How common is this birthday
March 20 among the 366 days
March 20 averages 11,330 births a day in the US — the 183rd least common of the 366 dates, 0.2% below the average day. The deep dips are holidays.
Which sign, by birth year
- Pisces at midday UTC
- Aries at midday UTC
- Sign changed during the day (UTC)
- 2026
Pisces at midday UTC in 80 years and Aries in 20: 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988 … 2025, 2028, 2029. In 65 of the years — dotted — the Sun entered Aries during March 20 itself, so a birth that day can be either sign depending on the hour.
- Pisces
- Aries
- 2026
The bar is the whole of March 20 in UTC; where its color changes, the Sun crossed into Aries, so a birth after that minute is Aries. The time on the right is that minute.
- 21 of these 21 years had the change inside March 20 itself, so the hour of birth decides — from as early as 1:22 AM UTC in 2032 to as late as 10:45 PM in 2015.
- Two sites can give two different signs for March 20 because both print a fixed range, and no fixed range is right in every year — the noon sign here flipped 27 times between 1930 and 2029.

March 20 closes Pisces in 2026, inside the Mars decan — the Sun moves on to Aries at 2:46 PM UTC on March 20.
Mars pushes the sign toward friction and initiative — the part of it that acts before it checks. The last ten degrees of Pisces already turn toward Aries, 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.

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 March 20 that came out Pisces in 80% of years and Aries in 20%. The noon sign switched 27 times between 1930 and 2029; the last three switches fall in 2024, 2026 and 2028.
