Korean Zodiac (Ddi) Calculator

The animal year a birthday belongs to, counted from Seollal.

This page gives the animal and nothing else. For lunar and solar dates, and the full cycle: Lunar ↔ Solar Converter

Dates from 1899 to 2049.

This year and next

Dates only — no fortunes, no compatibility readings.

The date is not sent anywhere.

How to use

  1. Enter the date of birth, solar calendar — the date on the ID card.
  2. The animal comes back with the Seollal the year turned on.
  3. The years underneath are the ones that share the animal, twelve apart.

Examples

Born on 20 January 1990

Seollal 1990 fell on 27 January, so this birthday is still a Snake, not a Horse.

Born on 27 January 1990

The same week, the other side of the line: this one is a Horse.

This year and next

2026 is a Horse year from 17 February; 2027 is a Goat year from 7 February.

FAQ

Why is my January birthday a different sign?

The sign changes at Seollal, not January 1, so earlier birthdays take the previous year's animal.

What about the Ipchun (Feb 4) rule?

Some fortune traditions use Ipchun; this tool uses Seollal, the everyday convention.

Does it tell fortunes?

No. It only calculates the animal sign from the date.
