Learn the edges

  1. What is a cusp in astrology?

    A cusp is the boundary between two zodiac signs. What it means to be "born on the cusp", why sign dates shift each year, and how to know your sign for sure.

  2. The twelve cusps and their nicknames

    All twelve zodiac cusps with their date windows, the popular nicknames they go by, and the traits popular astrology links with each pairing.

  3. The sky versus the zodiac

    How astrology's zodiac signs relate to the real constellations, why precession has shifted them apart, what Ophiuchus is, and what research says about astrology.

An honest kind of astrology site

The folklore: cusp nicknames, sign pairings, and the stories people enjoy telling about themselves.

The astronomy: why sign dates move each year, why signs and constellations no longer line up, and what Ophiuchus is.

The evidence: controlled studies haven't found that signs predict personality. We say so plainly.
