FAQ

What constellation am I?

It depends on what you are asking. For a personality match, take the 10-question quiz at the top of this page. For the constellation you were born under, find your birthday in the table above: that is the constellation the Sun stood in front of on the day you were born.

What is the rarest result in this quiz?

Ophiuchus is the rarest result. It needs a specific set of answers, including the healing superpower and the snake sidekick.

Is my constellation the same as my zodiac sign?

Usually not. Zodiac signs split the year into 12 equal parts that were fixed about 2,000 years ago. Earth's axis has shifted since then, and the real constellations vary in size, so the Sun is now in a different constellation on most birthdays than the sign suggests.

Is Ophiuchus the 13th zodiac sign?

Ophiuchus is the 13th constellation on the Sun's path, but it is not a zodiac sign. Astrology uses 12 signs. The Sun passes through Ophiuchus for about 19 days, from Nov 30 to Dec 18.

Does this quiz use my birthday or zodiac sign?

No. Your result comes only from your answers. Each answer adds points to one or more constellations, and the one with the most points wins. The quiz is for fun, not a psychology test.

How many constellations are there?

There are 88 official constellations, adopted by the International Astronomical Union in 1922.
