Find out the difference between astrology and astronomy, and how to easily search for the zodiac constellations by jumping between star groups in the sky. It`s fun to look skyward and know the stories that originated long ago, when people first gazed at the same star patterns we see today. The ancient stories once told to explain events and describe human emotions are just as appealing in modern times.
