Different Times

As per Definition of Astrology, Mean Solar Time equals your clock time. GMT is the Greenwich Mean Time.

GMT is observed as the Standard Time through out United Kingdom. Sidereal Time is Different.

It is used by astronomers and astrologers. You may think it is star time. But it is not exactly that.

Sidereal Time

What is Sidereal Time? It is time measured with respect to the stars. One sidereal day is 23 hours 56 min, 4.091 seconds.

In astrology, your birth time has to be changed to Sidereal Time to get the location of the 12 cusps from the standard Raphael's Table of Houses.

Sidereal Day

Sidereal Day is the time interval between two appearances of the first point of Aries overhead in the skies.

Or it is the time taken for for a point in the sky to make two crossings over the same meridian in the same place.

As per definition of astronomy, one Sidereal Day is the time taken by the Earth to make exactly one revolution.

This revolution is calculated with reference to the first point of zodiac in Astrology Sign Aries 0, or with reference to any particular star in the sky.

Standard Time

Each country chooses a Geographic Meridian and for that meridian their clocks are adjusted so as to keep uniform time through out that country. UK has done it with respect to Greenwich and it is Greenwich Mean Time.
