Over the past few years I've received three charts, two free ones and a third which was part of a year-long reading (I'm not sure of the term) which I have done annually. And for which I feel that I paid quite a bit.
I've been trying to teach myself with the help of books, so the other night was struggling over a circle with the houses marked in it and trying to put the correct symbols/planet names in each house. I realized that each chart had some of the planets in different houses, and one had planets which the other two didn't have. Of course, when I looked at the geographic location of my birthplace, all three had chosen different parallels. I was amazed, and pretty disgusted, to find the chart I paid for was way, way off, by several hundred miles and between two and three degrees. For instance the city I now live in is on the 45th parallel, which is where the paid-for chart had put my birthplace. My birthplace is in reality about three hundred miles, and about two degrees north of the 45th. Somewhere between the 47th and 48th.
Three questions: 1) How can one protect themselves from such inaccuracies, which of course lead to quite inaccurate readings.
2) Is there somewhere on the internet, like maybe the US Naval Observatory, where one can look it up yourself?
3) Can you then, when you pay for a reading, give them the longitude and lattitude you want them to use.
