What is an Astrology Birth Chart (also known as a Natal Chart)

There was a time when I knew nothing about astrology or astrology charts and astrology readings. In the event that you are in the same situation, a chart in Western Astrology will look something like the one shown here. Different astrologers have various preferences about how they like to set up their charts but most of them will have some resemblance to the one here.

 

An Astrological chart is a 2 dimensional drawing of the positions of the planets in our solar system at the moment of your birth.  Everything is shown in the form of a glyph or a symbol and the lines represent the angular relationships between the planets. Some astrologers will add other celestial bodies to the chart as well.

 

Learning to interpret a Birth Chart can be likened to learning a new language: the language of the spheres. At the point when one is interpreting a Birth Chart, this becomes the Chart Reading.

​

An Astrology reading requires the skills of somebody who has studied Astrology. The Astrologer can read the symbolic language contained in the chart and synthesise it so that, hopefully, it will be of use to you.
