Zodiac Cusps: The Unique Blend Between Two Signs

Published May 5, 2011 · Updated October 30, 2025 · by dxpnet Astrology Team

People born on the edge of two zodiac signs are said to be on a zodiac cusp carrying traits from both.

These in-between birthdays mark the transition from one sign to the next, creating personalities that are often more complex, adaptable, and dynamic. Whether you’re a Leo-Virgo balancing confidence with perfectionism or a Pisces-Aries mixing intuition with drive, understanding your cusp helps you see why you may not fit neatly into one sign.

Each cusp has its own dates, nickname, element blend, and planetary influences that shape how you love, communicate, and pursue goals.

Each link takes you to a full guide covering:
