The 2022 horoscope: what is a decan and how to know yours?

Even if you don’t believe in astrology, chances are you don’t know at least your astrological sign. But, perhaps you have seen it in the newspapers and magazines, the astral predictions are often finer for each of the 12 zodiac signs. Below the predictions for Aquarius, Capricorn or Aries, you will often find the inscriptions “1st, 2nd or 3rd decan”. We know its sign but more rarely its decan.

Each astral sign is divided into 3 equal parts. Each of these third parties is called “decan”. You only have to know your date of birth to know your decan. Those who were born during the first third of the period of the given sign are of the first decan and so on.

For astrologers, like Christine Haas, knowing your decan allows you to have more precise predictions about your future and your character. For even greater precision, astrologers often recommend knowing your ascending even your complete horoscope.
