A cardinal sign is a zodiac sign whose beginning occurs at the time of seasonal change.

The Sun passes to Aries at the time of spring equinoccio to cancer at the time of the summer solstice, the Sun enters Libra at the time of autumn equinox and the sun enters Capricorn at the time of the winter solstice.

The word «cardinal» comes from Latin and means «hinge», indicating that these signs mark inflection points in the year.

Each sign is an expression of that specific phase of nature.

In each of the 4 stations there is in fact tripartition:

• A beginning (the beginning of a station, for example spring)
• A stabilization (natural energies increase, become stronger, warmer, more intense)
• The decline (spring gives way to summer)

Within each station, we therefore have a growth phase of a light phenomenon, a stabilization and finally a decrease in this same luminous phenomenon (typical of that station).

For this reason, we have:

• Signs of Station Principles (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)
• Half -season signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius)
• Signs signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces)

Explanation of cardinal signs

In an astral chart, we can have a majority of cardinal signs, or a mixture of cardinal and mobile signs, or cardinal and fixed signals.

ATTRIBUTIONSECRIPTION OFFINITION Cardinal signs are one of the three modalities (cardinal, fixed and mutable) of astrology. They mean the beginning of a new station and are known for starting change, leadership and action. Characteristics cardinal signs are proactive, dynamic, ambitious and usually take the initiative in their efforts. They are associated with new beginnings and a strong sense of determination. Definition and characteristics of cardinal signs

Combinations can be different. For example, if we have a prevalence of cardinal and mobile signs, we could have a curious, flexible person, who loves new things, which is very proactive when it comes to starting something new, but that can have some difficulties in carrying out what has begun. .

The signs of the start of the station correspond to the months in which the station changes. The «cardinal points» of the year (the solstices and equinoxes) are those «doors» that open the new stations and radically change the climatic and environmental conditions, but also social habits, culture phases, etc.

Precisely because of this correspondence with the cardinal points of the year, these 4 signs are called «cardinal signs», and they are:

• Aries (Cardinal de Fuego) starts spring on March 21 (spring equinox)
• Cancer (Cardinal of Water) starts summer on June 22 (Summer Solstice)
• Libra (Cardinal of the Air) begins fall on September 23 (autumn equinox)
• Capricorn (Cardinal de Earth) starts winter on December 22 (Winter Solstice)

Precisely because they are at the beginning of each station and because they must express enough force to mark the «change» from one station to another, the cardinal signs feel comfortable with the beginnings and the news, while continuity is not their strong point.

They can be considered initiators, capable of putting their ideas into practice and achieving their objectives.
