dear All,
maybe no one is still reading here, but I try
what I see, indipendently from Zodiac, Astronomy and Astrology, is that crossing some specific date (i.e. from 1500/2/28 to 1500/2/29), the planetarium "jumps" as it were moved across a different period of time (not only a second after the midnight) but I cannot estimate how long.
I found also in other dates this kind of jumps. Does anyone noticed that? Is a known matter? If yes please excuse my ignorance :)
====
The dates are apparently all (?) February 29 in century leap years in the Julian calendar, if the year would be a common year in the Gregorian calendar (1300, 1100, ...), while 1200, 800, ... is ok.
If this makes a difference: Observed in system's Central European Time.
