Worked example
Born 5 May 1990, 14:30 UTC
Moon in Virgo, 28°29′
Earth · Mutable · Waxing gibbous, 85% lit
- The birth time is already in UTC: 14:30 on 5 May 1990.
- The ecliptic longitude of the Moon at that instant is 178.49°.
- Each sign spans 30°. 178.49° is 5 whole signs (Aries to Leo) plus 28.49°, so the Moon is in the sixth sign, Virgo, at 28°29′.
- 28°29′ is 1°30′ from Libra: outside the 1° cusp band, so no cusp warning is shown.

Method
How this calculator works
Your birth time is converted to UTC using the time zone in force at your birth place on that date, daylight saving included. astronomy-engine then computes the position of the Moon along the ecliptic for that instant, in the tropical zodiac most Western astrologers use. Each sign spans 30°, so that position gives both your sign and the exact degree within it.
Questions
Moon Sign questions
What is my moon sign?
The sign the Moon was passing through when you were born. It moves through all twelve signs in about 27 days, roughly two and a half days in each, so your birth date usually narrows it to one sign and your birth time settles the rest.
Can I find my moon sign without a birth time?
Yes. Tick “I don’t know my birth time”. If the Moon stayed in one sign all day, you get that sign. If it changed sign, which happens on more than 4 in 10 dates, you get both signs and the exact time it moved.
Is this moon sign calculator free?
Yes, with no account and no email. The calculation runs in your browser.
Why does another site give a different moon sign?
Usually the time zone applied to the birth time, or a different zodiac. Vedic sites use the sidereal zodiac, which sits about 24° behind the tropical zodiac used here, so the Moon can land a sign earlier.
How accurate is it?
Positions agree with NASA JPL Horizons to within 12 arcseconds in our tests. The Moon moves about half a degree an hour, so an error in your birth time matters far more than the maths.
