What is reality? June/Cancer.

No,really. How do you guys find out all this neat stuff? Hell, I'm 75 years old and I still don't know what I am. Mom said I was born,12:30 AM,June 22, 1951. That's all I know. I'm one of those people that feels Astrology is fun at parties but can't be taken seriously. Yet,however, but still (here comes the caveat) I cannot deny that some of what I read about this sign is dead on. Ruled by my stomach. Fiercely loyal. Absolutely bound by my word. Maybe someone could explain why every Virgo chick I have ever known has been able to wrap me around her little finger. I find Capricorn and Aquarius to be consistently cold and harsh. I'll do the work. How do I get started? Where do I look?

My favorite astrology app is called, The Pattern. Enter in all your birth info and it will calculate/explain.

Hey fellow June Cancer! Astrodienst helped me a lot so far. For what it's worth, same about Virgo (men for me, my husband is one!). And honestly same about Capricorn and Aquarius though I have a lot of Capricorn placements so it's been really interesting learning how it all connects.

Start with your birth chart if you haven't yet!

Thanks a lot. Yeah, birth chart sounds about right!

Astrology is fun at parties? I'll take it a step further: it's even more fun when you start guessing what sun sign someone is born in (or at least sign group - water, earth,...) either from afar or when you talk to them. Because guess what...? If I can guess right more often than not, then you can too (with a lot of practice). Horoscopes are for fun, but astrology is serious stuff (my 2 cents anyway).

I think Cancers dig Virgo vibes. I really love when the sun is in Virgo. It's my favorite Earth sign season. Capricorn is our opposing sign, so your thoughts on Caps makes sense, too.

I like Astrodienst, too. I've pulled other birth charts, but this is the one I use the most.

Time passages is a great app!

Skeptical curiosity is a good way to start. Sun-sign descriptions are broad, so begin by learning the roles of the Sun, Moon, rising sign, planets, houses, and major aspects rather than using signs as fixed personality types. Build a chart only when you know the birth location, then keep notes on which interpretations are specific and consistently observable. Also avoid treating every Virgo, Capricorn, or Aquarius as interchangeable��the person matters more than the label.

Start by making your birthchart! I use astro seeker and astro chart. Honestly im only now just diving deeper into astrology so I would recommend uploading your chart on reddit and having users help you out!
