The Importance of a Birth Time

I've had clients come to me without a birth time. A birth time is crucial for an accurate astrology reading. The reasons for this include, a birth time gives us an ascendant sign because the ascendant happens the moment the baby takes his or her first breath.

A birth time also helps an astrologer come up with the right degrees for the Moon. This is important because astrologers need to know the house placement of the Moon and any aspects the Moon has with other planets. And this brings me to the last point, without a birth time, we don't have an ascendant and without an ascendant, we don't know the correct houses for planet placements.

The best way to get an accurate birth time is to look at the birth certificate. And if the time is not on the birth certificate then contact the hospital or center where you were born. The hospitals keep the times on record. I had to do this for my own birth time. If you were not born in a hospital then see if your mother remembers your birth time. They usually do.

So, remember that an astrologer requires the following to create an accurate Natal Chart.

Birth date, time, and location of your birth (city or town and country).
