Why some sources differ
Popular date tables are rounded calendar conventions. The Sun changes signs at a specific moment, and that moment can fall on different local dates depending on year and time zone.
What a cusp means
A cusp is the boundary between two signs. In standard chart practice, the Sun is in one sign or the other; it is not partly in both. A precise birth time and place can resolve transition-date uncertainty.
Month-by-month shortcut
Most calendar months contain parts of two zodiac signs. January begins with Capricorn and ends with Aquarius; February shifts to Pisces; the pattern continues around the year.
Common mistakes
Do not confuse standard tropical dates with astronomical constellation dates, sidereal zodiac dates, or Chinese zodiac years. Each belongs to a different system.
