Inner conflict is something we all experience, but for those born on the cusp of two zodiac signs, it's ingrained in their DNA. A birthdate that coincides with the time when the sun exits a zodiac sign and enters another one is known as a cusp sign.
For
example, you may be a Cancer, but you will possess a few traits
of Leo if you were born on the cusp. In many ways, people born on dates
that fall on a zodiac cusp have features from two different zodiac signs rolled
into one, says an astrology consultant in Kolkata.This is because you have characteristics derived from the energy
of each zodiac sign.
What dozodiac cusps represent
The
dominating natureof an individual (due to the position of the Sun) whose
birthday falls on the zodiac cusp, which is the point of transition
between two states, roughly 2 or 3 days before and after the
crossover between two astrological signs is referred to by the cusp theory. The
twilight days between two signs (symbolising a period of obscurity and
ambiguity), where one zodiac sign is rising as the other one is setting, are
represented by the cusps. These are times of transition, compromise and
surprise, endings and beginnings.
Cusps
can be mystifying, but this isn't always a bad thing. It can be both a blessing
and a curse to have the talents and limitations of two signs. You inherit not
just the excellent aspects of each, but also their flaws. This opens up a whole
new universe of possibilities.
How do you tell whether you were born on the cusp of a zodiac sign
You
were born on a cusp if your birthday falls between any of the dates below.
Here is what that signifies in terms of your personality traits and qualities,
according to astrology.
Capricorn-Aquarius Cusp
Dates: 16-22 January
The
most important aspect is their personal lives. These imaginative people are
enthralled by inner fantasies and waking dreams. Capricorn-Aquarians may be
frustrated with "actual" life at times since their interior lives are
so rich. According to famous astrologers, the bleakness of their common world might feel
confining and monotonous, making this distressed cusp feel as if
their life is missing something. This sense of unease could have a bad
impact on their personal relationships.
Aquarius-Pisces Cusp
Dates: 15-21 February
Aquarian-Pisces
are known not just for their sympathetic, empathetic, and tolerant
qualities, but they also have more outgoing personalities than you might
expect. Being in the company of others can revitalise an Aquarius-Pisces, give
them a feeling of purpose, and alleviate stress. This intrinsic yearning,
however, is frequently accompanied by feelings of solitude and
misunderstanding. Because they are frequently lost in their own thoughts, it can
be sometimes difficult for these people to conduct a regular discussion with
others.
Pisces-Aries Cusp
Date: 17-23 March
People
born on Pisces-Aries cusp make successful leaders due to their inherent leadership
skills and compassionate personalities. They aren't scared to act, and they
aren't afraid to drag others along with them. However, if they think about it
too often, they will begin to doubt themselves. This cusp, ruled by Neptune and
Mars, is vested in their success.You are adamant about your beliefs and can be
somewhat obstinate about them. Just let go of your obstinacy and pay attention
to what others have to say for a moment. Any conversation can easily devolve
into a heated disagreement. So unwind and engage in meaningful conversation
with others.
Aries-Taurus Cusp
Date: 16-22 April
We're
talking about complete dominance here. If you put an Aries-Taurus in a position
of power, they will rise to the occasion. They will continue raising their
level until they've mastered whatever game they're working on. They are
outstanding art aficionados, nurturing companions, and perceptive leaders, as
they are ruled by both Mars and Venus.
Taurus-Gemini Cusp
Date: 17-23 May
Ambitious
yet grounded, educated and humble, inventive and adaptable, this cusp's behavioural
traits are the best of both Taurus and Gemini. They are also productive, and
when it comes to commitments, they might try to do too many things. The
dual-ruled by Venus and Mercury have unlimited, youthful energy, which may be a
benefit when focused, says the astrologer in Kolkata. However, if not channelled correctly, that energy can leave the
holder feeling disoriented, jittery, and worried.
Gemini-Cancer Cusp
Date: 17-23 June
They
may be lively and amazing, and their outgoing demeanour adds to the
fun. They are ruled by the planets Mercury and Moon, and they prefer to be
surrounded by individuals they know and trust, which might be difficult to
earn. Gemini-Cancers are sensitive and affectionate, and they place a high
emphasis on their family.
Cancer-Leo Cusp
Date: 19-25 July
When
you have a mix the passionate Cancer and the fiery Leo personalities, even the
slightest details might become exaggerated. They do, however, keep things
interesting. When you first meet this Moon-Sun duo, they might appear shy, but at
the end of the night, they woulddo all the talking and will not allow anyone
else to speak.
Leo-Virgo Cusp
Date: 19-25 August
In
this cusp, authority clashes with caution, desire clashes with excellence, and
fire clashes with the earth. While these seemingly opposing personality traits
may provide harmony to the Leo-Virgo cusp, there is evident conflict. Knowing
just what to say at the appropriate time is a big skill set, and when this cusp
gets behind a cause, they can be incredibly convincing.
Virgo-Libra Cusp
Date: 19-25 September
People
born between the signs of Virgo and Libra are charming, creative, sensitive,
clever, and compassionate. This cusp is noted for being good at putting parts
together and is drawn to attractive people, great art, and sensuous pleasures.
Indeed, for the Virgo-Libra cusp, event planning would be an excellent
professional choice.
Libra-Scorpio Cusp
Date: 19-25 October
This
cusp, which is ruled by Venus and Pluto, has the potential to be a sexual
dynamo. However, its flammability can have downsides. To begin with, it's not
easy to be the one who constantly tells it like it is, no matter who it may
harm. People born on the Libra-Scorpio axis are fast to express their feelings. Therefore, don't ask them that difficult question unless you're
prepared to receive a stinging retort.
Scorpio-Sagittarius Cusp
Date: 18-24 November
People
born on the Scorpio-Sagittarius cusp are inclined to go against the norm, since
they are ruled by Pluto, Mars, and Jupiter. Ask them to do it one way, and
they'll teach you how to do it the other way. These are self-taught experts who
learn via experience. They are the zodiac's wild child.
Sagittarius-Capricorn Cusp
Date: 18-24 December
For
a reason, the Sagittarius-Capricorn cusp is known as the Cusp of Prophecy. In
this daring and honest part of the zodiac, optimism meets reality, and they
are wise beyond limit. Of course, everyone has a dark side, and this
Jupiter and Saturn-ruled cusp is prone to a strong urge to exert control over
their surroundings.
Final Word
If
you are a zodiac cusp, consult a professional astrologer in Kolkata to unlock the mysteries of your cusp sign andmaintain
the right balance in your life.
