Astrological Data for Australia and New Zealand

This freely-available, comprehensive, fully-referenced and reliably-rated databank includes both natal and mundane data and horoscope charts for well-known Aussies and Kiwis. The natal data collection includes Along with data I have collected over many years through research, this collection includes data from various books that have been out-of-print for many years. It seems silly that these data are only available to people by having to travel to libraries and dig them out...

Each set of data includes a horoscope chart generated by the on-line Astrodienst website using Equal Houses. Charts displaying other house systems and asteroids can also be made at this website and make them there.

While New Zealand follows the British standard in allowing the public to purchase the certificate of any registered birth through the Births, Marriages & Deaths dept, Australian state governments exercise some of the tightest controls over access to birth certificates in the English-speaking world. They are mostly closed-shops when it comes to ....with birth certificates only available about 80-100 years after someone is born.

Dates, places and times of birth for Australians and New Zealanders are notoriously unreliable. With this website I hope to clear up some of the misinformation. For example, I've seen various dates for the birth of legendary actor Frank Thring. It wasn't until I checked them against "births" classifieds in Melbourne's Age newspaper that I found a record stating he was born 11 May 1926 in that city. This doesn't help me with a time of birth but I do know from looking at a chart for this date and place that he was born a "double Taurus" (i.e. with both luminaries in the sign of the Bull).

many thanks to all the data collectors. If you have updates, corrections or new data please email them to me, and please be patient. It takes years of continual research to build, maintain and update this website, a volunteer effort on my part.
