Do you ever think about what makes you… you? Well, that’s not a coincidence. Each 1 of the 12 zodiac signs exhibits a specific set of personality traits that make up each sign’s unique characteristics. While these traits may vary from person to person, at the root, there is a key throughline.  

The time you are born determines your zodiac sign by which constellation the Sun was in. Your sign strongly influences your temperament, quirks, and idiosyncrasies. These characteristics inform our passions and perspectives on society, life and existence. Astrology provides a subjective glimpse into not only a person's simplified traits and preferences, but also where there’s room for growth.  

Zodiac signs act as a powerful tool for understanding yourself, your relationships, and the behaviours of others around you. There are abounding personality types associated with the signs, which provide unique influences on our emotions, behaviors, and points of view. Sagittarius, for instance, is renowned for their independence and adventurous spirit, while Virgos tend to be well-organized and extraordinarily methodical in their everyday approaches. 

Striving to really know your sign will help you gain a deeper understanding of the inner workings of your own psyche. To first gain an understanding of zodiac personality traits, you must understand the ways in which your astrological sign reflects the position of the sun at the time of your birth––which is how your sign is determined. Most notably, acknowledging the unique nature of our signs helps point us towards incredible, fulfilling lives!
