About the 2nd Decanate of Aries
The 2nd decanate of Aries (March 31 - April 9) is sub-ruled by Sun. This means Sun's energy colors your Aries Sun, adding a distinctive flavor to how you express your sign's core qualities. Each sign is divided into three decanates of 10 degrees each, and your decanate ruler acts as a secondary influence that makes your birthday unique within the broader Aries archetype.
Your Sun sits at approximately 12° Aries. The specific degree can shift by a day depending on the year you were born, since the Sun's exact position varies slightly from year to year. For a precise degree, calculate your full birth chart.
