Zodiac sign on 21 March

On 21 March the Sun changes sign in some years, from Pisces to Aries. If you were born on this day, you are Pisces or Aries, depending on the year and the hour.

The Sun does not enter a new sign at the same hour every year: the calendar year is not exactly as long as the solar year, and the leap day only evens out the difference every four years. In the years below the Sun changed sign on exactly this day, at the time given in UTC (London winter time): if you were born before it, you are Pisces; after it, Aries. In the other years it was Aries all day.

♓︎ Pisces

Pisces closes the zodiac, shortly before the March equinox, and tradition gives it everything that is hard to grasp: empathy, imagination and a fine sense for moods. Pisces takes in what happens around it and therefore needs retreat. Neptune, its modern planet, stands for dreams and the dissolving of boundaries. Its task, it is said, is to feel with others without losing itself in it.

♈︎ Aries

Aries opens the zodiac: the astrological year begins with it, at the March equinox. Tradition describes Aries as a beginner in the truest sense, quick, direct and with little patience for long preambles. Mars, its planet, stands for drive and courage, but also for a love of a fight. What an Aries starts gets momentum; whether it gets finished is another question. Its task, it is said, is to know its own will without walking over others.
