In astrology, a horoscope is a chart or diagram representing the positions of the planets and other celestial bodies at the time of an event such as a person's birth. The term horoscope is derived from Greek words meaning, "a look at the hours."

In order to understand and visualize the spherical geometry of how a horoscope is constructed, we need to begin with some basic terms.

The medium coeli, or mid-heaven, is that point on the ecliptic that is furthest above the plane of the horizon; its opposite point is known as the imum coeli. For events occurring where the planes of the eccliptic and the horizon co-incide the limiting position for these points is at 90? from the ascendant.
