical significance of zodiac constilations?
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?
None.

"constilations" is not an English word.

What effect does the Sun have on you and what is your zodiac sign?

Random question yah, I know and probably has no connection to astrology but why not. Calm down, take a break, eat a cookie :D



Im a Leo and the sun actually makes me feel rather tired!What effect does the Sun have on you and what is your zodiac sign?
Gives me a tan, vitamin D, and a good mood over all. A sunny day is almost always a good day.
I like admiring sunny days... from a cool, comfortable position in the shade. Too much brightness gives me a terrible headache, too much heat makes me feel sick and dizzy, and too much sun exposure burns my skinsies like the dickens. I wasn't really cut out for frolicking around in the sun. But I love a nice, sunny, breezy day.



PiscesWhat effect does the Sun have on you and what is your zodiac sign?
Fun indeed ;)

I'm a Capricorn Sun and I'm not really fond of staying in the sun too long, starts to make me feel hot and tired, though I don't outwardly complain about it of course. :P



PS: The tan is kinda nice though! ^_^



%26lt;JJ%26gt;
I'm a Scorpio. The sun makes me feel sick, like nauseous, headache, stomachache, tired, fatigued, and irritates my skin. I like the heat/sun but I can't be out for long, I need to stay covered up with pants and long sleeve shirts.What effect does the Sun have on you and what is your zodiac sign?
I'm Aries and Pisces. :D

And sometimes it depends on how it is outside,

but mainly I love being in the sun and it just sort of makes me want to slow down and relax.
I love the sun. Gives me a tan and makes me feel great.

Just gotta stay hydrated and know when enough is enough.
I'm a Scorpio! The sun makes me either sleepy, grumpy or anxious. Just depends, I guess. :)
