Your Birthday Profile

Your Personality

Born in the first decanate of Leo (July 23 - August 1), the Sun rules in its own sign with maximum brilliance. You are the most confident, creative, and naturally regal expression of the Lion. Leadership comes as naturally as breathing, and you possess a magnetic presence that commands attention the moment you enter a room.

Born near the cusp of Leo and Cancer, you may feel the influence of both signs. The Cancer energy adds a subtle secondary coloring to your Leo core — blending qualities from both signs in a way that makes your personality uniquely nuanced. Your Sun is firmly in Leo, but the neighboring sign's qualities may resonate, especially if other planets in your chart fall in Cancer.

About the 1st Decanate of Leo

The 1st decanate of Leo (July 23 - August 1) is sub-ruled by Sun. This means Sun's energy colors your Leo 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 Leo archetype.

Your Sun sits at approximately 2° Leo. 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.
