Astro Data

The data provided below has been discussed in lectures and at chart discussions at the Monday night meetings of the Astrological Lodge of London. Where we have a source this has been noted. Many charts shown at Charts Discussion are noon charts.

Times are shown in 24 hour, time zones are noted where known. Source notes are included where possible.

We have tried to check the data where ever possible. If you discover inaccuracies, please let us know so we may correct the page.

I did find some serious errors in the data we had on our page. Since I took the page down I've been working through the data, double checking it and providing source notes, ratings and reference links. However, this is taking forever so I'm putting the data that I've checked back online and will add a little bit more as I get time to check it.
Claire Chandler

Data sources we use regularly are AstroDataBank, available via the link to Astrology Software Shop, Frank Clifford's excellent British Entertainers and Nick Campion's Book of World Horoscopes for mundane work.

I also include links to two other Lois Rodden works which bring particular sections of her extensive collection together.

As the data discussed at the Lodge increases we need to break down the layout of the page. The most simple division seems to be between personal mundane and charts.

Where there has been a write up concerning this data in the At the Lodge section, a link has been included. There is sometimes more than one link. Some data was noted before we began writing up the Monday evening activities so will therefore have no link. Links to further external sources have been included where useful.

Time: 14.03 Time Zone: LMT Hour Adjustment: 5.50
Location: Hopkinsville, KY, USA Co-ordinates: 36N51 87W29
Rodden Rating: C
Rating Source: Accuracy in question. LMR quotes biographer Doris Agee, "Edgar Cayce on ESP" (p.55) "As in this body, born 3/18/1877, three minutes past three o'clock." Hugh Lynn Casey "Venture Inward," same data, 3:03 PM. Given as CST, equivalent of 3:20 PM LMT. Thomas Sugrue "There is a River" quotes his grandmom (p.59) "I heard the first squall you made at three o'clock exactly." (R.H. Oliver quotes his son for 3:30 PM. Sugrue used 3:20 PM in an article in Astrology Review 3/47. Zip Dobyns quotes 1:30 PM given as family records from a librarian at the Cayce Foundation.) Michael Rideout adds, 7/2001, "Report 4 for Reading 254-2 quotes a letter which Edgar Cayce wrote to Ms. 516. A date of September 16, 1935 is given, but I'm not sure if that was the date of Edgar Cayce's letter, or the date when Report 4 was added to the file: > "...I was born on March 18, 1877, in Hopkinsville, Christian County, Kentucky, at 1:30 o'clock on a Sunday afternoon. However, I have had several astrologers tell me it was impossible for me to have been born at that time, else I would have been a girl. But this is the actual record from my parents, the physician, and the birth certificate record..." Thus, according to Edgar Cayce's own account, his birth certificate listed his time of birth as 1:30 p.m. The kind of time isn't mentioned, but LMT was observed before November 18, 1883. Report 9 for Reading 2441-3 is Edgar's reply to Mrs.2441, which is dated December 31, 1941. In it, he has the following to say: Would be glad for your friend [Raymond McDermott] to give me a horoscope reading. The information, I believe - is Mar. 18th, 1877, 3.20 P.M., Long. 87-30, Lat. 36-45, Hopkinsville, Ky. Would like to see a copy if might, as you can imagine have seen quite a number of these and very few agree one with the other." Michael Rideout, 2/2002, writes, "Cayce's location of birth is usually given as Hopkinsville, Kentucky, but information on the CD-ROM says he was born on a farm near Beverly, Kentucky, about seven miles south of Hopkinsville. I'm therefore using 87W30, 36N45 for the coordinates."

Marcello Borges quotes Evelyne Blau "Krishnamurti, 100 Years" (Stewart, Tabori and Chang, NY) "the assisting midwife called to the waiting husband 'Sirsodayam!' meaning that the head is visible. According to Indian tradition, that is the precise moment of birth, neccessary in order to cast a precise horoscope for the child." (00:30 AM Madras time) This is the same date and time that Alan Leo received from Krishnamurti's father, when he was in India, as given in "Astral Tramp" by Kim Farnell, 1998. (Cathy Hand quotes Helene & Willem Koppejan's book "The Zodiac Image Handbook: The Mutable Signs," On p. 335, they state, regarding (Jeddu) Krishnamurti: "Born 25 May (not 12 May as some Theosophist sources claims) in 1896 at 0.30 hrs. in Madunapalle, Hyderabad, India, 17.16N, 78.28E. Died 17 Feb.1986... Note: Annie Besant and others changed the date to one that was more fortunate. Captain Balfour researched this in his book "Krishnamurti's Youth" and in a personal letter to Willl Koppejan he assured him that Krishnamurti had in his passport 25 May. In his obituaries the wrong date of 12 May was still given....") (Tony Louis writes, 3/10/2001, "The Krishnamurti Foundation of America states the following: "Jiddu Krishnamurti was born on May 12, 1895, in Madanapalle, south India." http://www.kfa.org/history.htm This source give 1895 rather than 1896, but sticks with the May 12 date." On 3/14/2001, Tony continues, "I got the following response from one of the "official" Krishnamurti sites." > Subj: Krishnamurti's birthdate Hello, Krishnamurti was born on May 11, 1895, in accordance with the Hindu astrological calculations that count the day as lasting from 4 am to 4 am. By Western reckoning he was born at 12:30 am on May 12. Sincerely, John Duncan KFA (Unless documentation can be provided otherwise, the existing data for Krishnamurti is acceptable as fully accurate.) (Ken Gilman adds a further confirmation, "A local astrologer Kumara Shrowthulu cast K's horoscope the day following the birth, which is when he made the well-known prediction that the child would be a great teacher but only after contending with mountainous obstacles. A copy of this was later given by Narayaniah, Krishna's father, to S. E. Sutcliffe, and it was published in The Theosophist of April 1932. "The stated time was 00:30 AM LMT on 12 May 1895, at Madanapalle (about 150 miles north of Madras), 13N34, 78E28. "Cyril Fagan used the same data, which he also obtained from The Theosophist article.")

