"The zodiac characters: Aries, Cancer, Pisces, and the others you mentioned are all based on Roman mythological stories or represent the gods. There are twelve of them in total to go with each of the twelve months." The divination professor placed a finger on the books page which listed the 12 astrological signs of the western zodiac.
"They are listed in order according to the Roman calendar, which listed April as the first month. 'April' being latin for 'opening', as in the opening of the spring season." He explained. "With me so far? Or have any questions?" He stopped to check their progress. Matheu nodded as the professor explained the zodiac to him. "Yes, that makes sense," Matheu said.
