Your Western sun sign is the tropical zodiac sign the Sun was in on your birth date. It is the sign most people mean when they ask what is your sign?
Sun sign horoscopes are broad by design. Moon sign, rising sign, and other traditions on this site add different views.
Example: see it on a birth date
The Western sun sign for October 15, 2020 is Libra.
Sun sign is where the Sun sits in the tropical zodiac on the birthday. It is not the Indian Vedic Moon sign.
