June zodiac signs
June has two zodiac signs: Gemini and then Cancer. From 1950 to 2010, the Sun entered Cancer on June 20 in 1 years, June 21 in 53 years and June 22 in 7 years, in UTC.
June birthdays go from Gemini's talk to Cancer's memory, with the change around the June solstice, the longest day in the north. Gemini is read as light on its feet and curious about people, and Cancer as protective and slow to forget. In love, the first wants a good conversation and the second wants to know you'll come home. It is a month that tends to produce good listeners of two different kinds.

How these dates are worked out
We take each position from astronomy-engine, the open-source astronomy library behind our birth charts, at noon UTC on the date, in the tropical zodiac our charts use. Changes of sign and New and Full Moons are searched to the minute in UTC, and eclipses are dated by the moment they peak. If you were born close to a change, your birth time and place decide. How we calculate the sky shows the checks.
