Pisces Aries cusp
by: David-admin

What you're referring to is called a cusp, which is the moment one sign changes to the next. The cusp between Pisces and Aries happens at a precise moment, which varies from year to year. If you were born before it you would be Pisces, and after it you would be Aries.

The moment of a cusp is not related to calendar dates. It's not as simple as saying March 20th is always Pisces and March 21st is always Aries. One year the cusp may be at 10.12pm at night on the 20th, the next year it may be early in the morning on the 21st etc.

To find out for sure which sign you are we need to know the time, date, year and location you were born. If you can tell me that information I can tell you for sure which sign you are. Feel free to Contact me (also available from the menu of any page of this site)

If you don't know your birth time then things get a little more complicated, but it is often possible to figure it out "backwards" from major life events. That's a technique called birth time rectification. I won't confuse things here by going into it, other than to say it exists for that scenario.

Pices Aries Cusp

My birthday is also March 20th. I was born before the cusp, but in my experience I have found that being that close to the cusp DOES mean something. Sometimes I refer to myself as "hot water all over the place" cause that's exactly how I feel on the cusp of water and FIRE.
Traditionally that cusp is know as the "cusp of rebirth." I have also read that it is common for people on this cusp to have a lot of creative power, although are often misunderstood or misinterpreted.
At times I feel more empathetic and passive, like my Pisces Sun and Capricorn moon would suggest. Other times I feel hot and active, like a volcano. That's my Aries side and Cancer rising having the best of me.
Ive done a lot of sign guessing and I have confused a few Aries for Pisces because of that firey spirit that I recognize in them and feel in myself.

QUESTION
by: Mischa

I have always consider myself full blown PISCES. My birthday is the day before the cusp March 19th but I do have some fire tendencies and wonder if that has anything to do with being born close to the cusp or the fact that I have two Fire sign parents?

My brother is also born on March 20th. I don't know which side of the cusp he was born on, but he exhibits traits of both Pisces and Aries. He even has them both tattooed on himself and has often said that he is at war with himself seeing as how he considers himself to be of both a fire and a water sign. No matter what side of the cusp you are born on, you still have traits of the other sign since you are born so close to it. Although, I hope for your sake, that you don't feel like you are at war with yourself as my brother does.

March 19th Is that on the cusp of Aries
by: Hurting Alot



I have always felt conflicted about my sign. I am not like any of the Pisces people I have ever known. I feel so deeply saddened (melancholic)a lot of the time but have an awful rage when emotionally hurt by a significant other....a firey tongue. I attribute that to being born so close to the cusp of Aries. Need help here.
