Astrological clock JS+CSS

by Genuus P. web developer

Hey, fellow developers! I've been toying with a unique project idea, and I'd love to get your thoughts on it. You see, I'm a web developer, and I've been contemplating the creation of astronomical or astrological clocks using JavaScript and CSS. The idea is to craft a stunning and informative digital clock that showcases the positions of celestial bodies, particularly the planets.

Now, here's where things get interesting. I've recently discovered that there are not one but two major astrology systems: Western and Vedic (Jyotish). And now, I'm at a crossroads, wondering which astrological system to base my project on.

Here's a bit more about my dilemma:

Western Astrology:

Western astrology is the most commonly known system in the Western world.

It uses the tropical zodiac, which is linked to the Earth's seasons and the Sun's position at the vernal equinox.

Each zodiac sign is associated with specific personality traits and attributes, based on the position of the Sun at the time of birth.

Western astrology is often used for personal insights, horoscopes, and compatibility analysis.

Vedic Astrology (Jyotish):

Vedic astrology, or Jyotish, is deeply rooted in Hindu and Vedic traditions.

It uses the sidereal zodiac, which is based on the actual positions of the stars and constellations.

Each planet is associated with specific qualities, and its influence is considered in relation to the position of the moon at birth.

Jyotish is used for a wide range of purposes, including predicting life events, selecting auspicious dates for ceremonies, and spiritual guidance.

Now, the question is: which system should I use for my astrological clock project?

I'd love to hear from developers who have experience in either astrology system or have worked on similar astrological projects. Are there any technical or practical considerations I should be aware of? Do you have a preference for one system over the other, and if so, why?

Ultimately, I want to create a visually stunning and informative astrological clock that's not only accurate but also resonates with users. Your insights and advice can go a long way in helping me make an informed decision.

So, what's your take? Western astrology, Vedic astrology, or perhaps a creative blend of both? Share your thoughts and experiences – I'm all ears!
