Born on May 11 — who are you?
Everything the date itself can tell: the zodiac sign with its element and ruling planet, the character it carries, the birthday number from numerology — and who it gets along with.
Born on May 11 means your zodiac sign is Taurus.
Taurus runs from April 20 to May 20.
The element is Earth; the ruling planet is Venus, which governs love, attraction, and values.
The character of the sign
Three words
In one line: builds slowly and doesn't let go easily.
The recurring struggle: can dig in out of habit even after something's stopped working.
Decan
This date falls in decan 3 of three.
The decan runs from May 11 to May 20.
Every sign is split into three decans of ten degrees each, and every decan is coloured by a sign of the same element. This one is coloured by Capricorn; its ruling planet is Saturn.
What that colouring adds: it plays the long game and takes the responsibility seriously.
Today's Capricorn horoscope →Birthday number
Your birthday number is 11.
In numerology it stands for this: A master number — heightened intuition and the ability to sense what others miss, carried alongside the more grounded pull of a 2.
Out of balance it looks like this: can tip into nervous energy or self-doubt when that sensitivity isn't given anywhere to go.
Compatibility
The easiest fit is usually Cancer, Virgo, Capricorn and Pisces — same element, or the one that feeds it.
Scorpio sits directly across the wheel: magnetic, because each holds what the other left out.
The most friction tends to come from Leo and Aquarius — they push in the same way at the same time.
