Information on the Personal Daily Horoscope

In the personal daily horoscope, a selected transit to your birth chart describes your mood or situation on that day. Transits which are particularly important are marked by *, **, or *** next to the heading. The text used for the transits are taken mainly from Robert Hand's 'Planets in Transit'. (What are transits?)

Subscription of the Extended Daily Horoscope

The Daily Horoscope for today, yesterday and tomorrow is free for everyone to use. Additional interesting information is accessible for subscribers only, e.g. the extended day choice, free transit selection, the love horoscope and planetary hours. For the duration of the subscription the website will be automatically free of 3rd party advertisements. Here you can find more information on the subscription.

Until further notice, the extended transit selection is free for all on Thursdays.

Why is the extended transit navigation in the daily horoscope free for Thursdays?

We would like to give all non-subscribers an opportunity to see what the Extended Daily Horoscope has to offer. Therefore, the navigation features for "Other transits occurring today" and "Important long-term influences" will be free for everyone on each Thursday until further notice.

By Thursday we mean, that the horoscope is for that day, i.e. it will be the 'tomorrow' horoscope on your Wednesday visit, or the 'yesterday' horoscope on Fridays. The local timezone of your reference place counts.

Strong personality

Valid during several weeks: At this time of year, you will become more concerned with personal matters and less with the world at large. You can project yourself with more forcefulness than usual. It is an excellent time for making an impression on others, but you must be careful because you will not be especially sensitive to their needs. For this reason, you may find it difficult to work with others during this transit. If your efforts to work on projects with others don't seem to get anywhere now, perhaps you should defer them until later. First you should take care of the proper business of this transit, which is to experience yourself in a subjective frame of reference. You have a great need to express yourself now, and it is a valid need. No purpose will be served by denying all your own needs in favor of a misguided concept of duty.

Planetary Hours and Planetary Days

According to ancient lore, each day and each hour of a day is attributed to a particular planet. The purpose of this attribution is to find the right moment for a particular activity. For example, according to this lore, the right moment for love matters would be the hour ruled by Venus on a Venus day.

Planetary hours are calculated as follows: We calculate the length of time between sunrise and sunset and divide it into 12 equal sections. In the same manner, we divide the length of time between sunset and the following sunrise into 12 equal sections. The resulting 24 sections are called 'planetary hours'. Naturally, they are not ordinary 60-minute hours but can be longer or shorter. The 24 planetary hours make up a planetary day. Consequently, a planetary day lasts from sunrise on one day to sunrise on the next day.

The 24 planetary hours are attributed to the seven classical planets in astrology in the following order:

Saturn - Jupiter - Mars - Sun - Venus - Mercury - Moon - then from starting again with Saturn - Jupiter - etc.

Clock times are given in the timezone which is valid in Barcelona, Spain. Timezone offset at noon today: 2h east, i.e. noon is 2h earlier than in Universal Time (UT).  
Time Zone and Reference Place

Are you in a different time zone to the one you were born in? If so, you might want to enter your present location as a place of reference, so that the date and the exact time correspond with wherever you are. To do this, click on 'Change Reference Place' at the bottom of the Daily Horoscope. This is NOT very important, please read on!

Minimal importance of reference place

Transits depend only on where you are born (because this influences your Ascendant and houses). They do NOT depend on where you live. The place where you live has no importance whatsoever for any horoscope reading on this website.

The only exception is of minimal impact. The time when a transit occurs is fixed in Universal Time (aka Greenwich Time). It is the time when a moving planet crosses a particular degree of the zodiac, where your birth planet (or house cusps) is considered to have left a mark. This time is the same, from wherever on the earth you may be watching! Only the local clock time for this moment however will be different, depending on the time zone, in which you live. The 'reference place' at the bottom of the daily horoscope page is used to determine, in which time zone these transit times should be printed. If you know about time zones, you can however do the conversion from one to the other just as well in your head, as you often do when you watch a nation-wide or world-wide TV network.


The beginning and the end of each day refer to the local timezone at this location.

The house system "Regiomontanus" is stored in your saved settings from Extended Chart Selection. In the Personal Daily Horoscope this system is used for transits of planets through houses.
