Trace your time

Copy the information as you received it. Uncertainty is useful here; there is no need to fill in a time you do not know.

Start with three to five dates that divide life into a clear before and after. Add other well-dated events if useful. A precise ordinary event can help more than a dramatic event without a reliable date.

There are eight patterns with three answer groups each, followed by eight follow-up prompts. Choose one answer in each small group, or use “Tie,” “None,” or “Unclear.” The groups compare different parts of life; your answers do not have to form a consistent type. Add recent and earlier examples when useful. Use Next to leave any response blank; Back and the question list let you revisit answers.

Your answers are research material. A questionnaire alone cannot determine an exact birth minute or establish which mathematical house system is correct. Dated events and candidate charts need to be compared separately.
