Zodiac Sign Calculator
The zodiac is a band of 12 constellations that the Sun appears to travel through over the course of a year. Each constellation defines a zodiac sign, and your sign is determined by the Sun's position on your birthday. Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac, which is based on the seasons rather than the actual position of the stars.
The 12 Signs and Their Elements
The 12 signs are grouped into four elements: Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) and Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces). Fire signs are passionate and energetic; Earth signs are grounded and practical; Air signs are intellectual and communicative; Water signs are emotional and intuitive.
Is Astrology Scientific?
Astrology is not a science and has no empirical basis for predicting personality or events. However, many people find zodiac descriptions useful as a tool for self-reflection and conversation. This calculator is provided for entertainment and cultural interest only.
FAQ
Do I need my birth year? No — your zodiac sign only depends on the day and month of birth, not the year. What is the difference between sun sign and rising sign? Your sun sign (what this tool calculates) is based on your birth date. Your rising sign (ascendant) depends on the exact time and location of birth.
