Is it possible to see zodiac constellations with the naked eye?

Without the use of a telescope? If so, what areas are best for doing so and how often are the zodiac constellations visible?|||Sure. That is what astrologers did in ancient times, actually observe. What you need to do now is go to an astronomy webpage to find which constellations are visible at certain times of the year. Though you must be a long way from the city do to light pollution.|||If you go to this site:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zodiac


there is a list of each constellation. Click on the constellation e.g. Aries, then go to the site and look for "constellation of aries" in blue text. Each constellation has a photo which shows what it looks like to the naked eye.


Examples:
