When most individuals think of astrology, their solar sign is often the first thing that comes to mind. After all, that’s the sign you’d check up when reading your horoscope or researching your cosmic compatibility with your crush. Understanding the differences between your sun, moon, and rising signs is a crucial place to start if you’re ready to delve deeper into your own astrology.
In astrology, your “big three signs” are your sun, moon, and rising sign.
Consider them your most important astrological data. These three signs are quite essential in your horoscope, and each is in charge of a different aspect of your personality and total self. While the sun represents your core self and the moon your inner self, you might consider your rising sign to be reflective of your outward self.
Even if you don’t believe in astrology, it’s just a matter of time before someone asks you for your big three, so now is the time to practice. Let’s go through the basic meanings and differences of the sun, moon, and rising signs so you may start looking into your birth chart and using astrology to your advantage.

What are the three major signs of the zodiac?
“I’m such a Virgo,” or “I could never date a Scorpio,” are undoubtedly phrases you’ve heard from friends. But what exactly does that imply? For a long time, astrology, or the use of planets and other celestial bodies to gain insight into events on Earth, was deemed quackery, but owing to a new generation of astrologers who are giving it a more feminist, psychological bent, it’s undergoing a revival. So, where do you begin with astrology? What are the most significant aspects of the Zodiac to understand? The main three: your sun sign, moon sign, and rising sign are a wonderful place to start.
Before we get into that, let’s take a step back and talk about your natal chart, or simply your chart. Your natal chart is a picture of the sky at the time of your birth. Everything in the sky was in a specific position when you slid out of your birthing parent’s womb, naked and slimy. Those placements, according to astrological theory, have an impact on your personality, passions, and strengths and weaknesses. It’s not so much that the planets did something to you at the time of your birth, according to current astrology. It’s not as if you were bombarded by gamma rays. Astrology, on the other hand, is a comprehensive approach to the universe: as above, so below. Everything, according to astrology, is intertwined in a web of connections and affinities. When you consider it from a spiritual standpoint, it’s actually rather lovely.
Your natal chart is a twelve-sectioned map of the heavens. (When you factor in something called housing, it’s actually divided into two groups of twelve, but we’ll get to that later.) Each segment symbolizes a Zodiac sign, with the sun, moon, and eight planets (aside from Earth) falling under each sign. If the sun was in Capricorn when you were born, for example, Capricorn is your solar sign.
What are the three different zodiac signs?
Cardinal signs, fixed signs, and changeable signs are the three major categories of zodiac signs. The zodiac sign’s three modalities are determined by how we function and express ourselves in the world. These three modalities each have four zodiac signs, one each from the fire, earth, air, and water elements, based on the properties of each zodiac sign.
What is the zodiac sign of the number three?
Sagittarius (November 23 December 21) and Pisces (December 22 January 20) are the zodiac signs (February 19- March 21). A triangle is represented by the number three. This number belongs to people born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, and 30th of any month. The triangle’s three sides represent force, substance, and consciousness.
What are the twelve signs of the zodiac?
Although decans or decanates are no longer used, each sign can be divided into three ten-sector segments known as decans or decanates. The sign ruler rules the first decanate, which is said to be most emphatically of its own nature. In the same triplicity, the planet controlling the next sign sub-rules the next decanate. In the same triplicity, the final decanate is sub-ruled by the next in succession.
While a sign’s element and modality are sufficient to characterize it, they might be grouped to reveal its symbolism. Personal signs are made up of the first four signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, and Cancer. The group of interpersonal signs is made up of the next four signs: Leo, Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio. The transpersonal signs are Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces, the last four signs of the zodiac.
Dane Rudhyar discussed the tropical zodiac fundamental factors, which are covered in the RASA School of Astrology’s curriculum. The tropical zodiac, as opposed to the sidereal zodiac, is the zodiac of seasonal variables (constellation factors). The fundamental seasonal elements are determined by the shifting light-dark ratio throughout the year. The first consideration is whether the selected time falls during the half of the year when daylight increases or during the half of the year when darkness increases. The second consideration is whether the chosen date comes during the half of the year when there is more daylight than darkness, or during the half of the year when there is more darkness than daylight. The third factor is the season in which the chosen time falls, which is determined by the first two factors. Thus
- The winter season is when the amount of daylight increases and the amount of darkness decreases.
- The spring season is when the amount of daylight increases and the amount of darkness decreases.
- The summer season is when the amount of daylight is greater than the amount of darkness.
- The autumn season is marked by an increase in darkness, with more darkness than daylight.
What exactly are the big three?
At the Teheran Conference in 1943, Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin, US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (from left to right) met.
(LC-USZ62-32833, Library of Congress.)
“The only thing worse than having allies is not having them,” British Prime Minister Winston Churchill reportedly said. The three great Allied countries, Great Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union, formed a Grand Alliance during World War II, which was crucial to victory. However, the alliance partners did not always agree on how the war should be fought and did not have common political goals.
When the United States entered the war in 1941, Churchill and US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt had been working together for some time. Roosevelt believed that a British victory over the Axis was in America’s best interests, whilst Churchill believed that such a victory was impossible to achieve without American help. In 1940, the two presidents worked together to find a method for America to assist Britain in maintaining its neutrality without jeopardizing its neutrality. The following year, they gathered off the coast of Newfoundland to begin organizing the postwar world in broad terms. Stalin, the Soviet Premier, was a late addition to the Big Three. Representatives from all three nations signed the United Nations Declaration on New Year’s Day 1942, vowing to work together to fight the Axis forces.
The Big Three had a lot of difficulty coordinating their operations. Because their capitals were thousands of miles apart, critical decisions had to be made via telephone or telegraph. Roosevelt, Stalin, and Churchill only met in person twice during the war, despite the fact that their officials met frequently.
Who is a rising Scorpio?
The Scorpio rising person has powerful, seething emotions that are typically hidden. Others find you intriguing and secretive if this describes you; you appear to purposefully turn on the charm for them. On the birth chart, someone born under this zodiac sign is at the ascendant.
What is the meaning of the black zodiac?
The Black Zodiac is an inverted version of the traditional Zodiac. The more eldritch Black Zodiac, like its celestial version, is divided into twelve arcane signs; but, unlike its celestial counterpart, these signs signify twelve earthbound spirits required to obtain entry to the Ocularis Infernum.
The Black Zodiac has a thirteenth ghost, the Broken Heart, in addition to the twelve usual ghosts. Because this spirit was deliberately sacrificed in an act of pure love rather than pain, it is the final ingredient in the spell that fully activates Basileus’ Machine.
Can you have two zodiac signs?
No, not at all. People born on the zodiac cusp are unique individuals whose date of birth combines the energy and attributes of two distinct signs together, forming a separate astrological personality with blended qualities, rather than formally being born under two signs.
Which zodiac has the best luck?
Sagittarius, the free-spirited, globe-trotting sign, is also willing to take a chance in life, which can lead to serendipitous encounters. According to Kovach, “those born under this sign are lovely and prominent.” “They are naturally drawn to opportunities to travel the world and expand their knowledge.”
The good fortune of Sagittarians may even be a self-fulfilling prophecy. “They’re upbeat enough to make the best of any situation,” Kovach says. “Perhaps it’s because they honestly feel they can accomplish anything they set their minds to.”
What does the number 333 mean?
What does the number 333 have spiritual significance? If you keep seeing the number 333, it could mean you’re about to make a big decision. It’s a sign that the path ahead of you is clear and ready for you to continue on your adventure.
