Frequently asked questions

What does the cardinal, fixed or mutable result mean?

It gives you a focused way to see whether your chart leans toward starting, sustaining or adapting. Read it as one layer of a larger chart, not a fixed verdict about your personality or future.

You need your birth date, time, UTC offset and coordinates when the result depends on angles. The form only asks for details used in the calculation.

Planet positions are calculated astronomically. Rising signs and houses are sensitive to birth time, coordinates and the correct historical UTC offset.
