Characters

Sun

personality; how you show up in the world; the style in which you shine

Moon

where you retreat to; how you meet physical and emotional needs; how you respond; your past and childhood

There is a lot of conflicting information on characters’ birthdays. Confirming a character’s birthday is somewhat like confirming what state Springfield is in. Any information about character birthdays are referenced below, but ultimately the assigned sun and moon signs are based on character personalities and emotional responses.
