You probably already know your sun sign – this would be what you’d look for when reading your daily horoscope, and it reflects the position the sun was in the day you were born. Those are the “main three” aspects of your personality, and all three should be taken into account when you’re reflecting on who you truly are. The first things you want to look for are your Sun, Moon, and Ascendant signs. Now, what the hell does it all mean? I’ll give you the lowdown. There are several sites that will give you your natal chart results – personally, I like Cafe Astrology – they give your results in a language that you don’t need to be an astrology expert to understand.
So, what is a natal chart? Essentially, it’s a map of where the moon and planets were located at the time of your birth. The current phase of the moon and the cycle the moon was in when you were born impacts your mindset and your mood.Do you ever feel as if you aren’t anything like your sign? Maybe you’re a docile Aries or a lighthearted Scorpio – either way, something about you just doesn’t seem to add up to your signs’ classic traits? You see, it’s not just your Sun sign ( more on that in a bit ) that matters in astrology – in order for you to “get” your entire astrological make-up, you need to know your natal chart. Lunar Phases: Every 29.5 days, the moon goes through eight cycles. Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are fire signs and tend to be passionate and expressive Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn are earth signs and known to be more practical Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are air signs and they're super-sociable and intellectually curious and Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are water signs and known as emotional and intuitive. When this happens, astrologers call it a retrograde and they're usually tied to moments where we're forced to reassess our past in order to learn new lessons.Įlements: Each zodiac sign is tied to an element-fire, earth, air, and water. Retrogrades: Planets don't actually reverse their orbits, but sometimes, from our POV here on Earth, it can look like they're slowing down and moving backwards. When another planet, like Mercury, moves through that house, you might notice a shift in your mood. For example, for example, Mars was in Leo when you were born. Transit happen when a planet moves through a house that's ruled by another planet in your birth chart. These north nodes represent the lessons we're meant to learn during our time here on Earth and the south node reveals what we've learned from our past lives. The way that our planets affect our behavior is related to where they're located in our chart and the relationships they form with one other.Įclipses and Transits: Eclipses activate the lunar nodes and show up in our birth chart as north and south nodes. The five major aspects are trine, sextile, conjunction, opposition, and square.
For example, Pallas's placement in your birth chart represents how you approach problem-solving.Īspects: An aspect is the angle planets make with other planets in your chart.
Knowing your asteroid placements can help deepen your understanding of your birth chart. Zodiac Signs: These signs, like Leo or Pisces, and their placements in your chart create a unique profile that help to explain your strengths and weaknesses when it comes to your personality traits.Īsteroids: There are thousands of asteroids in the sky at any given moment, but the major ones that astrologers interpret are Pallas, Juno, Vesta, and Ceres. Each planet represents a different aspect of your personality, for example, Mercury is the planet of communication and where it's located in your birth chart represents how you communicate and express yourselves to others. Planets: All of the planets play a role in your birth chart-there's one located in each zodiac sign and one in each house when you were born.
