Chiron calculator
Your Chiron sign is the sign Chiron stood in when you were born: a tender place that stays with you, and the gift for helping others that grows from it. Enter your birth details to see yours, with every planet beside it.
How your Chiron sign is found
Chiron is a small body circling the Sun between Saturn and Uranus, on a stretched orbit that takes about fifty years. It spends as little as two years in Virgo and Libra and as long as nine in Aries and Pisces, so everyone born within a few years of you shares its sign.
What makes it yours is the house it falls in, the area of life it touches, and that takes your birth time. Your chart gives both.
If you do not know your birth time
You can still find your Chiron sign: it moves so slowly that the date alone places it. The house it falls in needs the time.
What your Chiron means
Chiron is named for the centaur of Greek myth who taught the heroes while carrying a hurt that never mended. In a chart it marks a lifelong sore spot, and the understanding it gives you for anyone with the same one.

Questions
What does my Chiron sign mean?
It names the part of life that stays tender for you, and the gift that grows from it: in Gemini a fear of not being heard, and a talent for finding the words other people lack.
Do I need my birth time to find my Chiron?
Not for the sign: Chiron moves only a few minutes of arc a day. The house it falls in takes your birth time.
Why does everyone my age have the same Chiron?
Chiron stays years in a sign, so a whole school year shares it. What makes it yours is the house it falls in and the planets it touches, which your chart shows.
Is Chiron a planet?
No. It is a small icy body, part asteroid and part comet, first seen in 1977. Astrologers read it beside the planets, never in place of them.
