What Does My Zodiac Sign Say About Me?

What does my zodiac sign say about me? We’ve been looking to the stars since the time of the Babylonians. The answer to your question just might surprise you like it did them.

The zodiac calendar is divided into twelve signs. While they days covered by the signs do not match the calendar we use, they do cover the full 365 days in the year. Each sign period is based more on the seasons than on an artificial start and stop period. This is why Aries, the first zodiac sign, starts in March. March is the time of spring and the beginnings of life.

So, what does my zodiac sign say about me? People have noticed over the thousands of years of looking at the stars that certain traits tend to appear during the various periods of the year. Your sign reflects these findings. The sign is considered to have a number of representative traits. An Aries is full of energy and excitement while a Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, is much more mellow and thoughtful. Similar traits can be identified for each and every sign.

All this being said, your zodiac sign is just a general indicator. Many people have traits that are absolutely opposed to what their sign says they should show. How can this be? Well, the often misunderstood element of astrology is the simple fact that your traits and daily fortune are based on more than just the sign you were born in. There are a host of factors including the planet that is controlling during the day of your birth or even the influence of other signs. Let’s consider an example.

I had a client who was very confused. He was an Aquarius, but he did not display the characteristics typical of an Aquarius. He was very dreamy and not particularly energetic. How could this be? Well, the answer was found in his birth date. He was born on February 18th. What is the significance of that? It is a cusp date. This means it sits on the edge of one sign and another. February 18th is the last day of the Aquarius with Pisces starting on the 19th. People born on the cusp of signs can pick up the traits of either sign or a mix of them both. In this case, he carried nearly all the traits of a Pisces, not an Aquarius. When combined with the planet ruling the day of his birth, this was even more the case.

What does my zodiac sign say about me? It says that you are a person that can generally be assumed to have certain traits. The fact you might not show some or all of them does not mean the interpretation is off. Instead, it simply bears out the fact that getting a specific reading regarding your birth date, zodiac sign and ruling planet is the key to getting a more specific, accurate depiction of the person that is you!
