Born early in June

A person born during the first part of June normally has the Sun in Gemini. Gemini is a mutable air sign traditionally ruled by Mercury.

Born late in June

A person born during the later part of June normally has the Sun in Cancer. Cancer is a cardinal water sign traditionally ruled by Moon.

What the month cannot tell you

A birth month can narrow down the tropical Sun sign, but it cannot identify the Moon sign, rising sign, houses or exact planetary positions. Those require a chart calculated for a specific time and place.
