A diagram of the relative positions of planets and signs of the zodiac at a specific time (as at one's birth) for use by astrologers in inferring individual character and personality traits and in foretelling events of a person's life.

Using an ephemeris and a table of houses an astrologer calculates relative positions of the sun, the moon, and the planets for specific time and place in order to erect a horoscope. This diagram, called a chart is a stylized map of the heavens. The sun or the earth is placed in the centre (depending on whether the ephemeris was heliocentric or geocentric) with the remaining elements around the outside: the planets, the lunar nodes, the ascendant and midheaven, and the houses. Then the angles between the planets are designated. These angles are the astrological aspects. Different systems of tri-secting arcs produce houses of different size. The calculation of a horoscope is a complex but purely technical skill normally carried out by computer software such as Astrolabe, Kepler, WinStar or ZET. There are websites which offer automated online astrology services too, such as Astro.com.

The chart thus begins with a framework of 12 equal houses. On this is superimposed the signs. In an equal house system the cusp between any two houses will fall at the corresponding point for each of the signs. Thus for a native whose ascendant is at 12? of Leo, the beginning of the second house will be at 12? of Virgo, of the third at 12? Libra, and so on. In other systems of houses which take into consideration the effects of the angle of intersection between the planes of the horizon and the ecliptic, the calculations will not be that simple. For these calculations it is essential to know the latitude of the event. Tables are available for these calculations, and more recently computer programs have been written to do this. Very often these programs allows the user to choose from a variety of house systems. The most commonly used house system is the Placidus system.
