Calculate your Sun sign ↗The 12 zodiac signs: meanings and elements
Every chart contains all twelve signs. These are traditional symbolic themes—not boxes you have to fit into.
Elements are flavors; modalities are rhythms.
Fire groups Aries, Leo and Sagittarius; earth groups Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn; air groups Gemini, Libra and Aquarius; water groups Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. These are traditional symbolic groupings, not a personality test.
Cardinal signs begin, fixed signs sustain, and mutable signs adapt in this symbolic framework. Every birth chart includes all twelve signs, so explore the combination rather than trying to squeeze yourself into one cosmic box.
The date ranges below are approximate tropical Sun-sign ranges. The year and exact time matter near a boundary; use the Sun sign calculator for a cusp birthday. A sidereal system uses different reference points.
