Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 'Cusp'?
A 'cusp' occurs when you are born within a day or two of the exact transition point between two different zodiac signs. For example, if you are born on April 19th, you are technically an Aries, but you are 'on the cusp' of Taurus and may feel you exhibit traits of both.
Is my 'Sun' sign the only sign I have?
No! In advanced astrology, your Sun sign represents your core identity. But you also have a 'Moon Sign' (representing your emotional inner self) and a 'Rising/Ascendant Sign' (the mask you present to the world), which calculated based on the exact minute and location of your birth.
Why do the dates sometimes shift slightly from year to year?
Because a calendar year is exactly 365.24 days long (hence Leap Years), the exact minute the Sun culturally crosses into a new constellation can technically shift back and forth by a few hours depending on the year you were born.
