APPENDIX 2

 Zodiac Months

Unlike our normal calendar months, Zodiac months can start and end on different days in different years.  To be really precise about knowing the sun sign of someone born on the cusp, the time and place of birth must also be known. However, the small number of medallists that could be changed from one sign to another by having this knowledge is so small as to make little difference to the large significances found in this research.

  The calendar I used for each year is as follows:

 Aries                21 March to 20 April

Taurus             21 April to 21 May

Gemini             22 May to 21 June

Cancer             22 June to 22 July

Leo                  23 July to 23 August

Virgo               24 August to 22 September

Libra                23 September to 22 October

Scorpio            23 October to 21 November

Sagittarius       22 November to 21 December

Capricorn        22 December to 19 January

Aquarius          20 January to 18 February

Pisces              19 February to 20 March
