Your Zodiac sign, also known as your Sun sign, is the core of your astrological identity. It reflects your ego, your basic personality traits, and how you express yourself to the world.

How to Find Your Zodiac Sign

Your Sun sign is determined by the position of the Sun at the exact time of your birth. Because the Sun travels through all 12 signs of the zodiac over the course of a year, finding your sign is as simple as knowing your birthdate.

Elements and Modalities

Every zodiac sign is categorized by an Element and a Modality, which further describe their energy:

  • Elements (Fire, Earth, Air, Water) describe your basic temperament and nature.
  • Modalities (Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable) describe how you act and interact with the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I was born on a "cusp"?

If you were born on the first or last day of a zodiac sign's date range, you are considered to be born on the "cusp." The exact transition time changes slightly every year depending on leap years and time zones. To be 100% certain, you would need to calculate a full birth chart using your exact time and location of birth.

Is my Sun sign the only thing that matters?

Not at all! Your Sun sign is just the tip of the iceberg. Your Moon sign (your emotional inner world) and your Rising sign/Ascendant (how others perceive you) are equally important in painting a complete astrological picture.
