The Twelve Signs of the Zodiac
Click on a Sign to Decode Its Energy
Ancient astrologers used constellations to divide the sky into twelve sections, referred to as signs or the zodiacs.
We use these zodiacs to understand personality traits and life events based on the time and date of an individual's birth. If possible, it's best to have your exact birth time so a complete natal chart can be calculated because this is what reveals the full star coding that makes up a person.
Most people know their Sun sign, but there is so much more to a soul than that. When you were born, each celestial body was stationed in a particular zodiac constellation, and each of those placements speaks to different areas of your life; their correspondences, and the stories they tell about you.
Important Note
This section gives you the essence of each zodiac. Its intention is to help you get to know each sign on a deeper level.
This is not a section about specific planetary placements. What you'll find here is a collection of traits and correspondences for each sign itself: not a direct depiction of a person with their Sun in that sign, though you will find similarities.
If you're looking for specific planet placements for a sign, navigate to the Planetary Placements section.
