About Zodiac Sign Finder
The Zodiac Sign Finder turns a birth date into the two astrological labels most people are curious about: the Western (tropical) star sign and the Chinese zodiac animal.
Enter the month, day and year you were born and the tool tells you which of the twelve sun signs the date falls into, along with the sign’s symbol, its classical element (Fire, Earth, Air or Water), its traditional ruling planet, and the calendar range the sign covers.
The sun-sign boundaries used here follow the widely published tropical dates, and the tool handles the awkward cases correctly: Capricorn wraps across New Year from late December into mid-January, and a birthday that lands exactly on a cusp date is assigned to the sign that begins that day.
The Chinese zodiac animal is derived from the birth year using the twelve-year repeating cycle, so a 1990 birthday returns the same animal as 2002.
Everything is computed locally in your browser.
No birth date is uploaded, logged or stored, which makes the tool safe to use for yourself, family or friends, and it keeps working offline once the page has loaded.
It is handy for filling in a profile, settling a debate, or just satisfying curiosity in a couple of seconds.
FAQ
Which zodiac dates does this use?
It uses the commonly published Western tropical sun-sign date ranges. Birthdays on a cusp date are assigned to the sign that starts on that day.
How is the Chinese zodiac animal calculated?
From the birth year using the repeating twelve-year cycle, so any two years twelve apart share the same animal. It is approximated to the Gregorian year, not the lunar new year.
Is my birth date kept private?
Yes. The calculation runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, logged or stored.
