The four cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn, and each zodiac sign fits into one of those three categories. According to the AstroTwins, here’s what it means to be a cardinal and why it matters.

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 is the 4th zodiac sign?
Cancer is the Zodiac’s fourth astrological sign, deriving from the constellation Cancer.
The Sun transits this sign in the tropical zodiac between June 21 and July 22. You are a Cancer Sun Sign if your birthdate falls between these dates.
Cancer Personality
You are the Zodiac’s Patriarchs and Matriarchs. To you, family is everything. With zeal and commitment, you keep an eye on your children. You can always be counted on to attend any graduation, wedding, surprise party, or barbeque involving your relatives. They are unquestionably your tribe, and you are quite generous with them all.
Many of you have successful careers because you understand that this is the greatest way to support your family. Others like becoming stay-at-home parents because no one knows your children better than you. You want them to succeed, and you’ll do everything you can to help them do so.
You value your home and family so much that you are willing to put your personal wishes and desires aside for the sake of your immediate family. You’re often highly ambitious, and you want to move ahead so that you can provide the best for your family.
You understand that nutrition is the key to good health, thus cooking comes naturally to you. Chefs, as well as nurses and doctors who care for the physically crippled or unwell, are among your ranks. You are extremely perceptive and can always sense when one of your charges is in distress. It’s impossible not to feel depressed when you go into a room full of depressed people.
You prefer delicate tones and low lighting, and you prefer to make allusions to the things that are tough for you. You, like your totem, the crab who sidesteps, may find it difficult to be forthright. This might lead to miscommunication with others, so find a way to be explicit. It’s possible that writing things down will help.
On July 4, 1776, there were four planets in Cancer, rather than just one. Is it any surprise that we have trouble coping with our problems because we commemorate our national birthday on this date?
You are one of the best as a partner or parent. Everyone around you never has to wonder if you care since you demonstrate it on a regular basis.
Cancer Compatibility
For you, the best matches are:
Taurus has a way of making you feel like you’re his or her only, and the back rubs are to die for. Pisces appreciates your sensitivity and is always willing to listen to your day’s events.
Matches that are good for you:
Scorpio has the ability to read your feelings and will accompany you on your emotional journey. Virgo will maintain everything in order and make sure the rent is paid on time.
Who is the earth sign’s leader?
Don’t you think of a tough and authoritative leader when you think about Capricorn? Because they are the rulers of astrology, they emit cardinal energy. Winter has arrived when the sun enters Capricorn, and Capricorn is in charge with the same serious and calculated power that is required to survive the toughest season of all. Capricorn, as an earth sign, leads with logic, reason, and long-term goals in mind. This zodiac sign is quick to devise a strategy and delegate responsibility within their society. It’s up to them to devise a winning strategy.
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 are the signs of the zodiac that I belong to?
Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces are the 12 zodiac signs in order. Each zodiac sign has a symbol that dates back to Middle Ages Greek manuscripts. Let’s look at the zodiac symbols, constellations, and qualities in more detail.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
The ram is the constellation that represents Aries, the first of the twelve zodiac signs. You are adventurous, active, ambitious, and competitive if you were born under this sign. Aries are recognized for their agility and leadership abilities, as well as a tendency to be impetuous and blunt (due to the “fire” aspect).
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Taurus is the second of the twelve zodiac signs, and the constellation Taurus represents it. You are dedicated, dependable, focused, and creative if you were born under this sign. Tauruses are noted for their intelligence, trustworthiness, and stubbornness (the sign is a bull, after all). Tauruses are notorious for questioning authority and seeking pleasure.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
The constellation Gemini, which is made up of the Dioscurithe twins, Castor and Pollux, represents Gemini, the third of the twelve zodiac signs. You are active, expressive, intellectual, and playful if you were born under this sign. Geminis are recognized for their gregarious personalities and diverse interests, yet they have a (probably undeserved) reputation for being duplicitous.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
The constellation Cancer, which is most typically pictured as a crab, represents Cancer, the fourth of the twelve zodiac signs. If you were born under this sign, you are brave, empathetic, protective, and perceptive. Cancers are noted for their tendency to be remote and passive-aggressive, as well as their caring nature.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
The lion is the constellation that represents Leo, the fifth of the twelve zodiac signs. You are vivacious, extroverted, and fiery if you were born under this sign. Leos are recognized for their warm personalities and great self-esteem, although they can be proud or jealous at times.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
The virgin is the constellation that represents Virgo, the sixth of the twelve zodiac signs. You are practical, analytical, and sophisticated if you were born under this sign. Virgos are recognized for their generosity and meticulous attention to detail, yet they may also be introverted and have unrealistic expectations for themselves and their loved ones.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
The scales, the only inanimate constellation, represents Libra, the seventh of the twelve zodiac signs. You are thought to be balanced, social, and diplomatic if you were born under this sign. Libras are recognized for their selflessness and camaraderie, although they can be overly pragmatic and insecure at times.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Scorpio is the eighth of the twelve zodiac signs, and it is symbolized by the scorpion constellation. You are loyal, resourceful, and dedicated if you were born under this sign. Scorpios are recognized for their boldness and pioneering spirit, but they may be abrasive and walled off to strangers.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
The archer is the constellation that represents Sagittarius, the ninth of the twelve zodiac signs. If you were born under this sign, you are cheerful, self-reliant, and intellectual. Sagittariuses are noted for their magnetic qualities and generosity, yet they can also be arrogant and direct.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19)
Capricorn is the tenth of the twelve zodiac signs, and it is symbolized by the sea goat constellation. If you were born under this sign, you are patient, hardworking, and disciplined. Capricorns are recognized for their tenacity and fondness for boundaries and regulations, but they may be stubborn and too concerned with perfection.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
Aquarius is the eleventh of the twelve zodiac signs, and it is symbolized by the water carrier constellation. If you were born under this sign, you are thought to be creative, loyal, and unique. Aquariuses are recognized for their rebellious temperament and ingenuity, but they can be aloof and unyielding with loved ones.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
Pisces is the last of the twelve zodiac signs, and it is symbolized by the fishes constellation. You are intuitive, artistic, and sympathetic if you were born under this sign. Pisces are famed for their empathy and artistic abilities, yet they can also be overly sensitive or delusional.
What is the meaning of the moon in Scorpio?
Your Moon in Scorpio describes who you already are, while your Sun Sign describes attributes you are learning to develop and become.
You are likely to be sensitive and loyal if your Moon is in Scorpio, but you have strong emotional demands. Scorpio is a Water sign, meaning it is concerned with the emotional, psychological, and spiritual aspects of life. You’ll most likely come across as observant, forceful, and transformational.
Scorpio is also a Fixed sign, which means that when your emotions are aligned with something you want, whether it’s a friend/lover or an expected outcome, you’ll be consistent, tenacious, and hesitant to let go.
A sense of emotional well-being for you comes from having deep and honest relationships with people, which allow you to delve into the depths of life. You are likely to be a passionate person with a strong ability to connect on an emotional level, depending on other aspects in your horoscope. In your partnerships, you will seek intimacy and expect faithfulness in return.
Who are the psychopaths among the Zodiac signs?
No matter how sober we act or appear, we all have a semblance of insanity within us. Some people are able to handle it well, while others are unable to do so.

Here are 5 zodiac signs that have appeared enough times, ranging from the crazy to the least dangerous.
