Why dates matter
The Sun moves through each sign during the year.
Your birth date determines where it was. This is where most people recognize themselves. It shows up in how you react, how people respond to you, and why certain situations repeat.

If you’re born on the edge of a sign, things can feel unclear.
That’s because timing matters. But this alone doesn't explain the full pattern -- how it plays out depends on the rest of your chart.
