The rhythm of the seasons is a way to understand astrology, and cardinal signs begin each new season (in tropical astrology.) Aries begins with Spring Equinox, Cancer is in synch with Summer Solstice; Libra begins with Autumn Equinox and Capricorn's first day aligns with the upcoming Winter Solstice (Dec 22nd). The cardinal turning points of the solar year ring in a mini cycle that is followed by the fixed (deepening) and mutable signs (dispersing, preparing for next season).
The cardinal signs are at the starting line, eager to go forward into the new. Teens with cardinal Sun signs carry those traits of taking charge, and beginning. Cardinal teens are natural born leaders, though their style is very different in each, since the four elements (Fire, Water, Air, Earth) initiate in very different ways.
- Teen Aries:raring to go, competitive, confident, needs many outlets for explosive energy.
- Teen Cancer: secretly ambitious, emotionally intense, a kind friend.
- Teen Libra: trendsetter, a powerful way with words, thrives in strong friendships.
- Teen Capricorn: dependable, wicked (gallows) humor, mature beyond years.
