Here is a more pythonic version:

# Dictionary mapping month number to a function that takes a
# day and returns the sign. Use like this: SIGNS[month](day)
SIGNS = {
  1: lambda d: d >= 20 and 'aquarius' or 'capricorn',
  2: lambda d: d >= 18 and 'pisces' or 'aquarius',
  3: lambda d: d >= 20 and 'aries' or 'pisces',
  4: lambda d: d >= 20 and 'taurus' or 'aries',
  5: lambda d: d >= 21 and 'gemini' or 'taurus',
  6: lambda d: d >= 21 and 'cancer' or 'gemini',
  7: lambda d: d >= 22 and 'leo' or 'cancer',
  8: lambda d: d >= 23 and 'virgo' or 'leo',
  9: lambda d: d >= 23 and 'libra' or 'virgo',
  10: lambda d: d >= 23 and 'scorpio' or 'libra',
  11: lambda d: d >= 22 and 'sagittarius' or 'scorpio',
  12: lambda d: d >= 22 and 'capricorn' or 'sagittarius',
}

@register.filter
def astrological_sign(bday):
  return SIGNS[bday.month](bday.day)
