← March birthdays

Born on March 20.


The solar coordinate

On March 20 the Sun stands at 29°39′ Pisces – 0°22′ Aries. The span, measured at noon UTC across 2024–2027, is why the atlas quotes a range and not a single degree: the calendar drifts against the sky through the leap-year cycle, and your birth year and hour decide where in this band your own Sun sits. This date straddles the Pisces–Aries boundary — in some years the Sun has not yet crossed into Aries at this hour, which is why "cusp" birthdays genuinely need a birth time to settle the sign.

Decan and bound

The degree falls in the 1st decan of Aries, whose Chaldean ruler is Mars, and inside the Egyptian bound of Jupiter. In traditional practice these sub-rulers shade how the Aries Sun expresses itself — a Mars-toned Aries rather than a generic one.

Transits to this degree in 2026

  • Uranus forms a sextile to the March 20 solar degree within 1.7° — a slow transit that colors this birthday year, not just the day.
  • Neptune conjoins the March 20 solar degree within 1.8° — a slow transit that colors this birthday year, not just the day.
