Frequently asked questions
What zodiac sign am I?
Your zodiac sign (Sun sign) is set by where the Sun was on the day you were born. Enter your birthday above, or find it in the table of dates below.
Why do zodiac sign dates differ between websites?
The Sun enters each sign at a slightly different time every year, and the moment falls on different calendar days in different time zones. People born on the first or last day of a sign — a "cusp" — should use their exact birth date, time and place.
When does the Sun change signs in 2026?
Aquarius 2026-01-20 01:45 UTC; Pisces 2026-02-18 15:52 UTC; Aries 2026-03-20 14:46 UTC; Taurus 2026-04-20 01:40 UTC; Gemini 2026-05-21 00:38 UTC; Cancer 2026-06-21 08:26 UTC; Leo 2026-07-22 19:14 UTC; Virgo 2026-08-23 02:19 UTC; Libra 2026-09-23 00:06 UTC; Scorpio 2026-10-23 09:39 UTC; Sagittarius 2026-11-22 07:24 UTC; Capricorn 2026-12-21 20:51 UTC.
Is there a 13th zodiac sign?
Not in Western astrology. The tropical zodiac divides the ecliptic into twelve equal 30° signs measured from the March equinox; the constellation Ophiuchus is not one of them.
