What it means to be born on November 22

November 22 sits on the Scorpio and Sagittarius 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 November 22 is Sagittarius in most years and Scorpio in some. Only an ephemeris for the exact birth year and time settles it. The full list of boundaries is in the cusp guide.
