Astrological Signs…


Hi ! Here is the Miniature Sheet of recent Indian issue of 12 stamp set that depicts Astrological signs. This is also one of the biggest Miniature sheets issued by India Post having 12 stamps. But this size cannot be accommodated on FDC. So philatelists will have to prepare their own special First Day Cover to get it cancelled by affixing this MS. But its interesting to see its design. I express my gratitude to Col Suresh Bagga of Panchkula for this Post…….Till Next Post…….Have a Nice Time !…

Date of Issue – 14 April 2010


Astrological signs represent twelve equal segments or divisions of the zodiac. According to astrology, celestial phenomena reflect or govern human activity on the principle of "as above, so below”, so that the twelve signs are held to represent twelve basic personality types or characteristic modes of expression. There are sun signs and moon signs, which both depend on your date of birth.

In Western and Indian astrology, the twelve signs are associated with constellations.In Western and Asian astrology, the emphasis is on space, and the movement of the sun, moon and planets in the sky through each of the zodiac signs. A common feature is the significance of the ascendant or rising sign, namely the zodiac sign that is rising (due to the rotation of the earth) on the eastern horizon at the moment of a person's birth.

The Zodiac is made up of 12 different sun signs. Your date of birth determines which one you are.
