Zodiac Sign Calculator
What is my zodiac sign? That is usually the first question people ask. Enter your birthdate and we show your Western sun sign, plus its element, modality, and ruling planet. No account needed.
Curious about Vedic Moon (Janma Rashi) or rising/Lagna? Try the calculators below once you have time and place.
How we calculate
Your birth date maps to a Western sun sign using standard month and day ranges (Capricorn through Sagittarius). We also show element, modality, and ruling planet.
This is the same sun-sign logic used on the home reader's Western card. If your birthday is near a cusp, birth time helps when you try the Moon and rising tools.
- Input: birth date (mm/dd/yyyy)
- Calendar: tropical zodiac solar months
- Output: sign name, symbol, element, modality, ruler
- Not a full natal chart, no houses, aspects, or progressions
Sun, Moon, and rising: three different questions
Your sun sign is the familiar label like I am a Libra. Moon speaks more to emotional habit (here we use sidereal Moon for Vedic rashi). Rising on this site means sidereal Lagna (Lahiri), same as the Vedic Rising Sign Calculator, and needs birth time and place because it is the sign on the eastern horizon when you were born.
About cusp birthdays
Born on a boundary date? Sites sometimes disagree by a day. We use standard tropical ranges. If you are near a cusp, birth time helps when you move on to Moon and rising tools.
Frequently asked questions
Is the calculator free?
Yes. It is free, instant, and private to your browser.
Why doesn't this match my Vedic sign?
Western sun sign uses the tropical zodiac. Vedic Janma Rashi uses the sidereal Moon. They often differ. Try the Vedic Moon Sign Calculator for that view.
