Real positions, symbolic meanings
The sky positions are computed with astronomical methods. The meanings attached to them are traditional astrology, which is not a scientific personality assessment and does not reliably predict events. We make no guaranteed predictions.
Tropical, not sidereal
Results use the tropical zodiac, anchored to the March equinox. Sidereal (Vedic) systems currently differ by about 24 degrees, so other tools may show a different sign.
Limits of accuracy
- Approximate times: the Rising sign moves roughly one degree every four minutes; a rounded birth time can change it.
- Unknown times: noon is used, the Moon is marked uncertain and the Rising sign is withheld.
- Cusps: placements near a sign boundary are sensitive to small input errors.
- Polar latitudes: beyond about 66.5 degrees the Ascendant can be undefined, so it is not shown.
- Timezones: historical timezone and daylight saving records may be incomplete for some places and dates.
