As astrology becomes more and more mainstream, you might have been hearing a lot about how your full astrological birth chart plays into your zodiac sign and personality traits. This can be very confusing if you don’t know what we’re talking about.
If you’ve never felt like you quite ‘connected’ with your zodiac sign, it could be because you’re missing out on your full astrological birth chart. Read more to learn just how your birth chart changes your outlook on the zodiac, and your horoscope, entirely.
Wait… Aren’t All Leo’s Leaders? Aren’t All Libra’s Flirts? What’s Happening?
Many people discount astrology and their zodiac readings because they don’t identify closely with the traditional traits of their signs.
Leo’s are leaders, Libra’s are flirts, Aries are high energy… these are ‘known facts’ in the zodiac world. But what are you supposed to do if you’re timid as an Aries, or hate being in charge as a Leo?
The answer is your birth chart.
What is an Astrological Birth Chart?
The astrological birth chart has been around for a long time, but it’s only become mainstream in the last few years, and more people embrace their zodiac signs and astrological reading. Now, it’s almost impossible to avoid this if you have even a passing interest in the zodiac.
So your “sign” – Leo, Pisces, etc – is your “sun sign”. This is the position of the sun at the time of your birth, and it only represents a small facet of your full personality.
Your complete birth chart, however, shows the position of all the planets at the time of your birth, the moon… it takes into account every position to give you a full idea of who you are according to the universe.
It’s basically a comic, universal blueprint to yourself. While your situation and life play a part, this is the ‘core’ of who you are. The bones, the foundation.
How to Find a Birth Chart You Trust?
This is a tricky question, because as astrology becomes more popular, more and more people are becoming ‘experts’ in the subject. How to find your birth chart, then, and know it’s real?
First all of, you’re going to need your date and time of birth – which you can get from your birth certificate usually, or give a parent a call to see if they can assist you.
Then, use a trusted site, like Astro, to input all your important information and generate a chart.
While reading your chart, remember that this is your blueprint, not your whole. These are the bare bones, and some of your personality quirks and emotional responses could be from the experiences you’ve had since your birth.
Finding your birth chart is going to give you more insight into both your personal zodiac sign and what personality traits are coming from where. If you’ve ever felt disconnected to your zodiac sign, or you want a better idea of who you are based on the universe, obtaining your full astrological birth chart is a must.
This isn’t just a trend; this is here to stay, and it’s amazing.
