I don’t know my birth time

Time basisClocks follow your time zone’s standard meridian, so the Sun at your birthplace can run minutes ahead of or behind the clock. Longitude correction fixes that offset; true solar time also adds the seasonal equation of time (±16 min). Rat-hour rule (23:00–00:59)Only matters if you were born between 23:00 and 23:59. Under the late rule the Day pillar stays on the same day and the hour stem follows the next day. Most modern practitioners use the early Rat-hour rule.

Why does birth time need correcting? ▾

Solar time, not clock time. In BaZi the hour pillar, and the day pillar near midnight, follow where the Sun actually was. Clock time is set for a whole time zone, so at your birthplace the Sun may cross the meridian earlier or later than clock noon. We use the longitude of your birthplace to correct for that, and can also add the equation of time (from −14 min in February to +16 min in November).

Daylight saving time is taken from your browser’s time zone database for the birth date, so summer-time births are converted to standard time automatically.

Whichever basis you pick, the “Pillars under each time basis” panel shows every combination side by side. If they differ, choose the one closest to the time on your birth certificate.

About your zodiac sign

Your zodiac sign, or Sun sign, is the sign the Sun occupied on your birthday. The twelve signs began in Mesopotamia thousands of years ago, passed through Greek astronomy and became the basis of the daily horoscopes many people read today.

How it works

Fate Hall finds your sign from your birth date, using the traditional date ranges, and draws a fresh daily horoscope for your sign from the date, with star ratings for overall luck, love, money, health and work or study. The page also shows your sign’s element (Fire, Earth, Air or Water) and ruling planet, a lucky colour and number, and which signs are traditionally said to suit it.

A Sun sign is only one part of astrology. For the full picture — Moon, rising sign and planets — see your birth chart and the guide to Sun, Moon and Rising signs.

Common question

Why is my sign different on another website? The Sun changes sign on slightly different dates each year, so people born on a cusp day can see different signs in lists that use fixed dates. Your birth chart calculates the Sun’s exact position for your birth time and settles it.
