What do you know about Ophiuchus? The polemic 13th sign of the zodiac

In mythology, Ophiuchus identifies with the healer Asclepius, son of Apollo, who was able to return the dead to life. Upon realizing his power, Hades convinced Zeus to kill to Asclepius with a lightning bolt and, upon death, it was made in the stars as a constellation.

What do you know about Ophiuchus? The polemic 13th sign of the zodiac

The constellation Ophiuchus has been known since ancient times and is also called Serpentarius.It is included in the list of 48 constellations described by Ptolemy.Ofiuco is represented as a man bound by a snake; with his body dividing the great snake into two parts, giving way to the symbol used today by medical personnel.

Astrologers have not included Ophiuchus in the sign wheel It was not because it was the 13th sign in the sky and it seemed a bad omen, but because the astrologers believed that the Sun was traveling from the constellation of Scorpio directly to the sign of Sagittarius .This is not the case.The Sun, for 19 days a year, travels through the constellation of stars 'Ofiuco', before entering Sagittarius.

What do you know about Ophiuchus? The polemic 13th sign of the zodiac

Ophiuchus is the 13th sign of the zodiac and is linked to a real man.This man lived in ancient Egypt around the 27th century BC, and his name was Imhotep.Many of the same attributes of Imhotep can be found in the biblical Hebrew character Jose, son of Jacob.Amhotep attributes many achievements, including knowledge and use of medicine. The symbol of a snake, which as we have said is still widely used today to represent the medical profession, was used before to represent Imhotep.You would like to know that Imhotep was also known as "Asclepius" by the ancient Greeks (the most recognized cultural base of this symbol today).As you can see, all cultures are connected in this character seemingly so basic to the development of humanity.

The signs of the zodiac are, for the most part, the path that the Sun takes on its annual journey through the heavens in the eyes of the terrestrial. These signs are actually constellations of stars that occupy the space in which the Sun seems to travel for a year of the earth.The original twelve signs/constellations: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Pound, Esco Rpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces are very familiar to everyone, however, the thirteenth sign and constellation, Ophiuchus, is not so much.

Now, recognizing this sign number 13 seems uncomfortable for astrologers, especially those who like the neatness of the 12 signs that govern the 12 houses of the zodiac.Although the skies are alive, they do not change after a few thousand years and the astrologer who wants maintaining accuracy must change along with the signs in the heavens.

This astrological sign would affect those born between November 30 and December 17, but few seem willing to give up their sign to make a dent.to the ignored Ophiuchus.
