The HoroCalc Editorial Team

Editorial · HoroCalc

HoroCalc is run by an in-house editorial team. It publishes practical write-ups about a zodiac sign calculator, produced by the same people who maintain the tool.

Articles here keep to Zodiac Calculators rather than the site in general. The tool it documents finds your Western sun sign from your birth date and your Chinese zodiac animal from your birth year, and the writing follows the same ground: finding a sun sign for a cusp birthday, checking which Chinese animal a January birth year falls under, settling a friendly argument about star signs.

Before anything is published it is reviewed for correctness of method and for tone. Nothing here should read as medical, financial or legal advice; where a subject touches those areas the article limits itself to the calculation.

Errors and corrections go to support@horocalc.com. Once a mistake is confirmed it is corrected at source, on the page.
