What it means to be born on April 20

A birthday on the 20th of April falls under Taurus. Taurus is a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus, associated in tradition with steadiness, comfort and the pleasures of the senses. The bull represents its patient, unmovable nature. Taurus season covers the heart of spring.

April 20 sits on the Aries and Taurus boundary

This date is one of the twelve changeovers in the zodiac. A tropical sign begins at the moment the sun reaches a particular point, and that moment drifts by roughly six hours a year before a leap day pulls it back. On a boundary date the crossing can therefore land on either side of the calendar day, depending on the birth year and the time zone. Charts that publish fixed dates, including ours, round it.

In practice that means a birthday on April 20 is Taurus in most years and Aries in some. Only an ephemeris for the exact birth year and time settles it. The full list of boundaries is in the cusp guide.

What weekday April 20 falls on
