Chart for Japan
The country of Japan has a few different charts that astrologers like to use. One that makes a lot of sense is the chart (and analysis) done by Jamie Partridge: https://astrologyking.com/japanese-horoscope/
He cites a time and date of February 11, 1889, 10:30 am Akasaka Palace, Tokyo, Japan with the time based on an illustration of the event itself at ("Illustration of the Ceremony Promulgating the Constitution,” Artist unknown, 1890).
I was curious about time changes between 1889 and now. There's a good page on Japan's history of time zones here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Standard_Time It looks as though the current time zone of +9 was in use back in 1889 so the time on the clock in the illustration wouldn't need to be adjusted. Below is the chart cast by Jamie Partridge (I checked his longitude and latitude on Google Earth and it is correct (however, in this chart, Solar Fire has adjusted the time):
Here's the chart again with Asteroids, some fixed Stars, aspects and a few other tidbits added. This chart has a Gemini Rising because I didn't let let Solar Fire adjust the time:
This is different than the usual chart cited for Japan. http://www.astrologyweekly.com/countries/japan.php
