		Under Ptolemy Soter, efforts were made to integrate Egyptian religion with that of their hellenic rulers.
		Ptolemy's policy was to find a deity that should win the reverence alike of both groups, despite the curses of the Egyptian priests against the gods of the previous foreign rulers (i.e Set who was lauded by the Hyksos).
		According to Plutarch, Ptolemy stole the statue from Sinope, having been instructed in a dream by the unknown god, to bring the statue to Alexandria, where the statue was pronounced to be Serapis by two religious experts.

		Today, some read Ptolemy as dropping the concept of a fixed celestial sphere and adopting what is referred to as a tropical coordinate system instead: in other words, one fixed to the cycle of the Earth's seasonal cycle rather than its orbital cycle.
		However, one also finds evidence in Ptolemy's The Almagest that he expresses a view of a fixed celestial sphere; or at least that he understand the difference between the relative motions of each.
		So Ptolemy's response to the issue of precession is that the zodiac moves through the equinox and also he makes it clear he understands that the equinox moves through the zodiac.

	Zodiac - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Western Tropical astrology uses the signs fixed to the seasons but because of the precession of the Earth's equinoxes since the time of Ptolemy the Sun's position in the actual zodiac constellations is now approx 22 days out of alignment and this difference is increasing.
		Hindu astrologers maintained a tradition of actual sky observation and have continually adjusted their zodiac to approximately align with the stars and so have abandoned the link between the zodiac and the calendar.
		Since Ptolemy's time there has been significant settlement in the Southern hemisphere and for people in this region the symbolism of the signs is at odds with their actual experience of the seasons.

		Finally, since the zodiac system uses the ecliptic rather than the terrestial equator for its equatorial plane it is not succeptible to the drifting of stars across the celestial equator as in the commonly used equatorial coordinate system (right ascension, declination).
		This table provides a nice comparison between the dates the Sun enters and passes away from the zodiac signs and constellations as defined by various specifications.
		Note the ecliptic passes through a thirteenth constellation, Ophiuchus (the serpent), as already recognized in Ptolemy's Almagest (Ptolemy 1998), without there being any sign corresponding to Ophiuchus.

		For other meanings, see Albion (disambiguation)'' Albion (in Ptolemy ''Alouion''), is the most ancient name of Great Britain, though often used to refer specifically to England.
		Pliny the Elder, in his ''Natural History'' (iv.xvi.102) applies it unequivocally to Great Britain, "It was itself named Albion, while all the islands about which we shall soon briefly speak were called the Britanniae." The name ''Albion'' was taken by medieval writers from Pliny and Ptolemy.
		The first sentence of the current edit reads "Albion (in Ptolemy Alouion), the most ancient name of the British Isles or Great Britain, though often used to refer specifically to England." I can't say I've ever come across Albion being used to refer to the British Isles rather than just Great Britain.
