This chart is an equatorial view of the constellations from London at the Solstices - either midday at the Summer Solstice when the sun would be midway between the constellations of Gemini and Taurus, or midnight at the winter solstice when the sun would be just to the east (right) of the constellation of Sagittarius. All twelve constellations of the zodiac lie in a narrow band along the ecliptic.
