Decans divide the zodiac signs into three parts, each representing a sign in the same element. If you look at your natal chart, you’ll see that the Sun (and other personal planets) each have a degree right above them. Each sign ranges from 0-29° degrees. From 0-9°, it is the first decan, usually the first ten days of a sign. The next ten days represent the second decan which is 10-19° degrees and the third decan is 20°-29°, the final ten days of the sign. When you have other personal planets closer to the neighboring signs, it makes the distinctions between the same zodiac signs in different months more pronounced.
