A horoscope is prepared based on the view of the sky from the place of birth of the child at the time of his birth. But the sky looks different from different places around the world. A horoscope based on a book showing planetary positions (known as "Panchang" in India) in one part of the world will not be correct for preparing horoscope for a person born in another part of the world. While the differences in longitudes are supposedly taken into account by adjusting the time of birth taking into account the time difference between the two places (the place to which the Panchang belongs and thje place of birth of the person for whom a horoscope is to be prepared), there seems no way of taking into account the difference in the latitudes of these two places. So, do horoscope makers take into account differences in latitudes or don;'t they. And, if they do, how is it doen?

Hi! I'm here to help you once and for ALL, answer that question you have. Go to one or all of the websites below and chart in your info. They're all free charts. When you enter the data, you'll see that it depends upon the year you were born....that's it! Nothing to it. Each year, the cusp day changes. Glad I could solve that for you. Good luck! Remember though, you'll still have some tendencies of the other sign, simply because you might have Mercury and/or Venus or other planets in that sign.

Hmmm I'm not sure but since astrology doesn't bother to correct itself for the fact that the constellations have drifted one full sign over the lat 2000 years....\n\nMy fortune cookie seems to back me up on this.

According to Western Astrology you would be a virgo. I don't know much about Hindu panchanga so I don't have much to tell you about that. \n\nI also cannot tell you which to pick, or believe in. Maybe pick up a book on the basics of panchanga and read up on your sign as well as a book on western astrology. Which I'm sure you'll find both have similar characteristics to eachother. You decide which best describes you.\n\nThe Sun the core of the individual; the overriding nature and will. The moon is your emotional life and it's influence is more subtle because it relates to personality below the surface.\n\nAccording to your birthdate, your sun sign is Virgo and your Moon sign is Leo. Here's a brief description of what this means.\n\nThe combination of your Sun and Moon signs produces a very earnest, if contradictory personality. The pairing blends the intelligence, analytical insight and discrimination of Virgo, with the vitality, confidence and authoritativeness of Leo. There is much internal indecision in your nature, but the Virgo personality is sure to rule. You do what you should, instead of what you would. You are naturally conscientious, revealing great working capacity or devotion to duty. You have a very confident and positive personality, often proving assertive, sometimes aggressive. Your assertive impulses may cause you to spend some time worrying when you later take the time to reflect and analyze what you have said or done. You feel better when you can hold back until you have that inner confidence that the direction you're headed is correct. You're a person of very high character and strong principles. You rely on individual worth and expect others to recognize your sincerity, and they usually do. You have a practical individuality and a discriminating nature. Your strengths of character and high principles should help you attain your potentials in life.

If you can see the moon from both points at the same time then the phase of the moon will be the same.\n\nIf however the moon is visible in Britain, but still below the horizon in Australia, then the phase will have very slightly changed by the time the moon rises in Australia.

Right ascension and declination are just like longitude and latitude, but in the sky instead of on Earth. The stars are fixed on this grid, so if you know the right ascension of any star then you can measure from that star to any other point. If you want to know the right ascension of the meridian at your location, or the hour angle of the vernal equinox, which is 0hr, you need to know the local sidereal time. The US Naval observatory has an online calculator. Of course local sidereal time is changing continuously as the Earth rotates, so at the moment you determine the local sidereal time you need to start a clock and later add whatever that clock says to the value you originally got to have the current local sidereal time. Also, the clock should really be a sidereal clock and not a solar clock, because a solar day is 24 hours but a sidereal day is only 23h 56m 4s, although a regular solar clock is probably good enough for a few hours. The difference is due to the Earth's orbit. Earth rotates once in 23h 56m 4s but in that time it has moved around the Sun enough so that it needs to rotate another 3m 56s to bring the Sun back to the same altitude in the sky. Another way to look at it is that the sun moved 3m 56s in right ascension during the day.

Latitude doesn't affect time at all. For Longitude, since 360 degrees encompasses the entire earth's surface, and since the earth rotates once in 24 hours, the time between two points one degree apart in longitude is 24/360 or 4/60 or 1/15 of an hour, which is 4 minutes. (you can break this down as far as you want, using smaller and smaller longitudinal differences). As an offshoot of this, there are 15 degrees in an arc of the earth representing  one time zone. By the way, there is no "local time" at either the North or South Pole, but that's a story for another time.

Several planets have been having generator problems and their positions have been hard to locate and/or predict. That has devistated the generaly exact science of astrology and esp Horoscopes. The Horoscopologysts have had to make a tough decision between issuing non-accurate or even vague horoscops, or wait untill they can once again issue accurate, detailed information. The honest horoscopeologists  have decided to wait.\n\nWe'd (The Planitary engineers) like to ask your patience through this rough time and assure you that we will get the plantes moving in a predictable manner in the very near future, and you will soon be reciving your trusted guidence on time every time. \n\nThank you for your understanding.\n\n-HtJ

If someone did guess correctly, that's all it would be  -  just a guess.  Astrologers/psychics  get forecasts right sometimes simply because they can't guess wrongly all the time!

