二千多年前希腊的天文学家希巴克斯（Hipparchus，西元前190～120）为标示太阳在黄道上观行的位置，就将黄道带分成十二个区段。
以春分点为0°，自春分点（即黄道零度）算起，每隔30° 为一宫，并以当时各宫内所包含的主要星座来命名，依次为白羊、金牛、双子、巨蟹、狮子、室女、天秤、天蝎、人马、摩羯、宝瓶、双鱼等宫，称之为黄道十二宫 。总计为十二个星群。
在地球运转到每个等份（星群）时所出生的婴儿，长大后总有若干相似的特征，包括行为特质等。将这些联想（丰富的想像和创造力）串联起来，便使这些星群人性的具像化了；又加入神话的色彩，成为文化（主要指希腊和罗马神话）的重要部份。
这套命理演进、流传至今至少五千年的历史，它们以这十二个星座为代表。
