1st decan of Aries: Mars
Each sign is divided into three decans, 10° slices that the Sun crosses in about ten days each. March 28 falls in the first decan of Aries (about March 21–30), which the traditional Chaldean system assigns to Mars. Astrologers say that adds drive, courage and a direct approach.
Mars makes this stretch of the sign more assertive and action-minded — these are people who move first and think about the details on the way.

Aries love and compatibility

What zodiac sign is March 28?
March 28 falls in Aries, which runs from March 21 to April 19 in the tropical zodiac. The Sun changes sign at a slightly different moment each year, so the boundary can fall a day or so either side of these dates. If you were born close to the edge, your birth year, time and place decide it.
Is March 28 a cusp birthday?
Not by the usual definition, which counts the first and last couple of days of a sign. March 28 is day 8 of Aries season, so it is normally read as a clear Aries birthday.
Which decan is March 28?
March 28 is in the first decan of Aries (March 21–30). In the traditional Chaldean system this decan is ruled by Mars, which astrologers say adds its own flavour to Aries. Some modern astrologers assign decan rulers by element instead, which gives different planets, and decans are strictly 10° slices of the zodiac, so the date range is approximate.
What are the birthstone and flower for March?
The modern birthstone for March is Aquamarine and the birth flower is the daffodil. These come from calendar tradition rather than astrology, and the lists vary by country and source.
