June 29 zodiac sign: Cancer, first decan
If you were born on June 29, your sign is Cancer, the water sign ruled by Moon: the Sun is in Cancer on this date in every year from 1980 to 2030. The Sun sits about 7° into Cancer on this date, in the first decan, where Cancer's core takes on a Venus flavour. Here's what the date fixes, and what only your birth time can tell you.
Your sign: Cancer
The cardinal water sign that protects what it loves and remembers everything.
A Cancer Sun is built around emotional intelligence. You feel the room before anyone has spoken; you know who's about to cry, who's lying, and who's having a bad week. This is a real gift. It's also exhausting. The world doesn't have an off switch for empathy, and you absorb things you didn't sign up to absorb.

The date fixes the Sun; the year and hour fix the rest. A Cancer born June 29 with the Moon in Capricorn runs on a different inner weather from one with the Moon in Cancer: see Cancer Sun, Capricorn Moon. Your rising sign needs the birth time; the twelve Cancer Sun combinations show what each one changes.

In 22 of those 51 years (43%) the Moon changed sign during June 29 itself, so in those years the birth time decides the Moon as well as the rising sign. Cells with an arrow mark them, with the UTC time of the change. The Moon was exactly full on June 29 in 1988 and 2026, and new in 1984, 2003, and 2022.
Find your birth year. One sign means the Moon spent the whole UTC day there; an arrow means it changed sign that day, at the UTC time shown: born before it, the first sign; after it, the second. The Moon sign calculator settles it in seconds; your birth chart adds the rising sign and houses.
Times in UTC: a birth late in the evening in the Americas, or early in the morning in Asia, can fall on the neighbouring UTC date.

Your decan: the first decan of Cancer
Each sign is divided into three 10° decans, and each decan has a sub-ruler that shades the sign's core. Degrees 0–10 of Cancer belong to Venus: how you love, what you find beautiful, and what you value. Read it as Cancer with a Venus accent — the water core is unchanged, the emphasis moves.

What the date can't tell you
The Sun is one placement out of ten. Your Moon sign changes every two to three days, so Cancers born on June 29 in different years have different Moons; your rising sign changes every two hours and needs a birth time and place. Those two carry most of what people mean by "personality" in a chart.

Common questions
What zodiac sign is June 29?
June 29 is Cancer, the cardinal water sign ruled by Moon. The Sun sits at roughly 7° Cancer on this date, in the first decan.
What decan is June 29?
The first decan of Cancer (0°–10°), sub-ruled by Venus. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here how you love, what you find beautiful, and what you value.
What tarot card is June 29?
In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the first decan of Cancer it is the Two of Cups (partnership, mutual attraction, connection). It's a birthday card in the same way a sun sign is — one lens, not a verdict.
What Moon sign is someone born on June 29?
It depends on the year, and in 43% of years on the hour too. For example: in 1980, Capricorn; in 1990, Virgo or Libra; in 2000, Taurus or Gemini; in 2010, Aquarius; in 2020, Libra or Scorpio. Over 1980–2030 the Moon on June 29 was most often in Taurus and Libra. A birth time and place pin it down.
Does everyone born on June 29 have the same chart?
No. They share the Sun in Cancer, but the Moon changes sign every two to three days, the rising sign every two hours, and the outer planets by year. Two people born June 29 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
