Egyptian zodiac calculator: your god by date of birth
Find your Egyptian zodiac deity from your birth day and month, in both tables that circulate online, with every date range and where the system comes from.
How the Egyptian zodiac works and where its dates come from
The Egyptian zodiac links each birth date to one of 12 deities. 15 April gives Thoth in the table most common in English, French and German, and Apep in the one used by the Spanish-language press. Both tables are modern: no source from ancient Egypt records them.
Two different tables
The version common in English, French and German spreads 12 gods over scattered periods: the Nile, for instance, covers 1–7 January, 19–28 June, 1–7 September and 18–26 November. The Spanish-language version splits the year into 12 slices from the 16th to the 15th: Bastet from 16 January to 15 February, Osiris from 16 October to 15 November. For 16 May to 15 June most lists give Atum, a few give Thoth.
Example
For a birth on 15 April, the scattered table gives Thoth (1–19 April and 8–17 November). The 16th-to-15th table gives Apep (16 March to 15 April). The tool shows both answers side by side.
What history says
No papyrus or inscription sorts births under 12 gods. The only zodiac known from Egypt, in the temple of Dendera (1st century BC, now in the Louvre), shows the Greco-Babylonian signs. The roles shown describe each god's mythology, not a personality or a forecast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Egyptian zodiac come from ancient Egypt?
No. No Egyptian source sorts births under 12 gods. The only zodiac known from Egypt, the Dendera zodiac (1st century BC), uses the 12 Greco-Babylonian signs.
Why do two websites give me two different gods?
Two tables circulate. The scattered version (EN, FR, DE) gives Thoth for 15 April; the 16th-to-15th version used by the Spanish-language press gives Apep for the same date.
Which Egyptian god rules January?
In the scattered table the Nile covers 1–7 January, Amun-Ra 8–21 January and Mut 22–31 January. In the 16th-to-15th table Anubis runs until 15 January and Bastet starts on the 16th.
Do I need my year of birth?
No. Both tables depend only on the day and month. 29 February falls under Geb in the scattered table and under Serket in the other one.
