Chinese Zodiac Calculator

Find your Chinese zodiac animal and year element from your birth date, accurate around Chinese New Year, with a short trait profile.

Looking up what a birth date or a name is said to mean: a sun sign, the rest of a birth chart, a life-path number, or the same for someone else before a conversation about it.

Taking a sun sign as the whole chart. Someone born a day either side of a cusp changes sign depending on the year and the time of day, and the moon and rising signs move much faster than the sun does — a birth time is what separates a chart from a guess.

They sit next to each other but answer different questions. Chinese Gender Predictor: use the traditional Chinese gender chart to guess boy or girl from the mother's lunar age and lunar conception month — either entered manually or derived from dates. Just for fun, not scientific. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.

Birthstone & Zodiac Flower Finder is the closest one after this: Look up the modern birthstone and birth flower for any month, with the meaning and symbolism traditionally linked to them.

Celtic Tree Zodiac Calculator and Zodiac Sign Compatibility Calculator — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.

The positions are computed from real ephemeris arithmetic, not from a fixed table of dates, so a cusp birthday lands on the right side of the boundary for its own year. What those positions are taken to mean is tradition, not measurement, and the tools present it as such.
