“Time Zone Not Sure” field
Sometimes a field labeled “Time Zone Not Sure” will show up. Some time zones in the database are either unknowable or are exempt from certain rules or conditions that are described in this article on historical time zone difficulties. If the software refreshes the same screen after you choose your location and click Submit, you will notice a new field labeled “Time Zone Not Sure” underneath the time field. You might need to change the numerical value in the field in this situation. To see your report if the value is accurate, please click Submit once more.
Birth times that are unknown: Selecting “Time Unknown” instructs the program to omit the Ascendant and house positions from the report because these cannot be accurately estimated without a birth time. The report is generated without the time-sensitive data for the majority of users, therefore nothing additional needs to be done.
Continue reading if you’re curious about the range of signs and degrees that could exist on a given day. The positions of the Sun, Moon, and planets are determined using the time entered in the birth time field. You can enter 12:00 if you want to use the best average for the day. Taking note of the planets’ positions at 00:01 and 23:59 will give you this range if you are curious about the potential range. The Moon can be in either of two signs on many days since it switches signs about every 2-1/2 days. Changes in signs with the Sun and other planets are less probable but are still possible (they may be on a cusp). Once more, you can look at the spectrum of potential locations. You cannot, however, know the specific placements with any degree of precision without knowing your birth time.
How can I discover all of my signs?
Your Sun sign is typically what is meant when someone inquires about your zodiac sign. Also, everyone is aware of their sun sign. Everyone has at least been a little intrigued about what the stars could say about them in the age of the Internet, where it’s simple to look it up. Others may look at their Sun sign and feel it makes absolutely no sense, while some people completely identify with it.
There are several explanations for that, including your Ascendant and Moon sign, which I’ll discuss later. Even if you don’t completely identify with the characteristics of that zodiac sign, from the perspective of the sky, you will see patterns that correlate due to planetary movements at any given time. This is why I always advise people to read for the Sun sign in daily, monthly, and yearly horoscopes.
Your date of birth is used to determine your Sun sign. You may need to consult your own natal chart if you were born on a day when the Sun changed signs because you might actually be in one sign rather than the other. Because you cannot have two Sun signs, cusps do not exist (despite attempts by pop culture publications to do so; stop making these efforts, Karen!).
Which website has the best birth chart information?
In addition to providing birth charts of a professional caliber, Astrodienst is a fantastic online resource for astrologers of all levels. For the fundamental birth chart, search for Chart Drawing/Ascendant. Every time you access the Astrodienst site from a computer at home, your birth information is recorded and readily available. This makes it simple to return when you’re ready to examine other types of charts or contrast your chart with those of other people (known as synastry).
How can I quickly locate my birth chart?
Thanks to the Earth’s daily rotation, the planets and the sky are both constantly in motion. A freeze-frame is provided by your birth chart. It is an image of the sky as it appeared when and when you first entered the earth. For a precise chart reading, you must be aware of the precise time, date, and location of your birth.
For instance, the Moon switches signs every two to three days. Only your birth time would be able to determine what sign the Moon was in when you were born if you were born on a day when it changed signs.
Rising signs change even more quickly. The sign that is currently ascending over the Eastern horizon is known as the rising sign (also known as the ascendant). This is the place in your birth chart where your body, vitality, and sense of self are most closely represented. This sign forms your first House of self and identity because it is so unique to you. The sign after that makes your 3rd House of communication, daily life, siblings and extended family, etc., and the sign after that becomes your 2nd House of possessions, resources, and livelihood. You won’t understand which signs belong to certain residences if you don’t know your rising sign.
Every 1-2 hours, rising signs change, and within a 24-hour period, the complete zodiac rolodex crosses the horizon. The precise degree ascending, or the degree of your ascendant, also advances every few minutes. Your rising sign is significant in astrology for this reason, which is also why the CHANI app places a lot of emphasis on it. It is wholly specific to you.
The other birth chart anchors are comparable in this regard. The precise time, day, and location of your birth determines the points of your MC (which represents your profession and public duties), IC (home, family, and roots), and DC (close relationships).
