Definition: Which sign is the Sun in right now? Or where is the Moon now? What signs are the planets in? Follow the links in the table on the left to find out. An explanation of the start chart symbols can be found here.

Further Information: The planets which are close to us move regularly between the signs of the Zodiac, with, for example, Mars passing through all the thirteen Zodiac Signs about once every two years.

However, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto orbit around the sun at less than a quarter of the speed of Mars and they are more than ten times further away. For these reasons they change Zodiac Sign very slowly.

Uranus, is currently in Aquarius and will pass into Pisces in 2009.

Neptune is currently in Capricornus and will pass into Aquarius in 2011.

Pluto is currently in Serpens Cauda and Ophiuchus and enters Sagittarius in 2007. It enters Capricornus in 2013. See the Planetary Zodiac for why Pluto sometimes isn't to be found against the stars of the standard thirteen Solar Zodiac signs.
