 The doctor told us when she was ready to be born, and I set the time at 11 AM

Not an expert, but I've read many times that the astrological
time of birth is when the infant takes its first breath--so
outside interference shouldn't make any difference.

That's Western astrology--don't know if Jyotish views it
differently.

OK - I can go with that assumption, but the tricky bit comes in, if I decide to 
manipulate the time of birth, changing the ascendant, and all of the ways it 
affects personality. Doesn't seem it would be possible, since my daughter would 
have the same tendencies regardless of when she was surgically removed from the 
womb.

Well, you get into free will vs. determinism, family karma,
and so on here. IOW, if her tendencies were Scorpio to start
with in utero, you'd have manipulated her right into the
appropriate birth time. Presumably your choice of the time
of surgery was all according to the cosmic plan.

It's not just tricky, it's unfathomable. So relax!

Does she not seem to you like a Scorpio ascendant personality?

She is the very essence of a scorpio ascendant...Yeah, not sweating it, but 
seems like medical science allows birth charts to be manipulated.

 Scorpio is good for a Taurus parent.  I've seen many charts of parents 
 and children who have opposition in ascendants.  And then there are the 
 connections almost spooky between relatives.  Every one of my great 
 nieces and nephews connect with my chart as well as between their 
 cousins.  And I'm talking small 1 or 2 degree orb aspects and conjunctions.
 
 Basically the nay-sayers don't like the idea of predetermination and 
 they are probably per-determined to think that way.  In fact for 
 personal psychology I recommend believing in free will though it may not 
 exist at all.
 
 How this all works is probably beyond the scope of our current science.

What that means is, you can question the experts' idea, if you think it is 
wrong, and find a better explanation, if you can prove it. This passage does 
not mean unthinking acceptance of what experts say is true, if that was the 
intent of your posting this.

'The only way to have real success in science, the field I'm familiar with, is 
to describe the evidence very carefully without regard to the way you feel it 
should be. If you have a theory, you must try to explain what's good and what's 
bad about it equally. In science, you learn a kind of standard integrity and 
honesty.'

'The exception tests the rule. Or, put another way, The exception proves 
that the rule is wrong. That is the principle of science. If there is an 
exception to any rule, and if it can be proved by observation, that rule is 
wrong.'

Dr.D,

Some families in India consult a jyotishi to determine when is the best time 
for birth to give the child a favorable birth time.  When the birth time is 
determined, then the mothers undergo the C-section operation.  According to 
jyotish principles, the birth time occurs when the baby takes the first breath 
outside of the mother's womb.

Personally, I was consulted to determine the birth time delivery for a baby.  I 
used a technique called nimittas, which refers to good omens.  When I was 
pondering this question, I witnessed a baptism in church of a child who was 
christened, Adam. 

So, I chose this name as the basis of determining my client's child.  The 
syllable A refers to the 4th quarter of the nakshatra of Krittika.  So, it 
was only a matter of determining the date and time when the Moon will transit 
this sector.  The client agreed and the baby was delivered by C-section.  He 
chose to call his male child, Aditi, meaning the Sun in Hindu mythology.

Thank you for your story - I hope Aditi wasn't inadvertently paired with an 
awkward last name like, Finklestein, or Gomez. Might have made it harder in 
school. :-)

Astrology is fun from a broad brush perspective, like I am a Gemini, and duh, I 
love to communicate! But when it gets into prediction, or even assessment of 
specific traits, I have not yet seen anything specific enough about myself, or 
others, to impress me.