If you don’t know your birth time, there are other methods to use your chart, but we wanted to provide you some suggestions on how you may look for the most accurate astrological interpretation possible. It is beneficial to know and speak with your parents and caregivers because different hospitals, states, and nations have varied methods for recording births. That’s not an option for many people whose parents were adopted, passed away, or lost contact.
Age also has an impact. Older records may be more difficult to locate, though this isn’t always the case, and/or certain hospitals may have only begun keeping track of birth timings after a certain date.
Leave no stone unturned
Do your research if it needs to be done. Your birth time may have been recorded even if you cannot see it on your birth certificate at home. The short-form birth certificate, which is effectively a signed statement that the long-form certificate exists, is all that many people have. The most important details, such your birthdate, are included, although the time is infrequently mentioned. The documentation kept at the hospital is the long-form birth certificate. More information is frequently included, such as the parents’ names, birth dates, hospitals, and yes, the time of birth.
Call the birth records management division of your local government to obtain the long-form certificate. Depending on where you live, this may be referred to as the vital statistics ministry, department, or office. Depending on where and when you were born, it can be a state-wide, provincial, county, or parish-wide issue.
Ask someone to check the record to make sure the birth time is accurate before ordering the certificate. You won’t be the only one making this request because astrology is currently so well-liked, even considered normal.
You might also try contacting the birthplace hospital. They might be able to inform you who keeps those documents if they don’t.
Finding your long-form birth certificate is usually the wisest course of action, regardless of whether your parents or caretakers believe they know when you were born. Most individuals who were present when you were born were preoccupied with other activities at the time, so it’s more likely than not that their memories are inaccurate. Keep in mind that your rising sign can alter within a few minutes, so if at all feasible, choose an exact time rather than one that is rounded to the nearest hour.
Go digging
Examine ancient baby books, photo albums, attic boxes, scrapbooks, family bibles, etc. There’s a potential that your long-form certificate was misplaced, or that a meticulous parent, grandmother, or caregiver recorded the hour of your birth in their diary.
Ask around
Inquire with your parents, carers, or anybody who may have been there when you were born, such as a relative or close friend. As previously noted, finding a record with your precise birth time is ideal, but if you can zero in on the hour or general time of day, it can help you identify your Moon and limit the possibilities for your rising sign.
Rectify your chart
As a final resort, you can attempt to have an astrologer who specializes in this method correct your chart. Trial and error will always be a part of life. Although chart correction is not an exact science, it does work quite well for some people. While we do not provide recommendations for astrologers that perform this type of work, we do advise asking about in your networks (or even on Twitter?) to see if anyone you know has a relationship with a reputable astrologer.
What is the rise in you?
Your rising or ascendant is the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon when you were born. It offers insight into your abilities, capabilities, and potential coping mechanisms for navigating life. It speaks to the image you present to the worldsome could even call the mask you wear. If you’ve ever thought that people don’t immediately see you as your sun sign, that’s probably because they’re noticing your rising.
Are all the markers on your birth chart present?
You are therefore likely to be aware of your Sun sign, as well as your Moon and Rising signs. However, even without any planets, your birth chart contains every single sign in the zodiac.
Hold on to me: Your birth chart, which includes all 12 zodiac signs, is essentially a picture of the universe at the time of your birth. Your Sun sign is the sign of the zodiac that the Sun was in when you were born. Every other planet, from Mercury to Pluto, shares the same characteristics. To better comprehend the part of your life that a planet governs, consider the sign that each planet is in while interpreting your birth chart. For instance, while having a cautious Scorpio Sun and a free-spirited Sagittarius Mercury sign, you may still have a tendency to speak your mind or even put your foot in your mouth.
Aries
Aries are naturally born leaders. After all, it represents the zodiac’s initial sign. This sign is renowned for being brave, forthright, and competitivesometimes to the point of being unreasonable. Aries is a kind, caring, and trusting sign as well. Aries has a slight temper but doesn’t harbor resentment.
