How This Tool Works

This converter treats one zodiac sign as one twelfth of a full 360° circle. Since 360° / 12 = 30°, 1 sign equals 30°.

To convert signs to degrees, multiply the sign value by 30. To convert degrees back to signs, divide the degree value by 30.

For example, 10 signs equals 300°, and 300° equals 10 signs.

Why This Matters

Sign-to-degree conversion is useful when astrological, astronomical, or circular-position references use zodiac sign units but a calculation, chart, or drawing needs degrees.

  • Zodiac wheels: Convert sign counts into positions on a 360° circle.
  • Angle comparisons: Translate sign-based spacing into standard degree values.
  • Reverse checks: Convert degree measurements back into sign units for quick interpretation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Do not confuse signs with compass points: This tool uses 12 zodiac sign units, not north, east, or bearing notation.
  • Use 30° per sign: A full circle has 12 signs, so each sign covers exactly 30°.
  • Check the direction: Use Swap Direction when converting degrees back to signs.

Tips for Best Results

Use whole signs for standard zodiac intervals, or decimal signs when you need partial-sign positions.

Good checkpoints are 1 sign = 30°, 6 signs = 180°, and 12 signs = 360°.

International System of Units (SI): plane angle

Plane angle is measured in the radian (rad); 1° = π/180 rad. Conversions between SI and other units use exact, internationally agreed factors maintained by NIST.
