T minus two minutes

I just found out that I was born two minutes earlier than I thought, which changed my chart so much more than I would ever have thought. Do you know your exact time of birth? Have you checked what would have been if you were born just minutes sooner or later?

Okay, I need to rant. I got a new birth chart...again! First my parents told me that they had told me that I was born 23:45 my whole life because: who says 23:43? Now, it seems they confused my birth time with my brother's, giving me a completely different birth time. And guess what? I now have not just a different rising(gemini); I also have a different moon(gemini), and the houses are naturally also very much affected. And here I thought my sag venus was responsible for so much more than it actually was. Sorry, sag, for the false accusations.

Tbh, a lot of it actually makes more sense(never understood my cancer bits, for one, and I am indeed more extroverted than my previous chart looked), but aaaaarrrrrgh!

Rant over. *Strategizing the blametrain on my newly found gemini bits*

omg the same thing happened to me! My mom said I was born at 10:50-55am, but through some detective work and self-analysis, I realized it had to be more like 10:47-49am.

My rising is still the same but other houses/placements were affected, which explains much more about my personality. It made me an Aqua + Jupiter dominant, which makes sooooo much sense.

Weird question, I know, but I must ask: do you feel different? I know you're still the same person, but for me, having had a day to ponder it, I am actually relieved. It's like I'm getting it now. Well, not everything(damn you, pisces mars) but I actually feel more in place now.

And also, I know this was the last time I got a different chart, because this time I have the hospital records in my hands. HA! 🙂

I don't have such problems cause nobody can say my birth time.

My AC is chosen by myself. And gets changed to see the effect. I play with Astrology.

But you do know your birth date, right? Just not the birth time? Or?

yes, my birth day is official. no mistake, no modification.

Well, that's a relief! 🙂

You say your AC gets changed - how do you mean? I mean, I understand that you play around with it, but is it like you have one most of the time and then another day another AC fits better, or...how do you do it?

oh yeah, totally!! As I got more and more in-depth with my chart, I understood why I am the way I am.

It really helped me feel not so out of place - I'm Aqua dominant, and I have Aqua moon, and 11th house stellium, and my rising is Gem but of the Aqua decan. So.... basically, I never found it easy to relate to people emotionally (mentally and physically I have no problem connecting to others); knowing my chart explained this aspect of me really helped me understand a lot of the relationships I've had (romantic or otherwise).

Awsome! 🙂 I totally get it. Before, my most dominant sign was cancer, and although I can relate somewhat to cancer...nah...it just never felt right. And the two other signs that were dominant were cap and scorp, which I still identify with a lot(and they are still there, just to a different degree), but those three signs don't seem to me a very outgoing combo, and parts of me are very outgoing(some not, but...) so with a gem moon and rising, everything sort of fell into place.

I don't know my exact birth time, but I sure as heck am no Sag or Aqua rising, that is for sure!

Have you played with different times of birth to see what would describe you the best?

Posted by clooneyyears
i'm scorp asc no doubt. 2 minutes before i'd be a late libra asc.

Hehehe Well, the difference between those two would prolly be pretty easy to see...

Posted by clooneyyears
maybe not. pluto would still be conj asc even if i were a late libra.

Very true. *remembering the days when I thought pluto was conjunct my virgo asc...*

Weird, btw, how at least I don't know where the different energies stem from. I truly thought I could identify with a virgo rising, but that was probably earthy cap sun mixed with mutable gem rising...maybe...? Can you place your individual personal energies to specific signs, planets, aspects and what have you?
