I am reading a book on mythology and symbolism called "Dictionary of Symbols, Myths and Legends" by Didier Colin, Hachette Livre, 2000. Yesterday, while reading a section on Cancer, I came across something very strange. To quote the author: "It is worth pointing out here that the planets in the zodiac and the 12 zodiac signs move in the same direction as water on earth. There is a physical explanation for this: the rotational movement of the earth is shared by the movement of the planets from east to west and the streams and rivers flow in one direction rather than another precisely because the earth is spinning on its axis."
Now I'm no geologist, but don't rivers and streams flow in all directions? Have I misinterpreted what is being said here? Can anyone help shed light? I've heard of water in a toilet spinning in one direction or another because of the earth's rotation, but rivers and streams? hmmmm....
