Why these dates are not the ones you usually see
Most sites print zodiac seasons as fixed ranges — "March 21 to April 19" — and repeat them every year. They are rounding. A season starts at the exact instant the Sun reaches 0° of the next sign, and that instant drifts by roughly six hours each year until a leap day pulls it back, so the calendar date genuinely moves between years.
It only matters to one group of people, but it matters a lot to them: anyone born within a day of a cusp. If that is you, the time above decides your Sun sign, not the rounded range. Cast your free natal chart to settle it from your own birth moment.

Why do zodiac season dates shift by a day between years?
Because a season begins at the exact instant the Sun reaches 0° of a sign, and that instant drifts by roughly six hours a year against the calendar until a leap day pulls it back. Sites that print fixed dates like "March 21" are rounding; the moment itself moves.
Is this the same as my star sign?
Yes — your Sun sign is whichever season you were born into. If your birthday falls within a day of a cusp, the exact time above decides it, which is why two people born on the same date can have different Sun signs.
How were these dates calculated?
Each date is the Sun's real ingress moment computed from the Swiss Ephemeris, localized to US Eastern Time. Nothing here is copied from another calendar.
