This movement is divided in turn into&nbsp;12 sectors bearing a constellation&#8221;s name, from Aries to Pisces. For an astrogram to be charted, the exact position of the Sun, Moon and other planets at the birth time is required, as well as the geographical birthplace. This is described in degrees and minutes to position their place on the zodiac circle. The resulting natal chart&nbsp;allows one to describe the effect that the planets&#8221; specific&nbsp;complex and subtle influences will have on the personal characteristics of an individual.
