What is the United States’ sign?
(We’re such classic Cancers.) Happy Fourth of July! It’s America’s birthday, and the United States, like you, has a birth chart. Our country’s star sign is Cancer, as it was founded on July 4th.
What is the order of the 12 zodiac signs?
The zodiac is a belt-shaped section of the sky that stretches approximately 8 degrees north or south of the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun across the celestial sphere over the course of the year (as measured in celestial latitude). The Moon’s and visible planets’ courses are all within the zodiac belt.
The zodiac is divided into twelve signs in Western astrology, and formerly astronomy: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. Each sign occupies 30 degrees of celestial longitude and roughly corresponds to the star constellations: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn
These astrological signs make up a celestial coordinate system, or more specifically, an ecliptic coordinate system, in which the ecliptic serves as the origin of latitude and the vernal equinox serves as the origin of longitude.

Is August 22 Virgo or Leo?
Every year on August 22 or 23, the sun moves out of Leo and into Virgo.
If your birthday falls on or near those dates, you may identify with the characteristics of a Leo-Virgo cusp sign. However, it is a fallacy that those born on the first or ending days of a zodiac sign’s season are “cusp babies” (who have a mix of both zodiac signs’ energies). It has no astrological foundation! This is due to the fact that planets can only be in one zodiac sign at a time. So, even if you were born right at the end of Leo season, you’re still a pure Leo and not a Leo-Virgo cusp. I don’t want to shatter any cusp baby bubbles, but I’m here to spill the cosmic tea as an astrologer.
However, just because cusp signs aren’t genuine doesn’t rule out the possibility that someone born near the end of an astrological season will feel like a mix of two signs. There are many reasons why you may feel the impact of both signs in your personality if you were born on the Leo-Virgo cusp, and examining your birth chart will help you figure out why. Mercury and Venus are personal planets that usually travel near to the sun in the zodiac, thus if you’re a Leo, one of your personal planets could be in Virgo, and vice versa if you’re a Virgo. This would imbue you with traits from both the Leo and Virgo zodiac signs, making Leo-Virgo cusp attributes vital to grasp, albeit it wouldn’t be due to your birthday’s proximity to the Leo-Virgo cusp.
So, let’s talk about the energies of Leo and Virgo colliding. Every year at the end of August, the sun shifts from Leo to Virgo, signaling our collective entry into the final countdown to autumn. The Leo season occurs in the middle of summer, and this hot atmosphere is all about maximizing our passions while basking in the heat. However, as we prepare to shift into the fall, Virgo season is more about cleaning up our lives and getting organized. The zodiac’s ascension tells a story, and each sign’s vitality builds on the last, mirroring our annual journey through the seasons. All zodiac signs will feel the energetic shift as the sun crosses the Leo-Virgo cusp each year. That’s why understanding the Leo-Virgo cusp features may benefit anyone, not just those born with both influences in their horoscope.
While there are no cusp signs in astrology, you may have a lot of combined Leo and Virgo zodiac energy in your chart, and if that’s the case, you may relate to some of the attributes of a Leo-Virgo cusp.
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. Finally, your rising sign is the initial impression others get of you and how you appear on the outside.
