“The key to being ‘born on the cusp’ is that you’re always one sign or the other.” Weiss explains. “The distinction is that you’re a Taurus-flavored Aries if you were born near the conclusion of the sign. You’re an Aries-flavored Taurus if you were born during the start of Taurus season. But you’re either one of the signs or the other.”
“To use a cocktail comparison, an Aries-flavored Taurus could prefer a floral note in her generally hot Bloody Mary, whereas an Aries-flavored Taurus might want a bit of spice in her more flowery beverage.” Astrologer Stefanie Iris Weiss
If you were born between April 17 and 23, you might be an Aries-Taurus mix, and Weiss breaks down what that means for you below.

Is April 20th a Taurus or an Aries date?

You are a Taurus (also known as a Taurean) if you were born between April 20 and May 20. It is known as the Minor April Sign since it only lasts for ten days in April (from April 20 to April 30), which is less than Aries (20 days).
Taureans thrive in activities that bring them closer to nature, and they excel at gardening, handwork, cooking, music, and romance. The harvest of the fruits of work is symbolized by the zodiac sign.

Are April Taurus and May Taurus different?
Venus is Taurus’ ruling planet, and it is the planet of love, worth, and value. May-born Taureans, on the other hand, nearly always fall into the second or third decan of the sign, which means they have an extra planetary co-ruler influencing their Taurean mood. Because April’s bulls (also known as first decan Taureans) are ruled completely by Venus, they are recognized for exhibiting traditional Taurus characteristics such as loyalty, grounding, and pleasure-seeking. The more broad strengths and shortcomings linked to their sign will usually resonate with these conventional Tauruses.
What makes Aries and Taurus so dangerous?
Aries and Taurus make excellent friends, but when it comes to sexual relationships, they are the worst of enemies. On the one side, we have type A Aries, who despise taking second place to anyone. On the other hand, we have stubborn Taurus, who can’t take it when their opinions are challenged, even if the other person is chevalier. When these two meet together, they create a particularly poisonous mix of people who enjoy giving advice but cannot accept it. To make matters worse, when it’s time to quit the relationship, Aries will revert to old behaviors and want to disappear, whilst Taurus will dig in their heels and demand an explanation. This will result in a novel-length text back-and-forth that will last well into the next calendar year.

The Gemini-Cancer Cusp
The Taurus-Gemini Cusp, also known as the Energy Cusp, lasts from May 17 to May 23. People born around this period have traits from both zodiac signs. They are intelligent, socially outgoing, and energetic.
Because this cusp connects two element signs, the earth element and the air element, people born at this time are both stable and flexible.
But let us return to our original topic, those born on May 22nd. It’s crucial to remember that, despite the influence or pull of the Taurus zodiac sign, persons born on May 22nd are Gemini at heart.
