Your birthsign, also known as your zodiac sign, is determined by the position of the sun on the day of your birth. To discover your specific sign, you'll need to know your exact birth date.
Understanding Astrological Birthsigns
Astrology uses the concept of the zodiac, an imaginary belt in the sky through which the Sun, Moon, and planets appear to move. This belt is divided into twelve equal sections, each corresponding to a zodiac sign. These signs are often associated with distinct personality traits, strengths, and weaknesses.
The most commonly referred to system in Western astrology is the tropical zodiac, which is based on the Earth's seasons and the equinoxes. Each sign is assigned a specific date range, typically lasting about a month.
