He said that a planet is the previous sign until it hits the 00 00' exact of the next sign. So they maintain separateness.

This however contradicts the concept of cusps in sun signs.

I still disagree with him.

I think that when you get down to perhaps a half a degree, and then perhaps there is some hint of the flavour for the first half degree as well, there is a wave of influence.

It won't impact like a conjunction between planets etc but will almost be like a leaking of colour that has 'bled' or perhaps vibrated from the defining outline.

That is for planets and objects other than the sun - I believe.

For the sun, the nature of it is quite different to the other astrological objects.

As a sun, I think we are the entire zodiac but just sort of focused in the sun position in the constellations at the time of birth. I think we are all signs led by the sun of birth and so we have dimishing emphasis of other signs all present in our sun nature.

These other sign emphases, become increased by the interplay of the other significant astrology in the horoscope.

Therefore, I think sun cusps have a greater impact and orb of influence than other planet to sign cusps.

Mainly due to the nature of the Sun within the solar system.
