My buddies and I have gotten infatuated with astrology over the last year or two. During this time, I’ve realized that the subject is far more complicated than most people realize, especially since many astrology apps, such as CoStar, oversimplify how the stars function.

How did you end up with two zodiac signs?
There is just one solution, regardless of your birth date: no one has two signs. However, if you were born within a few days of the Sun’s transition from one zodiac sign to the next, you were born on the cusp, and you may experience the effects of two separate signs.
What are the zodiac cusps?
In general, if you were born three days before or after the change in signs, you are “on the cusp.” Each cusp phase is given a name that represents the unique energy that it bears.
- April 16 – 22 is the Cusp of Power.
- May 17th – 23rd is the Cusp of Energy.
- Cusp of Magic takes place from June 17 to June 23.
- Oscillation’s Cusp: July 19-July 25
- The Edge of Exposure is August 19th to August 25th.
- September 19th – 25th is the Cusp of Beauty.
- The Dramatic Edge: October 19 – 25
- From November 18 to 24, the United States is on the verge of revolution.
- December 18th – 24th is the Cusp of Prophecy.
- 16th – 23rd of January: Cusp of Mystery
- The Cusp of Sensitivity is from February 15th to February 21st.
- March 17th – 23rd is the time when the world is on the verge of rebirth.
How does being on the cusp affect you?
If you were born on the cusp, you may find that you have personality qualities from the sign next to you. People born under the sign of Aries but on the cusp of Aries and Taurus, for example, are frequently exceptional leaders. Normally, Aries impatience can lead to hasty decisions and reactions, but if you’re an Aries born on the cusp of Taurus, these tendencies may be mitigated by Taurean energy, which is more grounded and rational. This isn’t to say that being a cusper is always sunshine and rainbows; your two signs’ energies may clash!
In any case, being born on the cusp can endow you with a wide range of talents that can blend and shine in a variety of ways. Learning about the benefits and drawbacks of your cusp might help you accept your unique and sometimes confusing personality!
