It associates those people born ""under"" one of these with certain human behaviors and traits like being active, self-motivated, insightful and ambitious. The word ""cardinal"" originates from the Latin word for ""important,"" since they each mark the turning point of a temperate season. They were called ""moveable"" by traditional astrologers because, as Bonatti says, the ""air"" changes when the Sun enters each of these signs, bringing a change of season.

The zodiacal signs are distinct from the constellations associated with them, not only because of their drifting apart due to the precession of equinoxes but also because the physical constellations take up varying widths of the ecliptic, so the Sun is not in each constellation for the same amount of time. Thus, Virgo takes up five times as much ecliptic longitude as Scorpius. The zodiacal signs are an abstraction from the physical constellations, and each represent exactly one twelfth of the full circle, or the longitude traversed by the Sun"
