#These dates weren't selected Completely at random I had an idea of what seasons most of them fall in and the relative sizes

[serpentface]

What intervals of the year do the -mache signs correspond to? Assuming the same length as an earth year. I want to know my horoscope...

I did give it the 365 day length. Presume everything about this planet is functionally earthlike (besides the three moons, which just so happen to be the exact size/mass/distance that perfectly balances out into things still being earthlike, probably not possible, too late to retcon three moons out, don't worry about it)

The Wardi zodiac assigns signs based on when the constellation and its 'field' (buffer of space between each) passes through the ecliptic, (rather than dividing the ecliptic into even spans and assigning a roughly correspondent sign, as in the western zodiac). IE: Only the tail of the Lion passes through and thus its period is very short (6 days), while the entirety of the Gull's wingspan passes through and thus its period is very long (34 days).

I'll add equivalent dates in the western calendar. It's unlikely that zodiac dates would just so happen to align perfectly to the start and end of the western calendar, but the it doesn't exist in-universe and the zodiac dates don't align neatly to the Wardi calendar year so it's fine . Whatevr.

You can read about meaning ascribed to each sign here:

Note that Imperial Wardin uses a generalized solar calendar consisting of 13 total months (twelve thirty-day months and one five-day month (6 on leap years)), and a separate lunar calendar with specifically ritual functions (most holidays occur along the lunar calendar).

The solar calendar starts its first month at roughly the seasonal equivalent of September (when most of the latest seasonal crops have been harvested, the earliest are being planted, and the rainy season typically begins), the new years holiday is actually Celebrated on the first new moons of the first month (and thus its date changes year by year), and the solar year ends with the five-day month.
