In short

What is a natal chart?

A natal chart is the map of the sky at the exact moment of your birth: the 10 planets across the 12 signs and 12 houses, computed from real astronomical ephemerides. Your birth time unlocks the Ascendant and the houses: the complete astrological portrait.

The sky map is the blueprint of your soul. Decipher planetary positions to understand your archetype, your challenges and your hidden gifts.

Anatomy of a Natal Chart

A natal chart is built from three primary layers: the planets (what energies are active), the signs (how those energies express themselves) and the houses (where in your life they unfold).

On top of these layers, the aspects, the geometric angles planets form with each other, describe whether those energies flow harmoniously or generate tension that becomes growth.

Reading a chart is less about prediction than about pattern recognition: it reveals the inner choreography you were born into, so you can dance with it consciously instead of being moved by it.

The full natal chart calculator (date, time and place input → planetary positions, houses and aspects) is currently available in the French interface at /astrology. An English version is on the roadmap.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a natal chart?

A natal chart is a map of the sky at the exact moment and place of your birth. It plots the positions of the Sun, Moon, planets, houses and aspects: together they sketch a portrait of your inner architecture.

What is the difference between sun sign and ascendant?

The sun sign reflects your core identity: the archetype your soul resonates with. The ascendant (or rising sign) is the zodiac sign on the eastern horizon at your birth time; it shapes how you appear to others and engage with the world.

What data is needed to compute a natal chart?

You need your full birth date (day, month, year), your birth time as precisely as possible, and your birth city or coordinates.

What is a planetary transit?

A transit describes the current position of a planet in the sky relative to your natal chart. Astrologers read transits to interpret the cycles and influences active in your life right now.
