September 25 zodiac sign: Libra, not Virgo
If you were born on September 25, your sign is Libra, not Virgo: from 1980 to 2030 the Sun always enters Libra on September 22 or 23, so this date is Libra at any hour. The Sun sits about 2° into Libra on this date, in the first decan, where Libra's core takes on a Moon 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 year and hour fix the rest. A Libra born September 25 with the Moon in Leo runs on a different inner weather from one with the Moon in Libra: see Libra Sun, Leo Moon. Your rising sign needs the birth time; the twelve Libra Sun combinations show what each one changes.

In 25 of those 51 years (49%) the Moon changed sign during September 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 September 25 in 1988, 1999, and 2018, and new in 1984 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 Libra
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 Libra belong to Moon: your inner emotional life — what you need to feel safe, how you self-soothe, how you love and are loved. Read it as Libra with a Moon accent — the air core is unchanged, the emphasis moves.
Two of Swords
Stalemate · Difficult choice · Truce. 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.

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 September 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 September 25?
September 25 is Libra, the cardinal air sign ruled by Venus. The Sun sits at roughly 2° Libra on this date, in the first decan.
What decan is September 25?
The first decan of Libra (0°–10°), sub-ruled by Moon. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here your inner emotional life — what you need to feel safe, how you self-soothe, how you love and are loved.
What tarot card is September 25?
In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the first decan of Libra it is the Two of Swords (stalemate, difficult choice, truce). 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 September 25?
It depends on the year, and in 49% of years on the hour too. For example: in 1980, Aries; in 1990, Sagittarius; in 2000, Leo or Virgo; in 2010, Aries or Taurus; in 2020, Capricorn. Over 1980–2030 the Moon on September 25 was most often in Virgo. A birth time and place pin it down.
Does everyone born on September 25 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 September 25 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
