Frequently Asked Questions

What is my zodiac sign if I was born on the border between two signs?

The exact border (the "cusp") shifts by about a day depending on the year and the hour of birth, because the Sun does not change signs at midnight. Someone born on 20 March 2026 before 16:46 is Pisces, and someone born after that hour is Aries. The form "What Is My Zodiac Sign?" at the top takes both the year and the hour.

Why do zodiac dates differ between sources?

Because the Sun enters each sign at a different day and hour every year (for example 20 or 21 March for Aries). Most calendars round to the most frequent date, which is why you may see a one-day difference between sources.

What zodiac sign is someone born in January?

Capricorn until about 19 January and Aquarius from about 20 January onward. The same two signs per month apply to every month: see the signs by month above.

Are your zodiac sign and your ascendant the same thing?

No. Your zodiac sign (Sun sign) depends only on your birth date, while the ascendant is the sign rising on the eastern horizon at your exact birth time and place. Two people with the same Sun sign can have completely different ascendants: Ascendant Calculator.
