The planetary positions are noted for midnight (00:00), Standard GMT (aka UT). S.T. is sidereal time. Additional information is included at the bottom of this page.

Ten year Ephemerides Zodiacal Zephyr are viewable online.

An ephemeris (plural: ephemerides) (from the Greek word ephemeros= daily) is a table providing the positions (given in longitude) of the Sun, the Moon, and the planets in the sky along the zodiacal ecliptic at a given moment in time; the positions are usually given for either noon or midnight depending on the particular ephemeris that is used.

It also provides data on astronomical phenomena of interest to astrologers and astronomers such as solar and lunar eclipses, apparent retrogradation/planetary stations, planetary ingresses, sidereal time, positions for the Mean and True nodes of the moon, the phases of the Moon, and sometimes even the position(s) of Chiron, Lilith, and other obscure celestial bodies; many ephemerides also contain a monthly aspectarian, while others often include the declination of the planets as well.

FAQ: What time zone and time is the ephemeris table cast for?
The ephemerides that I use for this site are 0:00 UT (aka GMT) and the time is midnight.
