When did horoscope signs start to exist?

Ophiuchus refers to what dates?
Some people refer to Ophiuchus the Serpent Bearer as the 13th or forsaken constellation of the zodiac. This is due to the sun’s annual passage through Ophiuchus from roughly November 30 to December 18. Nevertheless, nobody ever claims to have been born while the sun was in Ophiuchus.
How do astrological signs work? The 12-sign tropical zodiac divides the sky into equal-sized, 30-degree sections. Due to this, the sun, for instance, only passes directly in front of each zodiacal sign once every month or so. The sun is in front of the constellations for varied lengths of time; for instance, it is in front of Virgo for approximately 1 1/2 months and Scorpius for approximately one week.
What are constellations in astronomy? The early stargazers identified patterns in the stars, gave them names, and connected them to tales and folklore. The International Astronomical Union (IAU) established the boundaries of recognized constellations at the turn of the 20th century. The constellations come in a wide range of sizes and shapes. The zodiacal constellations are those through which the sun, moon, and planets all move. There have been 12 zodiac constellations for as long as anyone can remember. Their names are roughly equivalent to those of the 12 zodiac signs.
There are 13 constellations in the zodiac if Ophiuchus is included, which also contains the sun for a portion of each year.
Ophiuchus a short hop north of Antares
On these July nights, you can glimpse Ophiuchus the Serpent Bearer. You’ll need a dark sky because the stars are faint. When night falls in the Northern Hemisphere, look for Ophiuchus in the south. Around mid-evening, look more overhead from the Southern Hemisphere.
You can locate Ophiuchus by looking for the bright red star Antares in the constellation Scorpius the Scorpion. A quick hop to the north of Antares will bring you to Ophiuchus.
The head of Ophiuchus is highlighted by the star Rasalhague, a second magnitude star. The Ophiuchus chart below shows Rasalhague. Rasalhague, however, is not even close to Antares’ brightness.
