Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Moon sign?

Your Moon sign is the zodiac sign the Moon was passing through when you were born. Your Sun sign describes your identity; your Moon sign describes your emotional nature, instincts and what makes you feel safe.

Why does the Moon sign calculator need my birth time?

The Moon moves about 13 degrees a day, so it changes zodiac sign every two to three days. If it changed sign on your birthday, only the time of birth tells which sign is yours. Without a time we use midday and warn you when the day is borderline.

Which zodiac does this use?

The tropical zodiac used in Western astrology, measured from the spring equinox. Vedic (sidereal) astrology places the Moon roughly 24 degrees earlier, often one sign back.

What is the difference between a Moon sign and a moon phase?

The Moon sign is where the Moon was against the zodiac; the moon phase is how much of it was lit by the Sun. This calculator shows both, because together they describe your emotional style and your approach to life.
