Questions
Why does the house need my birth time?
The houses turn once a day with the Earth: the Ascendant moves about one degree every four minutes. Without the time the house of an event is a guess, so the result shows only the planets it touches.
Is the date the same everywhere?
The event is one moment for the whole Earth. The page gives it in UTC; in your time zone the date can be a day earlier or later.
How is it calculated?
With Swiss Ephemeris: geocentric positions in the tropical zodiac and Placidus houses. It is the same calculation the sky today page, the apps and the public API use.
Is it free?
