When people inquire about your zodiac sign, they usually mean your Sun sign. And, to be honest, everyone knows what their Sun sign is. It’s easy to check it up now that we have the Internet, and at the very least, everyone has been intrigued about what the stars have to say about them. Some people completely identify with their Sun sign, while others find it completely incomprehensible.
There are a number possible explanations, including your Moon sign and Ascendant, which I’ll discuss later. Even if you don’t exactly relate to the attributes of that zodiac sign, from the perspective of the sky, you will find patterns that correlate due to planetary motions at any given moment, thus I always urge people to read for the Sun sign in daily/monthly/yearly horoscopes.
Your Sun sign is determined by your birthday. If you were born on a day when the Sun changed signs, you may need to consult a personal natal chart because you may be one sign over the other. Because you can’t have two Sun signs, cusps don’t exist (despite pop culture magazines’ best efforts; Karen, stop trying to make them a thing!).

What are the three most important indications in my life?
Your Sun sign, Moon sign, and rising sign, also known as ascending sign, are the three most important places in your birth chart. Your Sun sign is the foundation of your personality and who you are as a person. Your Moon sign indicates your emotional side and who you are when you’re alone.

The zodiac signs of the four elements

How can I figure out what my sun and moon signs are?
While the date of your birth determines your Sun Sign. The date, time, and place of your birth define your Moon Sign. You may need to examine your birth certificates for the precise time and location of your birth in order to do so. You might also ask your mother whether she recalls it.
By birthday, what element am I?
There are 12 astrological signs in Western tropical astrology. Each of the four elements has three Zodiac signs connected with it, which are always exactly 120 degrees apart along the ecliptic and are said to be in trine with one another. The four classical elements (also called as triplicities) are still used extensively by most current astrologers, and they are still considered a crucial part of astrological chart interpretation.
Starting with Aries, which is a Fire sign, the next sign in order is Taurus, which is Earth, followed by Gemini, which is Air, and finally Cancer, which is Water. This cycle repeats twice more before concluding with Pisces, the twelfth and final astrological sign. According to Marcus Manilius, the elemental rulerships for the twelve astrological signs of the zodiac are as follows:
- Aries 1; Leo 5; Sagittarius 9 hot, dry, and ferocious
- Heavy, chilly, and dry2Taurus; 6Virgo; 10Capricorn
- 3 Gemini; 7 Libra; 11 Aquarius bright, hot, and damp
- Water is for Cancer, 8 for Scorpio, and 12 for Pisces. It is cool, moist, and gentle.
What are the signs of the moon?
Your moon sign is the zodiac sign in which the moon was at the time of your birth. It’s the soul of your identity, the hidden part of yourself that you may keep hidden from others (unlike your outwardly appearing sun sign), and it accounts for a significant portion of your emotional side.
What is your ascension?
Your rising or ascendant is the sign that was ascending on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth. It refers to the picture you put out into the world, or the mask you wear, and it provides insight into your abilities, talents, and tactics for navigating life. If you’ve ever felt like people don’t recognize you as your sun sign right away, it’s because they’re probably seeing your rising.
What is it about water that attracts fire signs?
She argues that water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) are traditionally associated with earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn) because water nurtures the earth. Because air feeds fire, air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) and fire signs (Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius) go together. “Signs in the same element (earth, water, air, or fire) also make the most harmonic angles to each other, known as ‘trines,’ which are 120 degrees apart,” she continues.
Is your zodiac sign your sun sign?
When most people ask, “What’s your sign?” they’re referring to your sun sign. It’s the most well-known of all the zodiac signs in a person’s birth chart, and it’s calculated by determining exactly which zodiac sign the sun was in when they were born. People are thought to take on particular personality traits based on the zodiac sign the sun was in when they were born, according to astrologer Susan Miller’s Astrology Zone.
