I've been looking for some site that could do this work but I not being lucky finding one...
What I would like to know, and maybe someone with more knowledge and ability for the stars stuff could answer me this:
Was there a moment in time where Ophiuchus was in the sky's azimuth and, at the same time, having the Piscis Austrinus and Aquarius constellation on the Eastern horizon?

Thank you in advance.

Or...Secondary question...If there is a time in the year where were closer to this scenario when would it be? (All this for the Northern hemisphere, south of Portugal)