Taurus
Taurus energy is practical yet opulent at the same time. This earth sign is intelligent and practical, but it also enjoys “the finer things in life.” Taurus is not afraid to put in a lot of effort and appreciates security and safety. The Taurus zodiac sign is also incredibly stubborn.
Gemini
Gemini is frequently maligned, yet this is (largely) unjustified. This air sign’s reputation of being “two-faced” is due to its intelligence, sociability, playfulness, and adaptability, but in reality, these people are simply social butterflies who can keep up with the pace of any group they are in. Communication is an important area of Gemini energy.
Cancer
Cancer, the first water sign of the zodiac, is sensitive, sympathetic, and kind. Intuition and emotional intelligence are benefits of this placement. Cancer is a natural homebody and is symbolized by the crab, which carries its dwelling around on its back.
Leo
Leo craves the limelight! This fire sign is gregarious, playful, hospitable, and devoted. A natural leader and defender, this zodiac sign. Leo may have a little ego, but everyone genuinely appreciates this kind of enthusiasm, therefore it’s well-deserved!
Virgo
Virgo energy is orderly, realistic, diligent, and analyticalbut not dull! This earth sign is loyal, honest, committed, supportive, and kind, yet it can be a little reserved. Virgo is a sensuous earth sign that is very “in tune” with their senses.
Libra
Libra, symbolized by the scales, is all about “balancing.” This organization has a strong passion for justice and fairness and is diplomatic, peaceful, and adaptive. Venus is the ruler of Libra, the sign that is all about romance and lovely things.
Scorpio
Scorpio is a powerful sign that represents sex, death, and the occult. This energy is robust, resilient, forceful, and restrained. Scorpio is a water sign that is also perceptive and sensitive. Sometimes, though, those feelings are covered up by a more guarded, threatening faade.
Sagittarius
Since Sagittarius is the sign of exploration and philosophy, planets that are in this sign are guaranteed to have a great time. This energy also has a tendency to be direct, daring, unplanned, and even a little flaky.
Capricorn
The leader of the zodiac, Capricorn is a diligent worker. This sign is renowned for its powerful, diligent, realistic, and ambitious temperament. Status, respect, and safety are important to it. Cap is an earth sign with a “sensual side,” just like sister earth sign Virgo.
Aquarius
Since Aquarius is an air sign instead of a water sign, it is intelligent, lively, and witty. This energy is a little bit eccentric, open-minded, adventurous, and charitable (or a lot eccentric). This symbol is frequently associated with both humanism and science and technology.
Pisces
Pisces, the final sign of the zodiac, has an aging soul. This water sign is renowned for its clairvoyance, feelings, creativity, and lofty outlook on life. Pisces is frequently associated with spirituality and empathy for others.
How do I interpret my birth chart?
You may believe you understand astrology if you regularly read your horoscope, have CoStar and The Pattern downloaded on your phone, or dabble with tarot cards. However, everything begins and ends with your birth chart, according to personal astrologer Hedy (also known as Nymph of Neptune). According to her, interpreting your birth chart can actually shed light on conscious and unconscious areas of your life that you might not be aware of. The goal is to achieve psychological balance and improved life management so that you can manage your proclivities.
Wish to learn more? We looked to Nymph of Neptune for all the explanations for this process’s apparent complexity.
What exactly is a birth chart?
The planets’ positions in the sky at the time and day of your birth are summarized in your birth chart. According to Nymph of Neptune, “It’s a snapshot or map of the position of the planets or the stars at the time you were born.” This clarifies how each planet affects a distinct area of our lives in a unique way.
This basically means that different aspects of our lives are matched to the personality attributes of various zodiac signs in our birth charts. Since Venus, the planet that governs partnerships, is in the sign of Scorpio, for instance, it implies that you exhibit the characteristics of a passionate, intense, loyal, and sexual partner in your relationships.
How do you read your birth chart?
You’ll need to know the day, hour, and location of your birth in order to obtain your birth chart.
