Chart Components πΊ
A natal chart is made up of four main building blocks:
- Planets β The what. These show different energies (ex: Mercury = communication).
- Signs β The how. Each planet expresses itself through a zodiac sign.
- Houses β The where. The areas of life (career, relationships, family) where energy plays out.
- Aspects β The how they interact. Planets form angles that create harmony, tension, or growth.
Example
- Mars in Leo in the 5th House: Passion (Mars) is expressed dramatically (Leo) in the area of creativity, romance, and hobbies (5th House).
When you read a chart, youβre always blending planet + sign + house + aspect.
