We derive these signs from the constellations that mark out the path that the sun appears to take through the year. You might think that dates in a horoscope correspond to when the sun passes through each constellation. But they don't, much of the time, because astrology and astronomy are different systems.
The astrological signs are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. The Western zodiac originated in Babylonian astrology, and was later influenced by the Hellenistic culture.
To determine your zodiac sign, look up your date of birth and associate it with the corresponding sun sign. Your lunar sign is based on the Moon's position at the time of your birth. You can use online calculators to obtain this precise information.
