This is why two sites give you two different signs for 18 February. Neither is lying — they are both publishing a fixed range, and a fixed range cannot be right for every year. The 7 switch years since 1930 are the proof.

Moon pulls the sign inward, toward memory and mood, and makes it react before it decides. The last ten degrees carry the sign already turning toward the next one, which is why this third often reads as the most complicated.

The Moon and nakshatra columns change every year because the Moon returns to the same calendar date in a different position — which is why a birth date alone cannot tell you those, and why this table exists.

Every figure here is specific to 18 February: the Moon returns to a given phase on the same calendar date only every 19 years or so, so the counts differ from one date to the next. Mercury’s retrograde periods drift by about 30° of the zodiac each year, which is why the share is near 20% but never identical. How that 20% is computed →

Master numbers are never reduced further, which is exactly why they are scarcer than single digits on any fixed day and month. Why 11, 22 and 33 are treated differently →
Why the answer moves
There is no third sign and no blend — at your moment of birth the Sun was one side of the boundary or the other. For 18 February that came out Aquarius in 96% of years and Pisces in 4%, switching 7 times since 1930. Most recently in 2025, 2026, 2029.
