NOT JUST YOUR SUN SIGN.
THE SUN IS ONLY THE START
A chart has more than one chapter.
02 / SUN
Your sense of self
The Sun is traditionally linked with identity, purpose and the qualities you consciously express.
03 / RISING
Your first impression
The sign meeting the eastern horizon at birth. An exact birth time matters — we leave it blank without one.
Venus is more than a love label
In Western astrology, Venus symbolizes attraction, aesthetics, pleasure and what feels worthwhile. A Venus sign describes an interpretive style, not whom you must date. Real relationships depend on behavior, consent, circumstances and communication.
Venus and the Sun are different placements
Venus stays relatively close to the Sun in the sky but can occupy a different sign. We calculate its geocentric tropical longitude using light-time-corrected planetary coordinates. With an unknown time, check the full-day candidates rather than assuming a single noon position is certain.
A real sign-change example
On May 20, 1990 in Shanghai, the Moon moved from Pisces into Aries at approximately 15:31 local time (UTC+09:00, historical daylight saving). At 14:30, it was still in Pisces. Without a time, both signs are possible. Use the example button to compare the exact-time and whole-day results.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Curious about your Moon?
What is my Moon sign?
Your Moon sign is the zodiac sign containing the Moon’s geocentric ecliptic longitude at your birth. In astrology, it is used as a symbol for emotional habits and a sense of safety. It is different from your Sun sign.
Can I find my Moon sign without a birth time?
Often, yes. Enter your date and birthplace and choose “I don’t know my birth time.” We calculate the full local day. If the Moon changes signs, we show both possibilities, the transition time and each sign’s share of the day. Those percentages are time coverage, not a personal probability or personality score.
Why do you need my birthplace?
Your birthplace supplies a historical timezone and coordinates. The timezone turns the clock time on your birth record into UTC. Coordinates are needed for the Rising sign; Moon and planet signs use geocentric positions.
Is this a tropical or sidereal calculator?
This site uses the Western tropical zodiac: twelve equal 30-degree signs measured from the equinox. Sidereal and Vedic calculations use a different reference and may give another sign. We do not currently offer a sidereal calculation.
How accurate is the calculation?
We use Astronomy Engine for astronomical positions and Luxon with the browser’s IANA timezone data. Astronomy Engine targets approximately one arcminute accuracy; this is a library target, not a guarantee for every birth record. Rounded times and incomplete historical timezone records can matter near a sign change.
Do you save my birth details?
Calculations run in your browser. Birth inputs are remembered only on this device when you enable “Remember on this device.” Place searches reach our server. Sharing is optional and sends only the signs and lunar phase you choose to share, never your birth date, time or birthplace.
Do I need a birth time for my Rising sign?
Yes. The Ascendant depends on your exact time and location. We leave it blank when your time is unknown instead of inventing a result. A few minutes can matter near a Rising-sign boundary.
Is astrology scientifically proven?
Astronomical positions can be calculated, but astrological personality and relationship interpretations are not established scientific predictions. Use this site for entertainment and personal reflection, not medical, financial or other professional decisions.
