How it's calculated

Frequently asked questions
I was born in January or February — is my Chinese sign right?
The Chinese year starts at Lunar New Year (late January to mid-February). If you were born before it, you belong to the previous year's animal.
Why do some sites show different sign dates?
The Sun's entry into each sign shifts by a day depending on the year and time zone. Birthdays on a cusp may belong to either sign.
Is astrology scientific?
No — this is for fun and cultural interest.
