Zodiac Sign Calculator

Find your zodiac sign

Your western zodiac sign, also called your star sign or sun sign, is determined by the position of the sun on the day you were born, which corresponds to a date range in the calendar. This calculator takes your date of birth and returns your sign, its symbol and its element. The twelve signs each span roughly a month, from Aries in late March to Pisces in early March of the following year, and each belongs to one of the four elements: fire, earth, air or water.

The calculation uses the conventional sign date boundaries, so people born near the cusp between two signs get the standard assignment.

Signs and elements

Zodiac signs are a popular part of astrology and everyday culture, used in horoscopes and personality descriptions. The element of a sign, fire, earth, air or water, groups the signs into four families that astrology associates with shared traits. Whether you follow astrology closely or just want to know your sign, this tool gives an instant answer from your birthday.

Sign boundaries can shift by a day in some years because the sun does not cross exactly on the same calendar date each year, so people born right on a cusp may see slight variation. All calculation happens locally in your browser.
