February 19 Zodiac Sign

People born on February 19 are Aquarius or Pisces.

Most zodiac date tables put February 19 in Pisces, but the Sun changes sign at a slightly different moment each year. In 171 of the 201 years from 1900 to 2100 it moved from Aquarius into Pisces during February 19 somewhere in the world, and in the other 30 the whole day was Pisces. So a February 19 birthday can be either sign: the year, the hour and the place decide.

What Pisces is like

Element: Water
Modality: Mutable
Ruler: Neptune (traditionally Jupiter)
Usual dates: February 19 to March 20

Pisces has thin walls. A mutable water sign ruled traditionally by Jupiter and modernly by Neptune, Pisces takes the world in without much filter: other people's moods, the atmosphere of a place, the feeling under a piece of music.
