      Howya Ciano! My zodiac sign is Scorpio. There is a cool explanation behind zodiac signs. As the Earth takes 12 months to orbit the Sun, on Earth, it looks like the Sun moves through the sky. And the sun passes through 12 different constellations as we orbit the Sun. They are Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Gemini, Libra, Aquarius, Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

      So the reason I’m a Scorpio is because the Sun was in the constellation of Scorpio on my birthday (which, coincidentally, is tomorrow!). And you’re a Taurus as the Sun was in the constellation of Taurus during your birthday (which tells me you were born between April and May).

      However, astronomy and astrology are very different fields. Astronomy (which is what I do) is a science based on studying the Universe, while astrology is more based around predictions.
