What’s a Cusp?

If you are born on a cusp, it means that you're born during days that fall at the end or beginning of two Zodiac Signs and you are influenced by both Signs. Some Astrologers don't believe in cusps. Others believe that a cusp is only the last day of a Zodiac Sign or the first day of the next. Some Astrologers believe there is a period of almost a week when you can be a cusp. There are a total of 12 cusps and the first is the Aries Taurus cusp. The last is the Pisces Aries cusp. Each cusp is named after the distinctive energy that it embodies.
Your Sun Sign represents the core of your birth chart. If you are on a cusp, you will feel the influence of both Signs. It doesn't dilute your Zodiac sign, but it very much enhances it, complicates it, and deepens it. One thing to know about your best and worst traits, they're pretty much the same thing. You will get good and bad traits from both sides if you're on a cusp. You have the ability to turn the negative side of your traits into something positive and make your worst weaknesses your greatest strengths. Something else you can do is focus on virtues and embody them well. Learn how here: What is a Virtue and How Can You Embody it?
Aries Traits
Aries is the first Sign in the Zodiac and the dates for Aries are from March 21st to April 19th. Their best traits is that they are energetic, natural born leaders, and they have a high level of emotional sensitivity. On the downside, they can be highly impulsive.
Energetic
Fire Signs are known for being high energy. It seems like they never run out of gas, especially as children. They will run circles around their parents and all of the other kids around them. Getting them to sit still for two minutes might seem impossible, but they will be some of the fittest children in their group. They seem to have a tireless energy for getting up, getting active, and getting things done. This earns them the admiration of some people and the jealousy of others. One thing is for sure, If an Aries is enthusiastic about something, they will never seem to get tired.
Natural Born Leaders
Aries has a take charge attitude and they have the confidence to go with it. They seem to just naturally know the best way to get things done, the best ways to manage people, and the best ways to organize things. There's a secret, though. They don't like being told what to do. That helps to motivate them to be in a leadership position. They don't necessarily need to be everyone's boss. They do need to have a high level of autonomy and they need and deserve the respect for their expertise. They are great at getting new things off the ground, motivating people to help them, and keeping things moving. Great leaders are self-starters.

Sensitive
One thing a lot of people don't understand about people born in the Aries Zodiac sign is they have a high level of emotional sensitivity. They felt things very deeply. They love passionately and they feel distaste just as passionately. They might come across as some of the strongest people who you meet, but they have very delicate feelings. There's no reason to push their buttons, try to manipulate them, or deliberately try to hurt them. It is easy to emotionally cut an Aries to the core. If they love you, they make sure you know it. If they dislike you, they make sure you know that too. They're not just sensitive to their own feelings, though, they care deeply about others.
Impulsive

Remember that we said Aries people are high energy and sensitive. Well, that can make them impulsive sometimes. They can make decisions without thinking things through, and they're not afraid of things like some other Signs are. If they get excited about something, they will leap before looking. That includes leaping into a relationship with someone they really don't know, quitting a job because they're mad as hell, or blowing money on an impulse buy because it excites them. Aries people believe that to be alive is to be happy and experience things on their terms. Some people say it gets them in trouble sometimes, but they say they're just doing what they want. If you’re feeling impulsive about needing to complain, there is a better way to complain. Learn how to complain the right way and get results here: How to Make a Complaint That Gets Results
Taurus Traits
Born between April 20th and May 20th, Taurus is the second Sign of the Zodiac. Tauruses are no less memorable than Aries people. They have their best traits of things like loyalty and being nurturing, and their worst traits of things like being stubborn.
Loyal
When a Taurus loves you, they love you for life. They are dedicated lovers, die hard friends, and reliable family members. They go out of their way to make sure that the people that they want to have in their lives know that they are with them for good. They're not a wishy washy friend who will ditch you when they find something that they would rather do. They really don't care what they're doing as long as they do it together with you. They will have your back when other people betray you, take care of you when you need it, and make sure that you never want for anything.

Nurturing

If you need to be taken care of, reach out to a Taurus, because they've got you covered. They will feed you, drive you to any place you need to go, pay your bills, and try their best to anticipate your every need and desire. They live to take care of people, and if they love you, you will always be taken care of. They will also try to take care of you even if you tell them not to. You might accuse them of butting in, being suffocating, or imposing their opinions on you when you're just trying to live your own life. It's a bad idea to be terribly resistant when your Taurus is trying to take care of you, because everybody wants your Taurus to take care of them.
Bossy
Tauruses don't try to push people around, but they manage to do it sometimes. It's not that they think they are superior people. The thing is, they've worked very hard to try and figure out the best way of doing things. They care so much that you have the best of everything, so they can be a little pushy about informing you how they think you ought to do everything. They can be very persistent and try to talk you into doing things their way. Their heart is in the right place, even if it's annoying. They can be bossy and argumentative in fights too.

Stubborn
When a Taurus makes up their mind, good luck changing it. They are creatures of habit. They also establish their own habits, and once they establish that, it's very difficult to get them to change. They build their lives around what they feel is comfortable and their habits that work for them comfort them greatly. Never mind the fact that what they think is best isn't best for you. They think they know best. Express appreciation for them trying to help, and do things your own way anyhow.

Aries Taurus Cusp Traits
The Aries Taurus cusp is called the Cusp of Power. When you combine these Signs, you get some interesting traits. The impulsiveness of Aries is balanced with the more grounded side of Taurus. They will be passionate lovers but loyal ones. They will be extremely headstrong, but they will also be very honest.
Calculated Risks
Taurases are more careful about taking risks than Aries people are. When you blend these two Signs, you get someone who knows how to calculate risks. They know how to look before they leap, but they will take that leap when they feel like it's right. They are also excellent at giving people advice about taking chances.
Loyal Lovers
Aries lovers have an explosive, passionate side. Taurus lovers are highly loyal and want to make sure you know it. This cusp creates a lover who is both passionate and loyal. Sensuality is very important to both of these signs, but they will be highly focused on finding someone who they have a personal connection to share that side of themselves with. If an Aries Taurus cusp chooses you as a lover, they will focus all of their attention on you. Read about using Astrology for love predictions here: Using Astrology for Daily Love Predictions
Headstrong
Taurus and Aries are both headstrong Sign, so you get someone who's twice as stubborn and headstrong if they are on the cusp of Aries and Taurus. They know what they believe, and they stick by it, so good luck trying to convince them otherwise. It can be like pulling teeth to get them to listen, but they're not cold hearted. If they love and respect you, they will pay attention to what you're saying, but if they've already made-up their mind, you may as well let it go.
Truthful
Some people don't like to hear the truth. If you're one of those people, you will want to steer clear of speaking with an Aries Taurus cusp, especially if you're looking for advice. Being nurturing and a natural born leader will impart quite a bit of wisdom on these cusps. They know what they're talking about because they're smart, they've been paying a lot of attention, and they learn a lot along the way. They are happy to share all they know and you will learn a lot from them.
