ποΈ Cusps & What Your Birth Month Says About You π
March Aries or April Aries? May Gemini or June Gemini? Hereβs a vibe check for each sign.
In astrology, zodiac signs are determined by the Sunβs position at the time of birth, dividing the year into twelve signs, each spanning roughly a month.
However, the exact dates for each sign can vary slightly due to the solar calendar, creating βcuspsβ where individuals born near the transition between two signs may exhibit traits of both.
A cusp is typically considered the few days (about 2-5 days) at the beginning or end of a signβs period, where the energies of the adjacent signs blend, creating a unique expression of the individualβs personality.
Additionally, even within the same zodiac sign, the month of birthβearly or late in the signβs periodβcan influence how the signβs traits manifest. Those born earlier in a signβs period (e.g., May Gemini) may embody the signβs core qualities more purely, while those born later (e.g., June Gemini) may show a subtle pull toward the next signβs energy, even if they donβt fall on the cusp.
This monthly differentiation adds nuance to astrological interpretations, as the Sunβs progression through a sign can amplify certain traits or blend them with the approaching signβs influence.
