ABSTRACT:
Board game including a board provided with an annular path along which player's tokens may advance, the annular path being arranged concentrically about a central pivot axis and being divided into twelve equal segments each representing a respective one of twelve astrological house signs. A pair of segmented wheels are mounted for independent rotation about the central pivot axis and are arranged whereby the segmented portion of each wheel is visible. Each segmented wheel is divided into twelve equal segments, each of the segments of one wheel designating a respective one of twelve zodiac signs and the segments of the other wheel designating planet signs. An alignment indicator is associated with each segment of the wheels for indicating an operative scoring alignment between the wheel segments and the path segments. In this way, the wheels may be spun independently to provide random alignment of the alignment indicator with a house sign segment to provide random combinations of zodiac signs and planet segments.
