Sun Sign
The main character (your true self!)
Identity, self-expression
Where and how you shine
When most people think of astrology or ask “What’s your sign?” they are referring to the sun sign. The sun sign is the constellation of the zodiac belt that the sun lined up with in the sky at the time you were born from the perspective of a person standing on the Earth in the place where you were born. The sun moves through the 12 signs of the zodiac over the course of a year, so it spends about one month in each sign. Your sun sign is one of the “Big 3” most important elements of your birth chart, along with your moon and rising signs. The sun sign represents your true self and how you express that. Most people know their sun sign, or can look it up based on their birth date, but not everyone knows what house the sun was in at the time of birth (which changes every 2 hours, and needs a birth date, place and time to figure out). The sign and house the sun occupies in your chart indicate where and how you shine in your life, and what is most important to you.
