Whether you believe it or no, astrology was trending in 2018, but especially now in 2019. People want something to believe in (I don’t blame them) and why not believe in your astrological zodiac signs specific to you! Each person has something called a star sign, a moon sign and a rising sign that is all dependent on the day, time and place you were born. There is actually an app called “Co-star” where you can type in all the info specific to you and observe all parts of your chart (I highly recommend this to get the full idea about your sign). On the app, you can connect with friends, see their charts as well as see your compatibility. The app will even notify you with areas like creativity, thinking, self, love and social life and how they’re changing in your current life. 

Star Sign

Your star sign determines your identity, “role” in life and ego. It is the true core of who you are and is the sign probably know. Specifically, your star sign reflects the position the sun was in when you were born. Therefore, it has a very strong influence on your character, personality, and emotions when it comes to who you are. 

Moon Sign

This is your sign reflecting where the moon was when you were born. Your Moon sign rules over your mood, emotions, soul, and inner feelings. It most accurately reflects your personality when you’re alone and comfortable with your thoughts and feelings and therefore is the sign you most think of yourself as. 

Rising Sign

Your rising sign or your ‘ascendant’ is the sign that was rising over the eastern horizon when you were born. It will affect the way you come across to others, your attitude, your outward presence and your ‘mask’ you present to people. 

Once you are able to piece together these parts of your chart, you will most likely be able to get a clearer understanding of where parts of your personality lie within your signs, why you act a certain way, and why you are the way you are.
