What is an Astrological Chart?
An astrological chart (also called birth or natal chart) is a map of where the moon, sun, and planets were positioned at the moment you were born.
Knowing how to interpret your chart will unveil much about yourself. It will reveal your strengths and weaknesses as well as important possibilities in your life.
How Do I Make an Astrological Chart?
Know All Essential Information About Your Birth
The most important step in creating an astrological chart is knowing the necessary information related to your birth.
Know the exact time of your birth from the hour to the minutes and time of day, whether it is AM or PM. If you cannot get your time of birth, you can still get an impression about your chart and read into your horoscope.
However, without your time of birth, you would not be able to know the definite placement of the astrological points in the 12 Houses. The time of your birth will reveal what your Ascendant is, and that is one of the most vital elements of your chart. Next to learning your time of birth is knowing the place where you were born.
It is recommended you identify your birth city rather than just the state or country. Be as precise in your details as possible to create an accurate birth chart. You better go and find that birth certificate!

How Do I Interpret My Astrological Chart?
The tool here on the website will generate a pie-shaped map. There you will see the details about the planets, aspects, and patterns linked to you. Let us go over their significance one by one.
The Sun, Moon, and Rising
The Sun, Moon, and Rising signs are your big three in astrology as they are the pedestals of your being.
Your Sun Sign
You probably know your Sun sign already, as that one is the most common. It is what we all know as our zodiac sign. The generated birth chart will confirm this for you. Locate that circle symbol with a dot in the middle for your Sun sign.
This sign implies the position of the sun at the time you were born. The Sun is the center of the universe and so it signifies your basic character, individuality, and overall inclinations.
Your Moon Sign
Locate the moon-shaped symbol in the map for your Moon sign. Your Moon sign depicts your deepest emotions and reveals what is underneath your exterior.
It is who you are deep inside and in your private world. Again note that you should know your exact time of birth to get an accurate Moon sign.
Your Ascendant (Rising) Sign
Locate the ASC symbol in your map. That is your Ascendant or Rising sign. The Ascendant is based on the position of the eastern horizon during the time of your birth.
Your Rising sign is how people perceive you during initial meetings and how you express your appearance or personality to them at the time.
The Planets
Your birth chart reveals the exact position of each planet. Read more below to know what each planet represents. I have also given examples of the signs and how they are described in connection with the planets.
Mercury
Mercury symbolizes communication and rationality. Your sign on this planet dictates your way of communicating and how you apply logic in decision-making. Mercury governs the signs Gemini and Virgo.
People with Mercury in Aries are always quick in making decisions, while those with Mercury in Taurus examine things thoroughly.

I love my Asakuki Diffuser, I have this going in my living room or my office with either peppermint or lavender. The diffuser holds more water than other diffusers and lasts longer. It also has a timer so that it doesn’t run dry. The Diffuser adds a nice gentle scent to my home.
I also love having my White Sound Machine and my Asakuki Diffuser running in my living room. Sometimes I will choose the sound of rain or the ocean or even thunder. It depends on my mood.
I’ll fill the diffuser with lavender or peppermint. With the thunder in the background and the smell of peppermint, it’s like being whisked away to a far away place!
I really love the Himalayan salt Lamp and my Crystal Tree of Life. I have them in my office and they create a “zen” feel for me while I’m working.
