City of birth

Don’t know the time? You can still explore.

What changes without the time or the city

The date alone is enough. The time makes the Moon and the horizon exact.

Without the time we use midday as a reference: the Moon is approximate, and there is no Ascendant or houses.

With no city chosen, we use your browser timezone (UTC) — where you are today, not necessarily where you were born. Choose the city for the right one.

Without a city there is no horizon, Ascendant or houses.

The houses only exist seen from Earth. Put the centre back to Earth to read them.
