How to Access Your Astrology Birth Chart

To access your natal astrology chart, you’ll need some basic information about your birth. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to obtain and interpret your natal chart:

Information Needed:

  1. Date of Birth: The exact date you were born.
  2. Time of Birth: The exact time you were born. This can usually be found on your birth certificate. If you don’t know the exact time, a general time (e.g., morning, afternoon, evening) can give a rough chart, but it won’t be as accurate.
  3. Place of Birth: The city or town where you were born.

Steps to Access Your Natal Chart:

  1. Online Chart Generators: Several websites offer free natal chart calculations. Here are some popular ones:
  2. Input Your Information: Go to one of the websites and enter your birth date, time, and place in the required fields.
  3. Generate Your Chart: After entering your details, the website will generate your natal chart. This chart will show the positions of the planets at the time of your birth.

Understanding Your Chart:

  1. Birth Chart Overview: Your birth chart will display the positions of the Sun, Moon, and planets across the 12 astrological houses. Each planet represents different aspects of your personality, and each house represents different areas of your life.
  2. Rising Sign (Ascendant): This is the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the time of your birth. It influences your outward behavior and appearance.
  3. Sun Sign: This represents your core identity and ego. It’s the most commonly known aspect of astrology.
  4. Moon Sign: This represents your emotions and inner self.
  5. Planetary Positions: Each planet in your chart will fall into a specific sign and house, which influences different aspects of your personality and life experiences.
  6. Aspects: These are the angles formed between different planets in your chart. They indicate how the energies of the planets interact with each other.
