Born on November 22
A cusp birthday. In most years the Sun crosses from Scorpio into Sagittarius during November 22, so people born this day are one or the other depending on the hour. At noon UTC it's Sagittarius in 67% of years.
Scorpio or Sagittarius? Check your year
The Sun's entry into Sagittarius shifts by a few hours from year to year. Find your birth year, convert your birth time to UTC, and compare: born before the time shown, you're Scorpio; after it, Sagittarius. Years missing from the list had the crossing on a neighbouring day (the Sun was in one sign for the whole of November 22).
Not sure about the time zone or the minutes? Compute your chart — it does the conversion and settles the sign.
Your sign: Sagittarius (or Scorpio)
The mutable fire sign that aims at the bigger picture and refuses to be domesticated.
A Sagittarius Sun is built around expansion and meaning. You're the friend who has lived in three countries, who keeps reading philosophy at 2am, who wants to know what people actually think rather than what they're supposed to say. Your optimism is real — not the brittle "everything happens for a reason" kind, but a genuine sense that life is interesting and worth showing up for.

Your decan: the first decan of Sagittarius
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 Sagittarius belong to Mercury: how you think, learn, communicate, and process information. Read it as Sagittarius with a Mercury accent — the fire core is unchanged, the emphasis moves.
Eight of Wands
Speed · Movement · News. The card assigned to this ten-degree slice of the zodiac — a birthday card in the same sense a sun sign is a birthday sign: one lens on the date, not a verdict.

The Sun is one placement out of ten. Your Moon sign changes every two to three days, so Sagittarians born on November 22 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
Is November 22 Scorpio or Sagittarius?
Both are possible. On November 22 the Sun moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius in most years, at a time that ranges from 00:19 UTC to 21:18 UTC UTC across 1980–2030 (in some years the crossing falls on the neighbouring day). Convert your birth time to UTC and compare it with the crossing for your year in the table above — before it you're Scorpio, after it Sagittarius.
What zodiac sign is November 22?
November 22 is a cusp day between Scorpio and Sagittarius; at noon UTC it falls in Sagittarius in 67% of years between 1980 and 2030. Your birth year and hour decide it.
What decan is November 22?
The first decan of Sagittarius (0°–10°), sub-ruled by Mercury. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here how you think, learn, communicate, and process information.
What tarot card is November 22?
In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the first decan of Sagittarius it is the Eight of Wands (speed, movement, news). It's a birthday card in the same way a sun sign is — one lens, not a verdict.
Does everyone born on November 22 have the same chart?
No. They share the Sun in Sagittarius or Scorpio, 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 November 22 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
