Sorry mate, I haven't cast a chart for over 25 years,
I'd be willing to have a look at the chart if the aspects* are provided ( I use the placidean system).
One simple thing I CAN tell you is where the sun MUST be on your chart (I need only your time of birth)--if it's not,the bloke has miscast your chart.The technical stuff does kinda reflect where things were at the time of your birth. EG the say the sun was in the constellation of Libra. Astrology uses real astronomical ephemerides.
*aspects are the angles between a whole bunch of stuff,beginning with the planets.Some represent "life conditions" others "events". Manually casting a chart is tedious but not difficult. A lot of astrologers today use a computer programme, some of which are very precise. Interpretation can be tricky as some things will contradict. Imo a competent programmer could design a programme which would calculate and interpret a chart in seconds better than most astrologers,many of whom also use "intuition" to get a"feel for a chart". My guess is such things are already available.
PS I'm willing to be the recent downgrading of Pluto has changed exactly nothing for astrologers.
PPS:I just checked a bit torrent site,there was a whole page astrology programmes.
