pancocojams: mundane astrological information for certain nations

Edited by Azizi Powell

Latest update- January 11, 2026

This pancocojams post presents some information about mundane astrology and an explanation about the Reliability code" that is used for the information is included in this post.

This post also presents a compilation of astrological information (Western) mundane astrology) about certain nations throughout the world.

Most of the nations in this compilation are featured because they have been in the news lately. Some other nations in this compilation were mentioned in the mundane astrology video that inspired me to research this information*. I added a few other nations because I was curious about their astrological placements.

https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology is the primary source that I used for the data about these featured nations. Other online sites were used when no information about a nation that I wanted to feature was available on that astrotheme site.

The astrotheme sites don't include a drawing of the mundane chart for any of those featured nations.

The link for Canada's mundane chart includes a drawing of that chart. It therefore provides an example of what I mean by a "drawing of a nation's mundane astrological chart". Charts for each of the other nations that are featured in this pancocojams post are probably found online.

This pancocojams post also doesn't include any explanations about the meanings of these astrological planets, signs, or degrees in mundane astrology or in people's natal (birth) charts. That information is found online.

The content of this post is presented for informational purposes.

Thanks to the https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology websites for their information and thanks to all those who are quoted in this post.

* Hat tip to Dan Waites, the host of World Astrology Report, January 7, 2026 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12VLVZKk5tQ "Trump, Venezuela & The 0° Aries Reset".

I happened upon that website on January 9, 2026 for the first time and was inspired to research the topic of the mundane astrological placements for certain countries because of the astrological chart for the founding of the USA and the astrological chart for the founding of Venezuela were presented in that video. I encourage all pancocojams visitors who are interested in astrology to visit that website.

INFORMATION ABOUT TROPICAL ASTROLOGY, SIDEREAL ASTROLOGY, AND VEDIC ASTROLOGY
This post provides some information about the astrological placements that are found in the charts of certain nations according to tropical astrology (i.e. "Western astrology")

As a partial introduction to that compilation, here's some information about sidereal, tropical and vedic astrology:

Source #1 from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidereal_and_tropical_astrology
"In astrology, sidereal and tropical are terms that refer to two different systems of ecliptic coordinates used to divide the ecliptic into twelve "zodiac signs". Each sign is divided into 30 degrees, making a total of 360 degrees.[1] The terms sidereal and tropical may also refer to two different definitions of a year, applied in sidereal solar calendars or tropical solar calendars.

While sidereal systems of astrology calculate twelve zodiac signs based on the observable sky and thus account for the apparent backwards movement of fixed stars of about 1 degree every 72 years from the perspective of the Earth due to the Earth's axial precession, tropical systems consider 0 degrees of Aries as always coinciding with the March equinox (known as the spring equinox in the Northern Hemisphere) and define twelve zodiac signs from this starting point, basing their definitions upon the seasons and not upon the observable sky wherein the March equinox currently falls in Pisces due to the Earth's axial precession.[2][3][4] These differences have caused sidereal and tropical zodiac systems, which were aligned around 2,000 years ago when the March equinox coincided with Aries in the observable sky, to drift apart over the centuries.[5][6][7]"...

Source #2 from AI Overview (results given on January 10, 2026]
"Indian Vedic Astrology: Read Definition, Types & Origin

Vedic astrology (Jyotish) is an ancient Indian system of astrology that uses the sidereal zodiac (based on actual constellation positions) and considers planetary movements to understand karma, dharma (life's purpose), and destiny, offering insights for spiritual growth and life decisions, differing from Western astrology by accounting for Earth's precession, which shifts sign dates. It maps planetary influences in 12 houses, focusing heavily on the Moon sign, and uses complex systems like dashas (planetary periods) for timing events.

Key Concepts & Differences

Sidereal vs. Tropical Zodiac: Vedic astrology uses the Sidereal zodiac, aligned with the stars, while Western astrology uses the Tropical zodiac, based on seasons.

Precession of the Equinoxes: Vedic astrology accounts for the Earth's axial wobble, causing a significant shift (about 24 degrees) in sign positions compared to Western astrology.

Karma & Dharma: A core focus is understanding your karmic journey (past actions) and dharma (soul's purpose) to guide spiritual development and achieve liberation (Moksha).

Houses: Like Western astrology, it uses 12 houses, but with different interpretations for personality, relationships, career, and spiritual path.

Planets & Signs: It features 9 planets (Navagrahas) and 12 zodiac signs (Rashis), with the Moon's sign (Janma Rashi) being central. "...

Ghana
AI Overview

..."Ghana gained independence on March 6, 1957, at midnight, in Accra.

Using these details, an astrology chart calculator will determine the precise positions of the Sun, Moon, and all planets in the zodiac signs and houses, along with the Ascendant (Rising sign).

Key Astrological Placements for Ghana's Natal Chart

Based on the information above (March 6, 1957, midnight, Accra, Ghana):

Sun Sign: The Sun would be in the tropical sign of Pisces (around 14 degrees Pisces). In Western astrology, the Sun represents the core self, purpose, and general character. This suggests a national character that may be idealistic, compassionate, and possibly very connected to its spiritual or emotional identity.”…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghana
….At midnight on 6 March 1957, the Gold Coast, Ashanti, the Northern Territories, and British Togoland were unified as one single independent dominion within the British Commonwealth under the name Ghana. This was done under the Ghana Independence Act 1957. The current flag of Ghana, consisting of the colours red, gold, green, and a black star, dates back to this unification.[45] On 1 July 1960, following the Ghanaian constitutional referendum and Ghanaian presidential election, Nkrumah declared Ghana a republic and assumed the presidency.[12][13][14][37] 6 March is the nation's Independence Day, and 1 July is celebrated as Republic Day.[46][47]”
