celestial	When we talk about celestial things, we are talking about things in the sky or space.
solstice	either of the two times in the year when the sun is furthest from the celestial equator, occurring in June and December.
zodiac	The zodiac is an imaginary belt that circles the earth in outer space. The belt is created by the paths of travel that the sun, moon, and planets appear to take through space as they are seen from the earth. As the celestial bodies travel along their paths, they go through areas where certain constellations can be seen. Each of these areas make up the parts of the zodiac. There are twelve of these parts and each one has a "sign" attached to it. The name of the sign is the name of the constellation located in that part of the zodiac.
