So I never really identified with my natal chart and have always suspected my birth time to be wrong. Well with Kannon's ascendant problems thread I started to dig deeper and the story of my birth was very interesting.

So first, my mom had severe endometriosis and had tumors around the womb when she was pregnant with me. She was in labor 18 and a half hours. She just could not dilate enough, so even when I crowned there needed to be an emergency c-section because of that. I wanted to learn how doctors come up with birth times, so I asked my MD PHD boyfriend about it and he told me they determine birth time after the apgar test.

Unluckily for me, my mom told me I almost had to go to the ICU but after the apgar wait of 10 minutes I was better. The apgar score is checking the baby's health at one minute and then at five minutes, then if the score is below 7,the doctor checks again at 10 minutes. So if you know your birth time, it could be up to 10 minutes off!

I of course tested this with transits and the relatability of my new birth time and it was dead on.

Anyone else have any crazy rectifying stories?

I did myself, I figured it out at first by my post. I tested it with transits and general interpretations to confirm it and it was 100 percent accurate.

Changing my birth time back 10 min really doesn't change much for me. Except it makes my NN conj my 6th house cusp instead of being in my 5th

So you're saying you bumped back the time 10 minutes?

Yes, I did. It radically changed my chart

It does effect the degrees of aspects and it effected my stellium from 3rd to 4th and changed my Mars from the 3rd house to the 4th

10 min is actually what my mom said too. She remembered exactly when I was born. She said she looked up to the clock when I came out. Then the nurses took me away to clean up, do measurements, and yada yada yada. The time they wrote on my birth certificate was after all that stuff which is about 10 min after I was actually out of her.

I experimented with the ten minute thing in my chart. It moves my Scorpio Ascendant back into Libra and changes things slightly. Also did various comparisons regarding it, but hell no. I'm definitely not a Libra ascendant. I am a Scorpio Ascendant for sure.

It's good to hear that it worked for you, but it didn't for me.

I want my chart rectified too but someone told me a few years ago that I don't have enough life events yet. And since my chart consists of 2 stelliums, it's harder to pin down the degrees... Since within certain time span, some planet is gonna get hit.

I'm fairly certain my original birth time is off 15-30 min *shrug*

So you count your transits within 3 degrees?

Yeah! It's crazy, I would have never known that. It makes so much sense though

You're probably didn't have an emergency apgar test like me, they waited up till 10 minutes to see if I had to go to the ICU, you were probably fine asap

Yeah I do my transits within 3 degrees. Don't lose hope, play around with your chart, measure it up to the transits and most always go with your intuition. It will help you

That could be true. I didn't ask my Mom what happened when she gave birth to me, so obviously I wouldn't know lol.

Do you have a birth certificate with a time on it? How could it be off by 4 hours? That's wild.

I do yes, I found it pretty crazy too. But major events pointed to a specific ascendant for me. Kannon is very specific and thorough. He said there can be a window of difference of up to 5 hours I think.

That's mental. So what does this mean!? Did the clinicians write the time on the birth certificate grossly incorrect (which is scary), or that the time that we are brought into the world has no relationship with our Ascendant?

Hmmmm. I was also a last minute, emergency C section. Even moving my time up 10 minutes would give me a 0° Libra ASC.

I can relate to many of the descriptors of Libra ASC.. the exception being that I am an introvert, and prefer to be in the company of no more than two other people.

It would also move my Sun from 9H to 8H...

My chart ruler as a Virgo ASC would have been Mercury in the 8th, which I completely relate to.

My chart ruler as a Libra ASC would be Venus in the 7th... which I also very much relate to.

God this is so weird! But as a 28° Virgo ASC I've always wondered if I truly had the correct birth time. They put my mom under during the Caesarian so she wouldn't have been able to glance at the clock herself.

Interesting thread Mergo..

Then an IC at Cap 0°... that makes perfect sense. I've always felt it was weird I had an IC at 28° Sag when my childhood could not be interpreted in any way Sagittarian.

If it feels right it is! Don't worry, I'm an introvert Libra asc too. Most of my planets are below the horizon, along with a lot of other factors that make me an introvert and cancer out the Libra extroversion.

I'm so glad you found my story useful! I would ultimately go with whatever chart feels most correct to you

I would think its the latter. I told Kannon my recorded t.o.b and he said its impossible that Scorpio was rising at that time. So yes, I would think a lot of people's ascendants are incorrect. Leo ascendant fits much better with me and also the descriptions my friends have of me, as well as my look.

Im a very introverted libra AC, even with Venus being 11degrees from AC in 1st. INFJ
