The Aries is the sign of the ram. Aries birthdays range from March 21-April 19. Like their fellow fire signs, Leo and Sagittarius, Aries is a passionate, motivated, and confident leader who builds community with their cheerful disposition and relentless determination. Uncomplicated and direct in their approach, they often get frustrated by exhaustive details and unnecessary nuances.

The Taurus is the sign of the bull. Their birthdays range from April 20-May 20. Typical sun in Taurus traits include being hard-headed, down-to-earth, tenacious, reliable, loyal, and sensual. All of these characteristics mirror themes covered by the Second House of Self-Worth and Income, which Taurus rules.
Gemini ♊
Gemini's animal is actually not an animal, the Gemini's constellation is a set of twins, Castor and Pollux. Their Birthdays range from May 21- June 20. Geminis are playful and intellectually curious, Gemini is constantly juggling a variety of passions, hobbies, careers, and friend groups. They are the social butterflies of the zodiac: These quick-witted twins can talk to anyone about anything. Find them buzzing between dinner parties and dance floors.
Cancer ♋
The Cancer's animal is the crab. The Cancer's birthdays range from June 21- July 22. Cancers have a reputation for being hyper emotional, temperamental, and spiteful. Cancers, in addition to being devoted, are extremely fond of their loved ones, often to an unhealthy degree. They place a high value on family and close friends, and will go great lengths to defend them, no matter the price.
Leo ♌
Leo is the sign of the lion. Their birthdays range from July 23-August 22. Typical sun in Leo traits include being confident, comfortable being the center of attention, drama-adoring, ambitious, loyal, fiercely protective of their nearest and dearest, generous, luxury-loving, sunny, and big-hearted.
Virgo ♍
Virgo is the sign of the goddess. Their birthdays range from August 23- September 22. On the appearance, Virgos are humble, self-effacing, industrious, and practical, but under the surface, they are frequently natural, kind, and sympathetic, as befits their zodiac sign. Virgoans are methodical and quick thinkers, yet they have so much mental energy that they are frequently stressed and tense.
Libra ♎
Libra is the sign of the scales. Their birthdays range from September 23-October 22. Librans are extroverted, cozy, and friendly people. Librans, like the scales that symbolize the sign, are often concerned with attaining balance, harmony, peace, and justice in the world. With their vast stores of charm, intelligence, frankness, persuasion, and seamless connectivity, they are well-equipped to do so.
Scorpio ♏
Scorpio is the sign of the scorpion. Their birthdays range from October 21-November 23. Scorpios, as a fixed water sign, are known for their loyalty and devotion and also their passion. In fact, they are known to have such intense personalities that they are often confused with vibrant fire signs. Alas, they just have deep feelings and emotions.
Sagittarius ♐
Sagittarius is the sign of the centaur (half man half horse). Their birthdays range from November 22- December 21. Sagittarians are optimistic, lovers of freedom, hilarious, fair-minded, honest and intellectual. They are spontaneous and fun, usually with a lot of friends, and are perhaps the best conversationalists in the zodiac (maybe tied with Gemini).
