Have you ever read your horoscope and thought, “That’s so me,” or felt it perfectly matched your mood? According to astrologer Aliza Kelly, this is no coincidence.
Your zodiac sign, based on your birth date, time, and month, holds key insights into your personality. It reveals your strengths, weaknesses, fears, and even your compatibility with others. Your sun sign, determined by the sun’s position at the exact moment of your birth, reflects your core personality, preferences, and how you navigate the world.
But astrology doesn’t stop there. Your zodiac sign also links you to one of the four elements, Earth, Fire, Air, or Water, adding deeper layers to your personality. Each sign also has a modality (Cardinal, Fixed, or Mutable), which explains how you approach life.
