September zodiac dates
People born from September 1 to 22 are Virgo (Kanya in Hindi), the fixer who makes everything better. Those born from September 23 to 30 are Libra (Tula), the diplomat who brings balance and beauty. September 22 and September 23 and September 24 are cusp dates: the Sun changes sign on one of these days depending on the year, so check your birth year on the birthday page.
September in Vedic astrology
In the sidereal zodiac used for Kundli, the Sun moves from Leo (Simha) into Virgo (Kanya) around September 17. That day is Kanya Sankranti, also celebrated as Vishwakarma Puja. Your Indian rashi is usually based on the Moon instead of the Sun, so the quickest way to know it is your free Kundli or the Moon sign calculator.
