What's the deal on my cusp(>_<;;)?!?

Question

I was born on the 20th of January(Cap./Aqu. cusp),at 2:35am,1987,which definetly makes me a Capricorn. I believe Aquarius started a few hours later. I've heard different,opinionated views on the validity of cusps,tho. Astrology sites I have visited are generally very limited in there sections on cusps and don't give the cusp-born much to go on, especially in regards to love matches. Would sumbody pleeease help me out? Thanks alot..

Answer 1

Astrology is a bunch of crap and always has been.

Answer 2

The thing with cusps is that a lot of astrologers don't believe in them. Truly, you are one sun sign or another. The only way you can find out which (though I'm pretty sure you are right that you're a Capricorn) is to go make a birth chart. Astro.com is the best to do this. You need birth time/place/location.

There are a few things though that could happen. In some cusp charts, you could have a Capricorn sun, but all of the planets or a majority of them have moved into Aquarius, giving you more Aquarian like tendencies. The opposite could happen as well. You could have an Aquarius sun but most of the planets in your chart are still stuck in Capricorn, making you feel more Capricornian. Or you could just be either sign with your planets in a whole mix of signs, which probably would be the best possibility.

Good luck. I hope this has helped you some :)

Answer 3

I generally think most cusp people round up to the next sign, which seems the likely thing to do, as most of the cusp day has the sun in the next sign. I always think of it as being the next sign over, with some previous tendecies. My friend was born on Sept.23rd, Virgo/Libra Cusp. However, most sources claim to be Sept.23rd to be Libra, and he has more libra qualities then virgo ones. I once asked him his sign, and he said "Libra" before I found out the specific date. He seems more sociable and less shy then your average virgo, as well as he's very musical and into artsy/peaceful stuff, which is kind of a libra quality. Though he could be a bit critical because he's so humorously observativonal at times, and criticizing is a virgo quality, yet he's overall more a libra.

Answer 4

The thing about being born on a cusp means that you are more versatile. When reading your chart, you will need to read for both signs to get the best picture of yourself. Also, the placement of the other planets is extremely important since the sun sign cannot tell you the full story. If you want to email me your place of birth, I can send you a birth chart that will help fill in the gaps.

Answer 5

Born on the cusp of Capricorn/Aquarius between January 19 to January 23

Capricorn is the tenth sign of the Zodiac; Aquarius is the 11th sign. Those born on the Capricorn/Aquarius cusp are involved with and interested in social institutions. They want to make them work as they were meant to work. They are humanitarians and philanthropists, the visionaries of the Zodiac. Friendship is important to them, and they have many acquaintances, in addition to their close friends. These people are also ambitious and disciplined, determined and dedicated to achieving their goals. They are practical, realistic and cautious not to get in over their heads. The astrological symbol of Capricorn is the Sea Goat. They start from the sea and ascend to the highest mountain tops, working their way upward with every step. While the path is not always smooth, their determination to succeed ensures they will persevere. The astrological symbol of Aquarius is the Water Bearer. Like the Bearer bringing water to his people, this sign brings new ideas to the world. It represents consciousness and the flowing of ideas. Capricorn/Aquarians work hard to bring their ideas to fruition, stubbornly refusing to give up their causes. This may appear as a Capricorn trait, but it is actually representative of the fixed quality of Aquarius. The cardinal quality of Capricorn is seen in their ambition and their willingness to embark on new projects. These people are independent and individualistic, within the world but detached from it. While they are peace-loving and friendly, they can be narrow-minded and overcritical of those not as ambitious as they are. Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn. In ancient Roman mythology, Saturn (and his Greek equivalent, Cronus) was the father of many of the gods, including Zeus. Saturn is about discipline, hard work and responsibility. It rules both Capricorn and Aquarius; Capricorn is the feminine, or night aspect, and Aquarius is the masculine, or day aspect. Both signs are concerned with achieving goals through hard work, but Aquarians work hard to achieve their visions, while Capricorns use hard work to gain authority and social status. When the planet Uranus was discovered, astrologers assigned it as the modern ruler of Aquarius. It is from this planet that Aquarians receive their visionary nature. Uranus is associated with progress and technology -- anything that is radical -- and it rules electricity and astrology. Some Aquarians have genius that borders on insanity, and their progressive ideas and association with anything that is different makes them dissimilar from Capricorn. Although Capricorn/Aquarians are powerfully influenced by both Uranus and Saturn. Those born on this cusp are both unpredictable and unconventional, while being interested in upholding tradition and conservative belief systems. The element associated with Capricorn is Earth. Earth Signs are practical: they tend to respond to the world through practicality. The element associated with Aquarius is Air. Air Signs are intellectual: they tend to respond to the world through intellect. Capricorn/Aquarius has fixed opinions and is eager to share and discuss them. While those born on this cusp are tolerant and broad-minded, they tend to stick to their beliefs. Their intellect makes them logical and self-confident, but it may also make them aloof from the people around them. They are original, offbeat and even eccentric, but they are also rather bored by detail. They are often business-oriented and can be extremely scrupulous. Reformist and experimental, they may also seem cold toward anyone who doesn't share their intellectual orientation to life. Capricorn/Aquarians are among the responsible and traditional sign combinations. They are generally reserved, careful and stable. Sometimes they may be overly critical, even bossy, but this is because they have a strong desire to achieve their goals, not because they are rude. In fact, they are generally polite because they understand that making enemies will not help them achieve anything in life. They tend to be multitalented, both in scientific and creative endeavors. They are unique and rebellious, driven to change the world. Their freedom is important to them, and they are often driven to help others become free as well. In their leisure time, Capricorn/Aquarians enjoy competition with others. They enjoy both team sports and one-on-one competition. They are quite the social animals and often have a fondness for conversation, as long as it has intellectual depth and meaning. The great strength of the Capricorn/Aquarius is in their ability to set goals and keep working until they achieve them. Their ambition is inexhaustible, and they are not easily deterred when their goals are in sight. Their visionary nature makes them people who take the world to the next level; they make others see things in a new light. Their ability to break the rules and move beyond what others think is possible makes them one of the most innovative and hard working characters of the zodiac.
