What is the date of each zodiac sign?

From your date of birth, you can easily determine your astrological sign. Each zodiac sign has its own characteristics, from which can be deduced individual personality traits but also love compatibility (sexuality, marriage) and friendship with other signs.

What does my zodiac sign mean?

The 12 constellations of the zodiac (or astrological houses) are: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.

The dates of your astrological sign correspond to the time during which the sun crosses one of the 12 constellations of the zodiac, each astrological house occupying 30 ° of celestial longitude, out of the 360 ° occupied by the starry vault. It is therefore common to speak of "solar sign" to designate the zodiac sign since it is determined, at the time of the birth of an individual, by the conjunction between the Earth (the observer from a determined place), the Sun and one of the 12 astrological constellations. As it happens, your zodiac sign bears the same name as the constellation crossed by the sun on the day of your birth. Likewise, your zodiac sign draws its main qualities and character flaws from its astrological house. Of course, in your birth chart, the calculation of the movements and positions of the planets sheds a more precise and detailed light, both on your personality traits but also on the outlines of your destiny.

Origins of astrology

Astrology (which means "study of the stars" in ancient Greek) finds its origins in the Mediterranean region, Mesopotamia and Persia. The famous Greek astrologer Claudius Ptolemy (170 - 100 BC) takes up and perfects the fundamental principles of astrology as they were developed during the previous centuries by the ancient astronomers of Greece, Babylon and Egypt. The work of Ptolemy, preserved by Arab and Indian scholars, has long remained the main reference in astrology in the West and the Middle East.

Ptolemy, in his encyclopedia on astrology (Tetrabiblos), first of all makes the postulate of the physical influence of the stars and planets on the physical world, to the exclusion of the spiritual and mystical field. If, within his work, he also establishes a list of 140 "fixed stars" and assigns them a function, it is especially the astrologers in India and Asia who will subsequently give them a key role, while Western astrology will remain focused on the role of the planets. Ptolemy attributes four fundamental elementary qualities to the planets (hot, cold, dry and wet), themselves associated with the four elements (Fire, Water, Earth, Ether). Each house (and therefore each zodiac sign) is itself associated with a planet and an element.

Thus, each zodiac sign undergoes the influences of the celestial bodies which pass in direct or retrograde movement within its astrological house. The different configurations of celestial bodies and their relationships between them help determine the fate of an individual, both at the time of his birth and at a later date (predictive astrology), but also in his relationship to others (astrological compatibility).