Technically, this is correct. \n\nHowever, we can gain confidence in future predictions based on past success. For example, if the sun rises in the east for 100,000,000 consecutive days, and nothing that would prevent this from occuring on the 100,000,001th day, we can be very confident that the sun will in fact rise in the east, not the west, on the 100,000,001th day. \n\nSure, we might be wrong, but, by repeated trials, observations, and attempts at falsification, we can decrease the probability of that being the case to such a small probability that witholding provisional acceptance would be perverse. That, in a nutshell, is science.

you also need your latitude.  \n\nThink about it, if you were at one of the poles, sun-rise and sunset would be drastically different.\n\nYes, There is a formula.\n\nHere's the answer in positional astronomy...

Because of a branch of Astrology called Progressions. It is based on the 'a day for a year' principle.\n\nThe day after the day you were born represents your 1st year of life. The second day represents your 2nd year of life, and so on.\n\nThe positions of the planets on each of those days tell us about the type of year you will have at that point in your life. E.g. if you wanted to know about your 36th year of life, i.e. when you are 36 years old, you count 36 days down the calendar from your day of birth.\n\nThen you look at all the planets' positions and the houses they're moving through, as well as the aspects they make to your natal planets and to the cusps of your natal houses. From there, you get an interpretation for your 36th year of life.\n\nIt is the birth time that determines the Ascendant and all the other houses or areas of life. When we know where each house begins and which planet rules it, only then can we look for the ruling planet of a particular house to see its conditions, whether malefic or benefic, for a certain year, and make the predictions accordingly.\n\nIf we don't know the houses in a chart, then we can't make any predictions, because the planets only tell us the style or type of a thing, but does not tell us what the thing is, i.e. the areas of life, or houses.\n\nE.g. the sign on the cusp of your 7th house tells what type of spouse you will have, and its ruler tells what kind of marriage you will have. But if there are no houses, (due to missing time of birth), then we can't really tell anything about this area of life. Simply assuming that the Sun sign is the Ascendant and the opposite sign is the 7th house is NOT Astrology.\n\nThe Moon moves the fastest - between 11 degrees to 15 degrees in a day, and correspondingly, in a year in Progressions. So the Moon is used as a timer, in addition to the meaning for the house it rules. It progresses roughly 1 degree per month, and events can be narrowed down to the month they are likely to happen in.\n\nThe beauty of this Progression system with its timings is that, if you don't know your birth time, you can actually work it out quite accurately by working backwards with just the timetable of events in your life. This is called Rectification.\n.

to find out what's on the opposite side of the globe, take the latitude and longitude of where you start, and apply the following transformation:\n\nlatitude:  change north to south, south to north\nlongitude:  add or subtract 180 degrees\n\nrotterdam is at 51 degrees 55' N latitude and 4 degrees 29' E longitude.  so, directly across the globe is the point at 51 deg 55' S, 175 deg 31' W longitude, which according to google maps, is about 350 miles southeast of the southern tip of new zealand.

It's all to do with the angle of the earth.  It doesn't sit in an upright position, rather it reclines at and angle of 23 degrees.  It also rotates around the sun once a year which means that at times parts of the earth are pointing towards the sun and other parts are pointing away.\n\nThe further north or south you go the more pronounced the difference in daylight hours is.  For example, if you venture into the Arctic Circle (within 23 degrees of the pole) you can have 24 hour daylight during the summer months and 24 hours darkness during the winter months.\n\nBecause India is closer to the equator the difference in sunrise and sunset times is less variable than it is in Australia or the UK.  In the UK for example at this time of year it's daylight up until about 10PM but during the winter months it's dark by 4PM.

This would depend on weather you are at true north or magnetic north as the two differ a lot. If it was tru north pole (where santa lives) then all directions are south but if it is magnetic north then this will change relative to where you are standing at different times of the day and different times of the year.

People turn to horoscopes in an attempt to explain the personality and tendencies or possible outcomes...\n\nMost of the terminology is folded into Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicators...\n\nMyers-Briggs is often confused with astrology because it so closely describes personality...\n\nMyers-Briggs is actually the collaboration btw a student of Jung's and her daughter and son-in-law\n\nA horoscope is a start if it puts you on a journey to discover your personality\n\nWhile the sun and moon exert a lot of influence on our planet everything from Circadian rhythms and gravity to tides and menstrual rhythms, the other planets are not large enough or close enough to make much of an impact\n\nA nicely-plotted horoscope is a thing of beauty...I don't know that it has much value except as the artist can draw out a person's personality and which has less to do with a star-chart and more to do with being perceptive\n\nNothing in your question, at face value, will help you

Actually, the time difference between yourself and your companion 'sunrise-watcher' varies depending on latitude. Up by the Arctic circle, you could be seeing the sun set only a few hundred miles from someone watching it rise. Go to time.gov, they show a graphic representation of the earth showing the terminator between day and night. You'll see what I mean.
