Born on April 20

Your sign: Taurus ♉

A April 20 birthday lands in Taurus (Apr 20 - May 20), the fixed earth sign ruled by Venus. On the 20th of April the Sun travels near the 1st degree of Taurus, early in the sign's month-long season - day 1 of the Taurus year. Venus rules this sign, and it gives you a professional-grade appreciation for comfort - good food, good fabric, a chair worth defending. You build slowly and keep what you build, which is why your friendships tend to be measured in decades.

Your decan

Each sign spans three decans, and the 20th of April falls in the 1st decan of Taurus - the stretch the sign rules for itself, Taurus at full strength with no co-signer. A Taurus undercurrent gives this stretch its patience - the part of you that finishes what the rest of the chart merely starts.

Your birthday number: 2

Long before you chose a favorite number, one chose you - the date on the calendar square where your story starts keeping count. Born on the 20th, you carry the birthday number 2. You hear the sentence under the sentence, which is why friends hand you their tangled situations like knotted necklaces. Partnership is your native weather, and you do your finest work standing beside someone rather than out in front. Softness with a spine defines a birthday on the 20th, where sensitivity matures into real emotional intelligence. Collaboration is where you shine brightest, reading the currents of a group like a river pilot reads water.

The season you arrived in

April gave you rain that quits mid-afternoon and apple blossoms that shrug off a late frost, so hope feels less like a mood to you than a habit. Being born under the year's first real green, right after the fools and the showers, tends to make you quick to laugh and quicker to bloom. Give that season a yin earth temperament to raise and the result is the April 20 character: calendar and constellation finishing each other's sentences.

In love

Tradition scores Taurus highest in love alongside Virgo, Capricorn and Taurus, and a April 20 chart inherits that lean. Friendship runs on slightly different math, and there it is Cancer who comes out ahead. Ease is not the whole story, though: the harder pairings grow people faster, and every match writes its own exceptions.

The one thing to remember

Think of your birthday as a weather report, not a verdict - the sky you were issued says plenty about the climate and nothing about where you decide to walk.
