Birth time selection is the process of determining the best time for child birth. It is an astrological technique that helps new parents decide the best time for a child’s birth.

The exact date and year of a person’s birth vary a lot due to various permutations and combinations of planets at specific times. Among them, the transition phase, function of nakshatras and changing ascendant lord are very important determiners.

Birth Time

Birth time selection astrology is an important aspect of astrology that can greatly affect how you live your life. This includes everything from your career to your personal relationships.

The most important thing to know is that your natal chart, or your birth chart, is your entire astrological chart based on the time and place of your birth. It contains every planet and celestial body measured in astrology, each of which has its own symbol, or “glyph,” that reveals its exact position on the planetary wheel.

In a horoscope, each planet occupies one of the 12 zodiac signs. The positions of each of these planets in your natal chart are the keys to understanding your personality, energy, and destiny.

A minor change in your birth time, even to the tune of one second, can alter the positions of these planets in your natal chart, which will affect how your astrology predictions are made.

Luckily, there are many different techniques to verify your birth time and ensure that your natal chart is correct. These methods can range from a simple online rectification application, to a more advanced process that can only be accomplished by an experienced astrologer.

Birth Place

The best way to go about determining the exact time and place of your birth is to look it up in an astrological reference book. There are several available, including a free one from the US Geological Survey. The most accurate and reliable of all is the venerable Astrology Bureau of Canada. This is a comprehensive, fully searchable atlas with more than 250,000 entries, each of which is compiled into a highly usable map that can be printed out as a handy reference.

Using this information, the astrologer in residence can produce the most relevant and up-to-date chart for you to sift through for your own personal horoscope. A complete report is typically delivered in a matter of minutes. The software also spits out a detailed and comprehensive list of your planetary strengths and weaknesses. This is a must have if you’re interested in navigating the maze that is life.

Birth Date

One of the most important factors in determining your destiny is the time you were born. In ancient Indian culture and religion, a baby’s birth was recorded and consulted with a family astrologer to establish a birth chart (horoscope).

However, these days, people often have an induced birth or a Caesarian section, so they can’t be sure of their exact birth time. That’s why it is important to get a long-form birth certificate.

It’s also a good idea to consult with your caregivers or parents and ask them for their time of birth, since they may have a better memory than you. You can also search through old baby books, photo albums, boxes in the attic, scrapbooks and family bibles.

If you can’t find a time from the hospital or a family member, try to narrow down your birth time to a 1-2 hour window. Then, pull up your horoscope on the CHANI app or our online chart tool using the latest possible time and note your rising sign.

Our expert Vedic astrologer will then prepare your child’s birth chart following the ancient Vedic concepts of astrology. Then, he will analyze specific planetary positions and combinations to provide you with an auspicious date and time for your child’s birth.
