14世纪末,源自古法语 zodiaque,源自拉丁语 zodiacus "黄道带",源自希腊语 zodiakos (kyklos) "黄道带(圆圈)",字面意思是"小动物的圆圈",源自 zodiaion,是 zoion "动物"的小型词(源自 PIE 词根 *gwei- "生活")。
天秤座不是一个动物,但在希腊人看来,它不是一个黄道星座,他们认为有11个星座,但将天蝎座及其爪子(包括现在的天秤座)视为"双重星座"。天秤座在罗马时期被重新描绘。在古英语中,黄道带被称为 twelf tacna "十二个星座",而在中古英语中也被称为 Our Ladye's Waye 和 the Girdle of the Sky。
黄道带
天球上以黄道为中心线的一条宽约18°的环带状区域,太阳、月球以及除冥王星外所有大行星的视运动轨迹都位于这条带内。
