Zodiac

The belt of twelve celestial houses through which the sun appears to travel. At Delphi its turning marks sacred time: as the vernal point advanced through the zodiac, the solar influence reached Hellas and Apollo's culture bloomed. The macrocosmic clock of the ages.

Greek zodiakos (kyklos) — 'circle of little animals,' from zoion (living thing).
