Your Star Sign Is Just the Sun
Your sun sign shows your core essence – yet it is only the beginning. Your Moon sign reveals your emotional world, your Ascendant your presence and the first impression you make. Only all the planets together create your complete, unique character portrait. That's exactly what your personal birth horoscope – astronomically precise from your birth date, time and location.
What Are the Zodiac Signs?
The twelve zodiac signs are the twelve equally sized sections of the zodiac through which the sun travels over the course of a year. Your zodiac sign – your sun sign – is the one in which the sun stood at the moment of your birth. It describes your essence: what drives you, how you shine, and what your soul seeks.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find out my zodiac sign?
Your zodiac sign depends on your birth date – the sun travels through each sign for about a month. If your birthday falls close to a cusp date, the exact time of birth decides; then your personal birth chart gives you reliable clarity.
Can you be born between two zodiac signs?
On cusp days, the sun shifts from one sign to the next – sometimes not until the afternoon. Those born on such a cusp day often carry traits of both signs. Only the calculation with birth date and time provides certainty.
What's the difference between your sun sign and your ascendant?
Your zodiac sign is your sun sign – your inner essence. Your rising sign is the sign that was on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth; it shapes your presence and the first impression others have of you.
Do you know your complete birth chart?
Your zodiac sign is only the sun. Your birth chart also shows your moon, ascendant, and all planets – your complete, unique character portrait.
