Just about everyone on the planet knows his or her sun sign - it is the one that determines what horoscope you read online or in the newspaper!

In reality, your sun sign is the place on the zodiac that the sun occupied at the time of your birth. It explains your basic outlook on life, your turn-ons and turn-offs and your means of expressing feelings. It is the most basic, but also the most important astrological element in determining who you are. These signs are:

Astrologers interpret the sun signs using three classifications: polarity, modality and element.

Polarity is meant to describe a person's outgoing personality type. Signs with a positive polarity are more extroverted, logical and assertive. Positive polarity signs are Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius. Signs with a negative polarity are more introverted, emotional and receptive. Negative polarity signs are the rest of the zodiac: Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces.

Modality is used to describe the outward expressions of the signs. There are three types: cardinal signs, fixed signs, and mutable signs. Cardinal signs are "go-getters". They make things happen and are comfortable with change. Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn are all cardinal signs. Fixed signs are steadfast and determined. Fixed signs include Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. Mutable signs are the adaptable bunch, flexible in their outward expressions. Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces are mutable signs.

Finally, elements describe the temperment of the different signs. There are four ancient elements (which you probably know): Fire, Earth, Air and Water. The fire signs are active and intense, and include Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. Earth signs are stable and efficient, and inclde Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. Air signs have high intellect and socials skills, and include Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. Water signs have strong intuition, and include Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.
