Important note
Astrology's ability to predict personality or the future has not been scientifically validated. This tool is for fun and general knowledge; we advise against basing health, money or relationship decisions on a sign. The traits in the table are traditional interpretations, not a personal assessment.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my zodiac sign?
Choose your date of birth and the tool shows which date range it falls into. On boundary days (around the 20th-23rd) the sign can shift by a day depending on the year.
Is a sun sign the same as a rising sign?
No. Your sign is the sun sign and depends only on your birth date. A rising sign needs birth time and place; this tool does not calculate it.
Is astrology scientific?
No. Astrology's ability to predict personality or the future has not been scientifically validated. The tool is for fun and general knowledge; do not base important decisions on a sign.
What do element and modality mean?
In astrology the twelve signs are grouped into four elements (fire, earth, air, water) and three modalities (cardinal, fixed, mutable). These are traditional classifications.
