Why your Sun sign can differ
Magazine horoscopes use the Western (tropical) zodiac, tied to the seasons. Indian astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, tied to the stars. The two are now about 24° apart, so for most people the Vedic Sun sign is one sign earlier.
In Indian astrology the Moon sign matters more for daily life, so check your Moon sign too.
Which Sun sign is correct?
Both are correct in their own system. Use the Western one for Western horoscopes and the Vedic one for Indian astrology.
Do I need my birth time?
Only if you were born on a day when the Sun changed sign. The calculator tells you when that is the case.
