Fun and Novelty Calculators — Zodiac Sign, Chinese Zodiac, Life Path Number and Love Calculator
These four tools look things up in traditional calendars and play traditional games, and they do it correctly: the right sign for a birthday, the right animal once Lunar New Year is accounted for, the right numerology arithmetic with master numbers kept, and the right playground percentage from two names. None of them predicts, measures or diagnoses anything, and each page says so. They are here because people enjoy them and because the versions elsewhere are often wrong about the details that can be got right.

Zodiac sign
The zodiac sign calculator takes a date of birth and returns the Western sun sign, its date range, element, modality, ruling planet, opposite sign, the month's birthstone and the day of the week of the birth. Birthdays within a day of a sign boundary are flagged as cusp dates, because the Sun crosses each boundary at a different hour each year. The table lists all twelve signs with their groupings.
Chinese zodiac
The Chinese zodiac calculator gives the animal, the heavenly-stem element and polarity, the sixty-year stem-branch name, the fixed element and the traditional allied and opposite animals. It uses the actual Lunar New Year date for every year from 1924 to 2040, so a January or February birthday lands in the year that had really begun rather than the calendar year. The table shows the years either side of the birth year.
Life path number
The life path number calculator reduces the month, day and year of a birth date separately, keeps the master numbers 11, 22 and 33, adds the three parts and reduces again, showing every step. It also gives the birthday number, the root behind any master number, and compares the flat digit-sum method that some sites use so you can see when the two disagree. The table quotes the traditional keywords for each number without endorsing them.
Love calculator
The love calculator plays the LOVES letter-count game and the FLAMES game on two names, exactly as they are done on paper, and shows the working. Both results are decided entirely by the spelling of the names, which is why swapping in a nickname changes them and why the page presents them as a game and nothing more. The table lists what each FLAMES letter stands for, and the explainer covers the regional variations in the rules so you can see which version the calculator follows.
