  1. ^ a b c Schmidt (1970) added a Sun sign for Cetus, falling between Aries and Taurus from May 12 – June 6, as well as the more often seen addition of Ophiuchus, q.v. [ii]. However, his symbols for Cetus and Ophiuchus are not the same as the symbols used here. Under the IAU constellation boundaries, the sign of Cetus corresponds to the half of Taurus mostly west of Aldebaran and the Hyades, while the Taurus sign corresponds to the half of Taurus east of Aldebaran and the Hyades.
  2. ^ a b Ophiuchus is not a sign in traditional forms of tropical and sidereal astrology, and only appears in a few forms of astrology which use the nominal constellation boundaries adopted by the IAU.
