✦ The Chart
What is a natal chart?
The Sun travels the same circle through the sky every year. That circle
is your chart wheel.
The planets ride the same circle, and your chart is a freeze-frame of
where each one was sitting at the minute you were born, from the spot on
the ground where you were born.
✦ Birth Data
Why do you need my exact birth time and place?
Your chart is unique to you, like your fingerprint. If you give me your
sister’s fingerprint, it shows her identity, not yours.
Your exact birth time and place hold the information that is unique to you.
Without an accurate birth time and place, I’m not reading your
chart — I’m telling you someone else’s story.
✦ The Signs
Why doesn’t my sign match the constellation I’ve read about?
The signs aren’t constellations. They’re seasons.
Aries doesn’t mean a patch of stars — it means the moment
spring begins.
The constellation names were borrowed a couple of thousand years ago,
back when the two lined up, and the names stuck. The measurement never
changed.
✦ Prediction
Do you predict the future?
No. I can tell you that you might have a hard time on a
certain day, but that’s about it.
Here is how I see it. You’re given a blueprint — insert your
own higher power here, or don’t — and you’re also given
free will. The chart is a set of symbols showing likely possibilities in
this lifetime, across a spectrum from shadow to light.
With your free will, you choose which direction you go. The chart just
gives you a cheat sheet for improvement, if you choose to use it.
✦ Unknown Birth Time
What if I don’t know my birth time?
Then I won’t give you a reading.
Without an accurate birth time and location, I wouldn’t be reading
your natal chart. It would be wrong.
✦ The Session
How does a session actually work?
You have to buy in to what we’re doing together.
Part of it is my intuition and part of it is what I read in the chart.
My intuition doesn’t replace the chart — it enhances it.
