I have a question about this and the Astrological implications.

Old Style and New Style dates

For example:

Nikola Tesla was born at midnight on the 28th. of June 1856
by the Old Style.
However under the New Style, his birthdate is listed as midnight on July 10th. 1856.

im from vaguely same area as tesla. even my grandpa had 2 birth dates. could never tell which one is for real and he was born in 1936

the sole difference is 13days between Julian and Gregorian calendar

astro com operates with the one 13 days before the other one so thats the one that should be used for input.

orthodox church still uses the calendar thats 13 days forward. serbs ( aka me ) even have two new years eves cause of it

evander
Thank you!
So...
which birth date should one use at astro.com for Nikola Tesla?

June 28th. 1856 (as listed on his birth certificate/Julian)
or
July 10th. 1856 (going by the new style/Gregorian)
