October 14 zodiac sign: Libra, third decan
If you were born on October 14, your sign is Libra, the air sign ruled by Venus: the Sun is in Libra on this date in every year from 1980 to 2030. The Sun sits about 21° into Libra on this date, in the third decan, where Libra's core takes on a Jupiter flavour. Here's what the date fixes, and what only your birth time can tell you.
Your sign: Libra
The cardinal air sign that lives in relationship and refuses to choose between two goods.
A Libra Sun is built around fairness and the relational fabric. You're allergic to bullies and to anyone who treats other people as means rather than ends. You see all sides — the gift and the curse of your sign — and you're often the person who can name what each side actually wants when everyone else has lost the thread.

The date fixes the Sun; the hour fixes the rest. A Libra born October 14 around sunrise has Libra rising, and a different first impression from one born at dawn. Your rising sign needs the birth time; the twelve Libra Sun combinations show what each one changes.

In 23 of those 51 years (45%) the Moon changed sign during October 14 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 October 14 in 1989 and 2008, and new in 1985, 2004, and 2023.
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 third decan of Libra
Each sign is divided into three 10° decans, and each decan has a sub-ruler that shades the sign's core. Degrees 20–30 of Libra belong to Jupiter: where you grow, where you find meaning, and where life tends to be generous to you. Read it as Libra with a Jupiter accent — the air 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 Libras born on October 14 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 October 14?
October 14 is Libra, the cardinal air sign ruled by Venus. The Sun sits at roughly 21° Libra on this date, in the third decan.
What decan is October 14?
The third decan of Libra (20°–30°), sub-ruled by Jupiter. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here where you grow, where you find meaning, and where life tends to be generous to you.
What tarot card is October 14?
In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the third decan of Libra it is the Four of Swords (rest, recovery, contemplation). 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 October 14?
It depends on the year, and in 45% of years on the hour too. For example: in 1980, Sagittarius; in 1990, Leo or Virgo; in 2000, Aries or Taurus; in 2010, Capricorn; in 2020, Virgo. Over 1980–2030 the Moon on October 14 was most often in Virgo. A birth time and place pin it down.
Does everyone born on October 14 have the same chart?
No. They share the Sun in Libra, 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 October 14 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
