Does Your Star Sign Really Affect Your Personality?

Does Your Star Sign Really Affect Your Personality?

Whether you are a believer or a non-believer, many people are intrigued as to how their star sign affects their personality, their relationships and the type of person they are drawn to.

There are many facts and myths surrounding star signs, and many people simply find it fun to indulge in reading about their own star sign. However, often they will find similarities that are true to them and their lives, and this can leave them feeling both uneasy and amazed. Here’s why.

Many things contribute to your personality, including your surroundings, your upbringing and your genetic makeup, but also the time of year you were born and your sun sign.

If you were born at the start of a zodiac cycle or at the very end, you may display personality traits from both yours and the preceding or following sign. With billions of people in the world and only 12 star signs, it would be unrealistic to assume there are only 12 different types of personalities in the world. Whatever you believe, many people are committed to the idea that the movement of the sun at the time of our birth does impact our behavior to some degree.

It is not only the date and time of our birth that count but also the individual planet aligning with the sun at that exact moment.
