Aries or Taurus traits

If your Sun is in Aries: You start things. Your energy is direct and impatient with delay, and you are most yourself when there is something to go first at. The work of an Aries Sun is finishing what the spark began.

If your Sun is in Taurus: You build. Comfort, steadiness and things that last matter more to you than novelty, and people trust you because you do not change your mind for show. Your growth edge is letting go before something stops working.

Your Sun sign is one part of a chart. The Moon and the rising sign, which need the time and place of birth, say as much about you. StarMap is for entertainment and self-reflection.

Signs are computed from the Sun’s position with the astronomy-engine ephemeris, checked against Swiss Ephemeris, for every year from 1900 to 2026. Birth dates and places come from Wikidata. A sign is shown beside a name only when it holds for the whole of the birth date; where it does not, both possibilities are given. How to read a birth chart.
