Frequently Asked Questions

What is my zodiac sign based on?

Your zodiac sign (sun sign) is determined by the sun's position in the zodiac constellations on your birth date. Western astrology uses the Tropical zodiac, which is based on seasons rather than actual constellation positions.

What if I was born on a cusp date?

Cusp dates are when the sun transitions between signs (e.g., July 22-23). Your exact sign depends on your birth year, time, and location. Use a detailed birth chart calculator for precision if born within 1-2 days of a sign change.

What are the four zodiac elements?

Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): Passionate, energetic, impulsive. Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): Practical, grounded, reliable. Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): Intellectual, social, communicative. Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): Emotional, intuitive, sensitive.

Is Western astrology the same as Chinese zodiac?

No. Western astrology uses 12 sun signs based on birth month. Chinese zodiac uses 12 animal signs based on birth year (Rat, Ox, Tiger, etc.). They're different systems with different calculation methods and interpretations.

Why do zodiac date ranges vary slightly?

Date ranges can vary by a day depending on the year (leap years) and astrological system used. The Tropical zodiac (Western) is fixed to seasons. The Sidereal zodiac (Vedic) accounts for Earth's precession and differs by ~23 days.
