Free birth chart calculator

The birth chart is the picture of the sky at the moment of your birth, seen from your place of birth: where the Sun, Moon and planets stood, which sign was rising in the east, and how the sky divides into twelve houses. Tradition reads from it how a person is made.

Name (optional)

Date of birth

Time of birth (as exact as possible)

Place of birth (or the nearest larger city)

The calculation runs in your browser; nothing is sent. It uses the time zone and summer time of earlier years, Placidus houses, and the lunar node and Lilith as mean points. Checked against two astronomical references: the planets differ by less than a tenth of a degree. The reading is tradition, not a verdict on a person.

What the birth chart shows

The signs: how the Sun, Moon and planets express themselves. The Sun is your zodiac sign, the Moon your feelings.
The houses: in which area of life they work, from how you come across to quiet and retreat.
The ascendant and the Midheaven: how you come across to others and where you are heading in life.
The angles: which forces work together and which rub against each other.
Lunar node, Lilith, Saturn return: the path of growth, the hidden wild side, the great tests.
