What's in a Birth Chart?

What most people know as their "zodiac sign" only represents where the Sun was positioned on the day they were born. More integral to who we know ourselves to be is actually the Moon sign, as well as the Rising sign (also called the Ascendant). The position of Mercury, Venus, and Mars define key features of our personality. The Moon's nodes, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and especially Pluto, all work together to indicate our true potentials in this life and where we are most called to evolve. A session with Chart Life covers a lot more than just the Sun sign. For example, if you are a Scorpio who has never fit the pop astrology description of a Scorpio, rest assured there are many more layers to discover through a deep interpretation of your whole birth chart.

It is very difficult to get a good reading without a birth time, but if you can narrow it down to a certain part of day or within an hour, there could be significant insights available in a chart interpretation. Certain relationship dynamics can also be visible and useful without a birth time. If you proceed with a Relationship reading, understand that it will be a partial reading. A birth time rectification can be performed by working backwards from key events and information about your life that you provide. For recommendations on where to have a rectification done, contact us directly at dm@chartlifehk.com.

Yes. At the end of the reading, the astrologer is happy to briefly address an important relationship. Birth details (date and location, at a minimum) must be provided in advance.

Yes. A lack of financial resources does not preclude you from receiving the important messages in your birth chart. Please email dm@chartlifehk.com to discuss.

Consult twice a month via a Chart Life Membership if you wish to know, in advance, when cosmic forces are likely to present as ease or as challenge. This is particularly good for timing actions and intentions to be in better flow with the Universe. Relationships under stress also benefit from bi-monthly sessions. Consult at least twice a year to make sure you are living in alignment with your chart. Make sure you are working to manifest your own greatest potentials and not getting stuck in repetitive, self-limiting patterns. On or close to your birthday, it may be beneficial to cast a Solar Return chart and learn the main energies of the 12 months between birthdays.
