Obtaining a natal chart
From Astrology In Depth
In order to having your natal chart calculated, you must gather the following information:
- Full date of birth
- City of birth
- Time of birth
The time of birth should be as exact as possible. It may be available at the hospital where you were born. Approximate time can be used, but sometimes a few minutes can be enough for a fast-moving point such as the ascendant to change signs, or for a planet to change house. Still, many fundamental aspects retain an influence throughout the day.
