The Natal Chart

The map of the heavens at birth.

The natal chart captures the celestial configuration at the moment of birth, revealing the individual's potentials, challenges, and purpose. It is a map for self-understanding, not a fixed destiny.

The wise person rules their stars; the fool is ruled by them.
