How to read a August 20 Sun sign

A Sun sign is the sign the Sun occupied at your birth instant. Near an ingress, that instant can fall on either side of the boundary, so people born on August 20 may have different signs in different years.

Enter the birth year, local clock time, and a named time zone such as America/Los_Angeles. The named zone accounts for daylight saving rules on the birth date.

This lookup uses the tropical zodiac and identifies only the Sun sign. Use the chart step for other placements.
