Vincent van Gogh: birth chart

Painter

This region had not yet adopted a standard time zone on this date; the offset used is local mean time (LMT) derived from the birthplace's own longitude.

Timezone records for this place before 1970 are uncertain, so any clock time on this page may be off. The rising sign and the time a body changes sign depend on it.
