How to Guess Sun Signs

Guessing someone’s Sun Sign can be done easily, but it does require practice. Knowing someone’s Sun Sign helps to understand them and their attitudes or behavior. However, it’s worth remembering that it’s someone’s Rising Sign rather than Sun Sign that will play the biggest part in how they project themselves – or their ‘outward persona.’

Your Rising Sign represents how you present yourself to the world, want to be seen by others and the ‘mask’ you wear. The word ‘mask’ refers specifically to aspects of your personality you prefer others didn’t know about as opposed to phoniness or insincerity.

Your Sun Sign represents your spirit, heart and all that is important to you. It portrays the nature of your will and purpose in life. It is the center of your being. In other words, your Sun Sign represents the ‘inner’ you.

Although so much depends on factors within someone’s personal chart regarding how they convey themselves to others, it is possible to determine someone’s Sun Sign by simply observing them in many ways.
