See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithraism (section "Mithraism and astrology").

About longitude and latitude: my apologies for starting another
off-topic discussion. Rene is right, I should have looked up the
answer in a book instead of asking here. And I second Elmar's advice.
Note that if you don't know why finding longitude would be so much
harder than finding the latitude, you know even less about the topic
than *I* do. 8-)

All the best,
