Sun sign · Sidereal

In sidereal (Vedic / Jyotish) astrology, your Sun (Surya) is the constellation-aligned zodiac sign it occupied at birth — said to describe your core identity, ego, and sense of self. The sidereal zodiac is offset from the tropical one by roughly 24°, so this sign is often the one before your tropical placement.

Astrology has no scientific validity; included as a popular cultural identity. (Vedic / sidereal astrology (Jyotisha))