During those days, she took three communion hosts each day, washed down with three cubic centimeters of water. She entered the confinement weighing 110 lbs, and left weighing 100 lbs.

He said "I will tell you as I told Jackie Onassis, all I know is that it was late in the evening, definitely after 10:30 PM."

"Back in 1994 when Bush was elected governor of Texas, I called around and actually found a PR person in the hospital where he was born who was willing to look up his birth time for me, so this is from the hospital records. He's not a junior, he has the same initial but a different middle name than his father."

Rodden Rating: DD
Rating Source: Conflicting/unverified Source notes: Sy Scholfield takes date and place from book by Katherine Frank, "Indira: The Life of Indira Nehru Gandhi" (Boston/NY: Huoghton Mifflin, 2002) p. 343. He takes the time from LeoAstro website which states "Her date of birth is vonfirmedly known as 11.1.1971 14.01 hrs, Dehli." There is no source given. The same website (www.leoastro.com) adds "A feature in Rediff.com has given Priyanka Gandhi date of birth as 12.1.1972 17.05pm New Delhi". Sy Scholfield writes further: Indian astrologer, Sri. Chandra Hari (a.k.a "Jyotisha") states the time came from a printed source, which he does not name (http://www.kerala.com/astrology/HTM/electindia.htm): "Mrs. Priyanka Gandhi. Two data is under print as representing her birth 11 January 1971, 1400 IST ... giving place as Delhi." BUT please note this webpage also gives two different times of birth for Sonia Gandhi (neither are correct) !! This page (http://vivekrk.8k.com/gandhi.html) gives Priyanka's data as "11 January 1971 in Delhi." but with "Sagittarius Sun sign and Taurus Ascendant ". But that should be a Capricorn Sun !!! Guess they are using vedic Astrology ??? Wikepedia online gives : "Priyanka Gandhi (January 11, 1971-) is an Indian politician. She was born in Delhi to Sonia and Rajiv Gandhi. She is the granddaughter of the late Prime Minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi. She has been married to Robert Vadra."

Austria at that time did not have the time of birth on the certificate but Heinz Noesselt, a co-worker at "Zenit," asked at the rectory, as the church did keep a notice of the birth and christening, and published the information in Zenit 11/1933, p. 431.

Rating Source: Originally from an arabic birth certificate which is not authenticated. This chart has been in circulation but the Source is not confirmed. There is good evidence that Hussein's birth data was never recorded and that this is the chart of a friend. It does appear to have symbolic resonance but should be used with extreme caution.

Rating Source: Accuracy in question Source notes: Original entry was for 7:10 AM from Frances McEvoy quoting his mother for "sunrise." In February 2004, Robert Blaschke talked with Karen Thorne, Kerry's sister-in-law by his first marriage, who obtained a time from Kerry of 8:03 AM in 1996. On November 4, 2004, PT talked with Sat Siri Khalsa who says that she attended a political rally in which she was able to slip a note to Elizabeth Edwards asking for the candidates’ birth times. Sat Siri says Elizabeth Edwards smiled, walked over to the candidates and came back with the note on which Mrs. Edwards had written that John Kerry was born between midnight and 1 AM and that John Edwards was born at 7:23 AM. These times are inconsistent with those obtained by other sources. Given the new data, we must downgrade the candidates' Rodden Rating to C, accuracy in question.

