Natal Chart Guide
Understanding Your Natal Wheel
Your natal wheel is a snapshot of exactly where every planet sat in the sky the moment you were born. The outer ring is the zodiac; the numbers are the 12 houses, or areas of life; each symbol marks a planet's placement; and the faint lines crossing the middle are aspects — how those placements talk to each other. Nothing on it is a verdict. Think of it as a set of tendencies you get to work with, not instructions you have to follow.
Curious why placements like these can feel so specifically accurate? Read the honest psychology behind it.

The Planets
Each planet governs a different part of you — where it lands in your chart shapes how that part shows up.
Sun
IdentitySun governs your core sense of self — the part of you that stays recognizably "you" no matter what role you're playing.
Moon
EmotionMoon governs your emotional instincts — what makes you feel safe, and how you process feeling before you've thought it through.
Houses, signs & elements, and aspects go deeper than most people want on a first visit — they're all still here whenever you are.