You can utilize an online astrology software or apps like The Pattern and CoStar to get the specifics of your birth chart and generate horoscopes using that particular data. However, Nymph of Neptune strongly advises having yours first read by a personal astrologer. The apps don’t provide the complete picture, she claims, and a professional chart reading can reveal all of your behavioral tendencies. “Astrologers have everything put out in front of them; they can observe a person’s tendencies, needs, and behaviors. And I believe that people have problems, particularly in relationships, because they chase after unsuitable partners. However, going to an astrologer can assist someone identify their needs, which might be something they weren’t even aware of or aware of.”
What are the key components of a birth chart?
A birth chart shows where each planet was at the moment of your birth, and each planet dominates a particular area of your life, as stated by Nymph of Neptune. When reading your horoscope, you usually refer to your sun sign because it effectively sums up who you are. Your moon sign, however, is significant since it reflects your emotional state and the type of nurture you experienced as a child. According to Nymph of Neptune, “It relates to your relationship needs and what you need in your adult life.” Your rising sign, which is based on the constellation that was in the sky when you were born, depicts how people initially see you: “basically, what external characteristics you display to the world.”
The other planets also symbolize certain facets of your existence.
Relationships are represented by Venus, communication by Mercury, action and aggression by Mars, expansion by Jupiter, self-control and fear by Saturn, innovation and development by Uranus, subconscious and healing by Neptune, and intensity and strength by Pluto. You may identify your characteristics, propensities, and habits, which will highlight both your strengths and areas that want improvement, by understanding which sign each planet belongs to.
The houses, which stand in for the earth’s rotation around its axis, are another feature of your birth chart. According to Nymph of Neptune, there are twelve houses, and each one represents a particular aspect or topic of life. Depending on the planet and sign that they are in, the houses provide more specific information about each area of your life.
The first house represents your ego and sense of self, the second house represents your possessions, the third house represents your community and communication, the fourth house represents your home and family, the fifth house represents your creativity and romance, the sixth house represents your health and work, the seventh house represents partnerships, the eighth house represents death, sex, and transformation, the ninth house represents travel and philosophy, the 10th house represents your reputation and career, and the 11th house represents your destiny.
Sounds challenging? Consider it like this: The formula in your birth chart, “planet + sign + house,” when added together, enables you to decipher your patterns.
How would your birth chart differ from someone else’s?
pretty a lot. Your chart would seem significantly different from someone born just a few days later because your personal planets, such as the moon, Venus, rising, Mercury, and Mars, can change signs as frequently as once every few hours to once every few days.
Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune are three incredibly slow-moving planets that only change signs every few years or so. These planets so recognize generational transitions and characteristics and will resemble your buddies who are close in age. “People born in the 1990s, for instance, are hypersexualized since Pluto was in Scorpio, the astrological sign that governs sex, at the time. These people are more sexually inclined than past generations as a generation, “says the Neptune Nymph.
What can a birth chart teach you?
Reading your birth chart, according to Nymph of Neptune, can reveal areas of your life that want improvement and help you comprehend why you behave the way you do in all spheres of your life. It reveals all of our behavioural tendencies, both positive and negative, she claims. “It highlights the negative behavioral patterns and aids in amplifying the favorable ones. You can stop them in their tracks once you have a clear grasp of why they occur.”
Take this instance to better understand how that functions in practice: “Anger outbursts are more likely in those with a Mercury or Mars location. But if they realize it and perhaps start engaging in a sport like boxing, it can help them manage their rage in that way “says the Neptune Nymph. Or it might simply increase their awareness of their actions.
Can you read your birth chart multiple times over?
Yes, depending on what’s happening in your life, you might even keep wanting to return to it. According to Nymph of Neptune, “Your birth chart has greater depth each time you look at it.” “I check back after events to see what I missed. We all experience different levels of spiritual development, therefore it gives me a mental boost and clarifies for me what I’ve forgotten. So while we may be very focused on how we handle our emotions and how we express our anger in January, by June we need to be reminded of that.” For instance, let’s imagine your relationship is having problems and your chart indicates that you are not taking care of your own needs. Reading your chart can then serve as a reminder of this tendency and enable genuine improvement.
