Quick answer
Most people mean Sun sign when they ask for your zodiac sign.
Zodiac signs are twelve named sections used in Western astrology. Most beginners first know their Sun sign, but signs can appear throughout a full birth chart.

This tool gives the common Sun sign date range. It is a starting point, not a full birth chart.
Why this question is common
The Sun sign is easy to find.
Signs are the most visible part of astrology: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, and the rest show up in birthdays, memes, magazines, apps, and casual conversations.
People often call this simply "my sign" because it is easy to find from a birthday.
If your birthday is near a changeover
Dates are a beginner guide.
Most beginner lists use common date ranges. If someone is born near the day one sign changes to the next, an exact birth year, time, and place can matter.
How it fits
A full chart can be more specific.
Signs are one layer. A birth chart also includes planets or points, houses, and aspects, so a sign rarely explains the whole chart by itself.
Tradition note
This finder uses Western tropical dates.
In modern Western astrology, elements and modalities are common grouping tools for learning how signs relate to one another.
Other systems can use different zodiac frameworks or calendars. First House does not treat those systems as interchangeable.
