When were you born?

Free, with no e-mail address. Birth time and place come next, and both can be skipped.

Tell us when you were born. We turn this sky back to that minute and draw your chart from where the planets really stood.

The Quiet Engine Behind a Calm Face

3 May 1994 at 05:48, York

On 3 May 1994, at 05:48 in the morning in York, the Sun stood three degrees above the horizon: just clear of the skyline, the light not yet decided. Behind it, still below the rising point, sat Mercury, Mars and Lilith. Overhead in the west the Moon was at last quarter, a waning half, standing at a quarter turn from the Sun. A chart taken at that hour catches a sky in the act of opening.

The shape of it is unusually consistent. Almost half the weight is earth and more than two thirds is fixed, which is a constitution that holds position rather than charges at things. Taurus rises at 20°33′, and four bodies sit behind that rising point in the twelfth house, the private sector. So the visible part of you is level and unhurried, and most of the working machinery is set back out of view.

A reading of one chart. Yours.

We go through every planet, the houses and the conversations between them, in plain language. About 3,000 words, as a page to read online and a PDF to keep.

  1. 1The core of you
  2. 2How you think and speak
  3. 3Love and attraction
  4. 4Strength and momentum
  5. 5Growth and good fortune
  6. 6Persistence and craft
  7. 7The twelve areas of life
  8. 8The inner conversation
  9. 9The direction

The pages beside this are from a sample reading, for an invented person. Read the whole sample

How exact is it?

We check our positions against an independent reference ephemeris, on ten charts born between 1933 and 2024. The largest difference for any planet is 17 arc-seconds. For the Ascendant and the house cusps it is 0.2.

How we calculate
1,860″ acrosseach step 17″
The full Moon is about 1,860 arc-seconds wide. Our largest planetary error fits across it 109 times.

Two charts, read together

Add a second person's birth date and we read how your charts meet: where you strengthen each other, and where you rub. There is a love version and a friendship version.

For the other person we ask only a first name and what you know of their birth.

Before you order

What if I don’t know my birth time?

You still get a chart and a reading. We calculate for noon on your birth date and leave out what depends on the hour: the Ascendant, the Midheaven and the houses. The Sun and the planets move slowly enough for their signs to hold through the day. The Moon covers about thirteen degrees a day, so if it changed signs on your birthday, we name both signs instead of guessing.

What do I receive when I order, and when?

A detailed reading written about your chart, in chapters: the core of your nature, the way you think and speak, love and attraction, drive, growth, persistence, the twelve houses, the aspects, and the direction of your path. We send it by e-mail within 24 hours of payment, as a link to a private web reading page and as a PDF; the invoice arrives by e-mail as well. If nothing has come by then, look in your spam folder first.

Can I change my mind and get a refund?

Yes. Until the reading is delivered you may withdraw from the order, and we refund the full amount. Once the reading has arrived at your e-mail address the service has been performed in full, and the right of withdrawal ends; you acknowledge this at checkout. How to withdraw is set out in our withdrawal information.
