Astrological Signs

The basics of astrology start with the 12 signs of the zodiac:

1. Aries- March 21st- April 19th
2. Taurus- April 20th- May 20th
3. Gemini- May 21st- June 20th 
4. Cancer-June 21st- July 22nd
5. Leo- July 23rd-August 22nd
6. Virgo- August 23rd- September 22nd
7. Libra- September 23rd- October 22nd
8. Scorpio- October 23rd- November 21st
9. Sagittarius- November 22nd- December 21st
10. Capricorn- December 22nd- January 19th
11. Aquarius- January 20th- February 18th
12. Pisces- February 19th- March 20th

There are good and bad traits about each sign and if you were born on a cut off day then you have the traits of both signs that surround you (example: March 21st babies are Aries but also have Pisces traits). This cut off date is called the "cusp".
