What Makes a Birthday Special?
Every year on your birthday the Sun returns to almost exactly the same position relative to the Earth, because the Earth
takes a year to travel around it. Everyone born on this date therefore has the Sun at nearly the same degree in their
birth chart — and the same Sun sign.
That shared solar position allows astrologers and numerologists to describe some common tendencies in character, health,
family life, career and finance for people born on the same day. MoonAstro's birthday profiles for every date from
1 January to 31 December have been compared against a large number of real charts and refined over time.
The Sun is only one factor. In Vedic astrology your Moon sign, birth star (nakshatra) and Ascendant are more
important for understanding your life —
