A wonderful way to admire animals while promoting the importance of conservation
Most of us are familiar with our sun sign in astrology, the zodiac constellation that the sun was in on the day we were born.
Within astrology, planets station between 0 and 29 degrees in a person's chart. This gives mathematical certainty to the shift of each degree and the sun's movement from one sign into another.
The idea is that those on the cusp are a blend of both signs, as the sun is moving between them. But most astrologers disagree.
But for some people, it's a bit less clear-cut. If you were born in the days leading up to and closely after the sun changed signs, you're considered "on the cusp."
While you're only considered to have one sun sign, you might resonate strongly with the traits and qualities of both your sun and the 'cusp' sign for you.
But some astrologers think there is some value to the idea of cusps, and say it's possible the energy can "leak over" from one sign into another.
Water sign Cancer and fire sign Leo make for a volatile pairing deemed the cusp of oscillation. Sensitivity and pride can combine to make these people self-absorbed and dramatic.
Curious Gemini and sentimental Cancer combine on the cusp of magic. People born on this cusp are emotionally intelligent, and trust their instincts.
On the flipside, they can be uplifting for others to be around. They ooze charisma and charm, with a heart of gold and a high level of self-awareness.
Overall, the cusp of power creates natural-born leaders, with Aries' drive carefully tempered by Taurus' power of persuasion.
They have a predisposition towards activism, knowledge, and rousing change. However, they need to watch out for being overly critical, tactless, and controlling.
Idealistic and eccentric, they imagine and feel; dreams and ideas are the home realms of this cusp—practical pursuits are best suited to someone else.
Intellect meets intuition when Aquarius and Pisces meet on the cusp. Aquarius is sensitive to ideas, Pisces is sensitive to the feelings of others. Taken together, their combination creates the cusp of sensitivity, merging mind and emotion.
A dreamer with initiative is formed when Pisces meets Aries on the cusp of rebirth. This cusp can be impulsive and immature, desiring action above pausing to observe the big picture.
Practicality and ideas converge when grounded, material Capricorn and intellect-driven, logical Aquarius meet on the cusp.
When Libra and Scorpio traits combine, it creates the cusp of drama. Cool-headed, fair-minded Libra becomes infused with the intensity of Scorpio.
Dynamic, lively, and happy being the center of attention, people on the cusp of energy between Taurus and Gemini are sensual and outgoing. Down-to-earth and communicative, their socialization skills are outstanding.
The passion of Leo and the patience of Virgo combine in the cusp of exposure. These people aim to impress, holding themselves to a high standard.
A rebel without a cause, Scorpio and Sagittarius combine on the cusp of revolution, which can create polarizing individuals.
When Mars-ruled Aries and Venus-ruled Taurus combine, it's a powerful marriage. They might need to learn how to concede though, when something is no longer right for them.
Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius seeks expansion, while Saturn-ruled Capricorn is a disciplinarian. This powerful combination has the foresight and stamina to bring their vision into fruition.
Venus-ruled Libra and Mercury-ruled Virgo meet at the cusp of beauty, for gracious and generous people who seek to create harmony.
However, this cusp isn't afraid to dive in where others fear to tread. Not every risk they take will pay off, but as long as they don't get stuck on the things that aren't successful, they're bound to find the thing that works.
Bursting with energy, they love nothing more than a good night out. They need to watch out for burnout though, as they can have too much of a good thing!
Capricorn's hardworking nature grounds Aquarius. Here, abstract thoughts are turned into action to create a visionary, someone who has the stamina to bring big dreams to fruition.
Sometimes childlike and affectionate, they are dependable but can be so driven by their emotions that they lose perspective. They need to focus outwards to break out of moody energy.
The cusp of beauty has a natural understanding of what's just and fair. People want to listen to what they have to say. They may need to let go of perfectionism and some overly-idealistic expectations though.
The pursuit to be the best version of themselves, combined with tunnel vision, can lead them to shut themselves off from the rest of the world. Something they need to watch out for!

Seductive and enigmatic, they're sometimes seen as intimidating. They tell the truth and their intuition is second to none. However, they need to watch out for cynicism, and judging people too harshly, too soon.
When Scorpio intensity meets Sagittarius adventurousness, they birth a force to be reckoned with! Beware of trying to tie this person down; their joie de vivre will fizzle out with frustration.
Are you familiar with astrology? Then you've probably heard about cusps at one point or another.
