Why Decans Matter in Your Birth Chart (And How They Reveal Your Subtle Gifts)

Decans add depth to your Sun, Moon, and planets. Discover how these 10° divisions reveal your hidden gifts and personal power.

Two people can both be “Capricorns” and feel nothing alike. Why?
Because each zodiac sign is divided into three 10° segments called decans, and each decan is ruled by another planet, adding nuance and dimension.

Decans are the difference between a chart that feels generic and one that feels personal.

For example:

  • A Capricorn Sun at 3° (1st decan) channels pure Saturn — disciplined, focused, ambitious.

  • A Capricorn Sun at 17° (2nd decan) carries Venus undertones — drawn to beauty, harmony, and building with grace, not just grit.

  • A Capricorn Sun at 25° (3rd decan) carries Mercury’s sharpness — analytical, strategic, often teaching or writing as part of their purpose.

In my Soul Blueprints, I calculate and explain the decans for every planet and angle (Sun, Moon, Rising, Nodes, and beyond).
This reveals:

  • Your subtle personality traits (that standard astrology misses)

  • The planets that secretly guide your instincts and creativity

  • How to practically use these energies in work, love, and daily life

Decans transform your chart into a symphony — where every note is tuned, and every layer matters.
