from
Wikipedia
The rotation axis of the Earth describes over a period of about 25800 years a small circle ( blue ) among the stars, centred around the ecliptic coordinates | ecliptic northpole ( blue E ) and with an angular radius of about 23. 4 °: the angle known as the obliquity of the ecliptic.
Also note that the daily rotation of the Earth around its axis is opposite to the precessional rotation.
When the polar axis precesses from one direction to another, then the equatorial plane of the Earth ( indicated with the circular grid around the equator ) and the associated celestial equator will move too.
As seen from the drawing, the orange grid, 5000 years ago one intersection of equator and ecliptic, the vernal equinox was close to the star Aldebaran of Taurus ( constellation ) | Taurus.
By now ( the yellow grid ) it has shifted ( red arrow ) to somewhere in the constellation of Pisces.
Note that this is an astronomical description of the precessional movement and the vernal equinox position in a given constellation may not imply the astrological meaning of an Age carrying the same name, as they ( ages and constellations ) only have an exact alignment in the " first point of Aries ", meaning once in each ca.
