The star sign is determined by the position of the Sun ‘in’ a particular constellation at the time of birth. To put it another way, each of the Zodiacal constellations will be concealed ‘behind’ the Sun at some point during the year as the Earth revolves around the Sun in its orbit.

What are the three most important signs in my life?
The main three placements within a birth chart are your Sun sign, Moon sign and rising sign, also known as your ascending sign. Your Sun sign is the foundation of your personality and who you are as a person. Your Moon sign represents your emotional side and who you are when you’re alone. Finally, your rising sign is the first impression others have of you and how you appear on the outside.
How do you know what your Sun and Moon signs are?
Your Moon Sign is a reflection of your innermost feelings and thoughts. It’s as if you have an internal monologue that expresses all of your emotional demands and sentiments. Check your Moon Sign horoscope every day to see how it affects your emotions.
What are the four zodiac signs that I have?
They make up the natural world as a whole, so each is reliant on the other in some way.
- Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are the fire signs.
- Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn are earth signs.
- Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are air signs.
- Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are all water signs.
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 image you project out into the world, or the mask you wear, and it provides insight into your abilities, talents, and strategies 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 noticing your rising.
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.
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.
