The Hora chart is a divisional chart that splits each zodiac sign into two halves of 15 degrees each, primarily used to determine wealth and the influence of the Sun and Moon.
| Zodiac Signs | Aries | Taurus | Gemini | Cancer | Leo | Virgo | Libra | Scorpio | Sagittarius | Capricorn | Aquarius | Pisces |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 15 degrees | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 |
| 15-30 degrees | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 5 |
In this table, '5' represents the Sun (Leo) and '4' represents the Moon (Cancer).