Ronald Reagan
Date:
6th February 1911
Time: 4.16 Time Zone: CST Hour Adjustment: +6.00
Location: Tampico, IL, USA Co-ordinates: 41N37 89W47
Rodden Rating: B
Rating Source:Bio/autobiography Source notes: Sy Scholfield quotes a 1999 biography of Ronald Reagan, "Dutch: A Memoir of Ronald Reagan" by Edmund Morris, New York, Random House, which cites Reagan's birth certificate for his birth time of 4:16 AM, p.14 and p.688; copy of the biography in hand. As Morris wrote a semi-fictional biography to which he admits making up footnotes to add veracity to his accounts, historians have severly criticized his ten-year labor. With this information in mind, we may regard the birth data of Reagan with some caution, if not skepticism. (In prior efforts of the community to find this data, the time was rectified to 3:43 AM by Joan Quigley, Nancy Reagan's astrologer, from family information that he was born "early morning." American Astrology March/1976 states that it has a questionairre returned from Reagan giving "early morning." AFA April 1968 quotes "a close friend of the family" for 1:20 AM CST. Doris Chase Doane in Dell Horoscope gave 2:00 AM CST: Doris said that she and Carroll Righter had been using that chart for 40 years. Angel Thompson quotes a letter from his office, May/1980, that "the Governor was born pre-dawn." (Copy in hand) Eve de Alberich called from Houston 4/08/1981 to report that she had talked to Reagan's cousin (his mother's sister's daughter) who has kept family records, and who said that she had no record of Reagan's time of birth but it was early morning. Eve called Doris Chase Doane who told her that 40 years ago Jane Wyman had a chart done for herself and her husband, Ronald. She did not know the time so they used an arbitrary 2:00 AM, which Doane and Righter had been using since. Marion March, 11/1984, had a long discussion with the Reagan archivist who figured the birth was between 4:00 and 7:00 AM from deduction. March speculated 5:04 AM CST. The pre-dawn birth was rectified to 3:46 AM by Betty Marks in AFA 9/1980. Jeff Jawer quoted Ray Merriman, from Katherine de Jersey, reputed to be Nancy's astrologer, that "Reagan's ASC is 28 Scorpio," a time that computes to 1:56 AM, "rectified from 2:00 AM given to Kraum years ago by Reagan." LMR spoke to Katherine de Jersey on 7/07/1988. Katherine said that she had called Nancy's mom many years ago, who gave her Nancy's phone number. She called Nancy, who was cool at first, but then told her that "as closely as they knew, Ronald had been born at 2:00 AM." Van Courtland rectifies to 00:58:29 AM, given in MH Ext 4/1982. Steinbrecher has a note from Vital Statistics Bureau, "The county office won't give out the data without a court order. We do know that Mrs. Reagan had problems in delivery and there was a bad storm the night before." A time of 2:00 PM is also widely used. Joylyn Hill in MH 12/1975 quotes Carroll Righter for 2:00 PM CST. The same data was repeated by Pryor in AFA 10/1971 and Gallo in Celebrity Horoscopes. Mayo in AFA 3/1976 rectified to 1:53 PM CST. Hammitt in MH 7/1980 reported that "Cancer ASC was printed in World Astrology 2/1941, by an excellent astrologer who sometimes does speculative charts. John Bradford says that the time of 2:00 PM came from Adrianne Dunn, but the rumor persisted that Carroll Righter was Reagan's astrologer. Righter never gave out any data for any reason, but LMR reports that a picture of Nancy and Ronald was among the pictures of public figures on his grand piano, and he had a framed invitation to the presidential inaugeration on the wall. Frances McEvoy sends a clipping in 1/1987 that reported,"An 88-year-old man in Boston, MA, claims to remember the day Ronald Reagan was born. He said that at a school assembly one girl was late as someone in her family was having a baby and no one could bring her to school. The baby was born that afternoon and the birth was announced before the assembly was over." Luc Gatto dowses with a picture and gets 2:32 PM.)

Time: 11.30 Time Zone: CST Hour Adjustment: +6.00
Location: Birmingham AL, USA Co-ordinates: 33N32, 86W48
Rodden Rating: B
Rating Source: Bio/autobiography Source notes: Approximate time deduced from a biography by Antonia Felix, "Condi: The Condoleezza Rice Story," Newmarket Press, NY, 2002, p. 36, "Condi was born on a Sunday morning while her father was leading the eleven o'clock service at Westminster…. On November 14, 1954, Angelena (her mother) gave birth to a girl, and she named her Condoleezza." From previous source notes: PT noted that in a lecture given in New York City on October 30, 2003, beginning at 6:45 PM EST, and after 11 minutes of introduction, Rice corrects Judge William Webster who introduced her with a comment that she was one year shy of her 50th birthday. She corrects him by saying that she had "one year, 16 days, and 15 hours" until her 50th birthday--which would make her birthday November 16, 1954 at about 10 AM. But all official sources, including government websites give November 14, 1954 for her birthday. The fact that the speech was given on Eastern Time and she was born in the Central Time zone further complicates an accurate deduction of time of birth.
