♈︎ Sun at ~4° Aries · first decan · Mars

March 25 zodiac sign: Aries, first decan

If you were born on March 25, your sign is Aries, the fire sign ruled by Mars: the Sun is in Aries on this date in every year from 1980 to 2030. The Sun sits about 4° into Aries on this date, in the first decan, where Aries's core takes on a Mars flavour. Here's what the date fixes, and what only your birth time can tell you.

Your sign: Aries

The first sign of the zodiac — initiator, fighter, and patron of fresh starts.

If your Sun is in Aries, your core identity is built around action. You feel most yourself when you're starting something — a project, a fight, a workout, a brand-new chapter. You hate stagnation more than you hate failure. The slow consensus-building meetings and the relationships that need careful tending? That's not where you shine. You shine in the opening move, the new venture, the moment someone needs to just decide already.

The date fixes the Sun; the year and hour fix the rest. A Aries born March 25 with the Moon in Libra runs on a different inner weather from one with the Moon in Aries: see Aries Sun, Libra Moon. Your rising sign needs the birth time; the twelve Aries Sun combinations show what each one changes.

In the US (2000–2014), an average of 10,970 babies were born on each March 25, rank 294 of 366 dates; Aries is number 8 of 12 signs (8.14%). What's the most common zodiac sign?

The Moon on March 25, 1980–2030

Across the 51 years from 1980 to 2030, the Moon at noon UTC on March 25 was most often in Cancer and Leo (6 years each) and least often in Gemini (2 years). Unlike the Sun, the Moon sign depends on the birth year. On March 25, 2026, the Moon moves from Gemini into Cancer at 10:33 UTC.

In 22 of those 51 years (43%) the Moon changed sign during March 25 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 March 25 in 2005 and 2024, and new in 1982 and 2001.

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 Aries

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 Aries belong to Mars: your drive — how you take action, what makes you angry, and what you fight for. Read it as Aries with a Mars accent — the fire 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 Aries born on March 25 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 March 25?

March 25 is Aries, the cardinal fire sign ruled by Mars. The Sun sits at roughly 4° Aries on this date, in the first decan.

What decan is March 25?

The first decan of Aries (0°–10°), sub-ruled by Mars. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here your drive — how you take action, what makes you angry, and what you fight for.

What tarot card is March 25?

In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the first decan of Aries it is the Two of Wands (planning, decisions, discovery). 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 March 25?

It depends on the year, and in 43% of years on the hour too. For example: in 1980, Cancer or Leo; in 1990, Pisces; in 2000, Sagittarius; in 2010, Cancer or Leo; in 2020, Aries. Over 1980–2030 the Moon on March 25 was most often in Cancer and Leo. A birth time and place pin it down.

Does everyone born on March 25 have the same chart?

No. They share the Sun in Aries, 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 March 25 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
