Today our Sun is said to be shifting from the astrological sign of Pisces into that of Aquarius, as the precessional movement of the Poles makes the backround of stars move by a tiny distance, relative to the Earth, across the sky.
The signs each take around 2,160 years to shift from one constellation to the other (30 degrees), meaning that they shift around one degree every 72 years.
The eighteenth dynasty existed during the precessional period of Aries, the ram. At that time astrologers would say that "the Sun was in the sign of Aries."
Prior to this, more than 4,165 years ago, the Sun was in the sign of Taurus, the bull, and at that time the bull was worshipped by the Egyptians at Memphis during the early dynasty periods, which became associated with Osiris (this is known from objects found in the Serapeum at Saqqara).
