Read a date before a location chart
A place name is essential context for a historical record, yet the local horizon changes with the hour. This entry separates the documented date and place from the angular techniques that cannot be responsibly calculated here.
Planetary sign range for the recorded date
The possible signs cover hourly positions across the recorded date and every civil-day UTC offset from +14 to −12. Without a verified birth hour or offset, a body that crosses a sign boundary remains unresolved.
| Body | Possible signs | Reading note |
|---|---|---|
| Sun | Cancer | Same sign in all hourly samples |
| Moon | Scorpio / Sagittarius | Birth hour or offset may change the sign |
| Mercury | Leo | Same sign in all hourly samples |
| Venus | Gemini | Same sign in all hourly samples |
| Mars | Libra | Same sign in all hourly samples |
| Jupiter | Cancer | Same sign in all hourly samples |
| Saturn | Leo | Same sign in all hourly samples |
Geocentric tropical positions. A sign shown twice cannot be narrowed down without a documented birth time and historical UTC offset.
