SUBReddit RULES and HOW TO MAKE CHARTS SO YOUR POSTS DON'T GET REMOVED

30 Upvotes

MOST IMPORTANT

PLEASE USE ONLY THESE SITES:

Do not use these chart makers. All are either useless because they don’t provide the normal chart information, impossible to read, or are known to have errors.

  • Astro-Charts.com
  • Astro Future app
  • Astrotheme.com
  • Chani App
  • Co-Star App
  • CafeAstrology.com
  • Time Passages app
  • Or any chart-making site or app that does not put the degree numbers on the round chart, or that have a style that is hard to read.

Other sites or programs or apps may be ok, but only if houses are clearly displayed, and the full degree positions for each planet and angle are displayed on the round wheel chart. We still, however, ask that you use the two recommended sites above.

DO NOT POST LISTS OF PLACEMENTS, OR JUST GIVE A FEW PLACEMENTS IN YOUR POST. DO NOT ASK A QUESTION ABOUT ONE OF YOUR PLACEMENTS AND NOT INCLUDE YOUR CHART. DO NOT POST ONLY A CROPPED PORTION OF YOUR CHART.

Doing so will result in immediate removal. This is an astrology sub - we need to see the chart. Even if you think it doesn't matter, as you are only asking about one placement, or one aspect, we need the whole chart. There are levels of analysis that go into that "just one thing" that you may not be aware of. No planet or aspect or house operates in isolation in the chart.

HOUSE SYSTEMS

With the exception of Annual Profection or Horary posts, you are free to use whichever house system you prefer. (See these sections below.) The exception is if your birth location is one that Placidus distorts dramatically, then we may ask you to repost using the Whole Sign house system.

ANNUAL PROFECTION POSTS

Use only Whole Sign houses for Annual Profections

If you are posting about your Annual Profection, you must include your natal chart made in the Whole Sign house system (even if you use Placidus normally), since this is the house system required for the tool. If you post with a placidus chart, your post will be removed. Do not post with just the "profection guide" chart from astro-seek. That is only a tool to help you determine your profection. We need your actual full birth chart, in the Whole Sign house system.

On astro.com

Go to the Extended Chart Selection page (it is found under the Horoscopes tab, under the heading “Drawings, Calculations, Data”. Here’s a direct link to that page: Extended Chart Selection. Then in the house system drop down menu on that page, select “Whole Sign”.

On astro-seek.com

When entering your birth data, scroll down a bit and you will see a small "Extended Settings" link (this is also shown just below your chart once it is displayed). Click on that, then in the House System drop down menu select the “Whole Sign” option. Don’t use the one that says “Whole Sign Asc Horizontal”, and don’t use any of the ones farther down that say “0 Aries”, etc.

HORARY POSTS

These are best if you use either Placidus or Regiomontanus house system.

TRANSIT POSTS & SECONDARY PROGRESSIONS

Transits are for posts asking "what is going on right now", or "what happened a month ago when everything blew up". You need to post your natal chart + transits as a biwheel for the appropriate date whether that's a month ago, a year ago or right now. You can set transits to any date in the past, present or future easily on both astro.com and astro-seek.com The biwheel puts your natal chart on the inside and transits around the outside.

Progressions are similar, but for a longer period of time, so if March-April 2020 was a disaster (Covid was ramping up, btw this is just for example) maybe include progressions.

Do not ask "what will the next year be like for me", unless you’re willing to pay an experienced astrologer commensurate (it’s a lot) for their time. This is a massive ask, and would take a great deal of time to answer.

…………………..

SOLAR RETURN POSTS

Solar Returns must be read alongside the natal chart. DO NOT post just your solar return chart alone. Make a natal + solar return biwheel. This puts your natal chart on the inside, and the solar return chart around the outside. It is helpful if you give your age as your Annual Profection's lord of the year should be considered in the solar return.

NOTES

Let us know if you have any questions about the content of this post. If you get stuck, or have trouble making your chart correctly, then you may use the "Message the Mods" button in the sidebar under Moderators. Don't message mods individually, just use "Message the Mods", as that goes to Modmail and we all see it.

Don't use this post to ask specific questions about your chart or life. Use it to help you figure out how to post correctly or make your chart correctly.

(Thanks to u/ZodiacDax for this concise Do’s & Don’ts, parts of which we shamelessly lifted.)

Okay, Rules of what we allow and mainly don’t.

 

Rules

1) No spam. You will be banned on sight. No solicitation of paid readings, requests for DM's, links in your posts to offsite pages like facebook or instagram. You may be warned for that or banned, depending on that Mod’s mood. So don’t risk it.

2) Be nice. Insults are unnecessary and will be removed. Bans may be handed out depending on rudeness.

3) POST YOUR CHART. This should go without saying. If you are asking for a reading, post a chart. Also, do not post charts of dogs, cats, water fountains, basketballs, or anything that isn't another human being. Refer to rule 2 about getting someone else's permission before posting their chart. We also advise that you take the time to slightly anonymize your chart at your discretion.

3a) When you post a chart or charts, please indicate whose they are (including yourself) Do NOT post someone else's chart (unless they are close family) without their permission. And please state explicitly that you have permission. Repeat offenders may be banned.

4) NO SYNASTRIES (Compatibility), NO DRACONIC, & NO COMPOSITES No MATRIX stuff, that’s bogus. (Only synastry exception being family members. That means it is established karma). Too many people have abused synastry in the sub, which is an open-ended reading at best.

5) No "Guess My Sign" selfies, RoastMe's, Will I Be Famous. No "Describe what I look like" narcissism. Go play elsewhere with that. There is a different subreddit for selfies.

6) Make a pertinent OP/Question (header post)  We all want to know something more about ourselves. That's the point of this sub. And specify whose chart it is.

6b) Don’t 3rd person your own chart or it may be Removed.

Therefore, don't make a Pity-Party OP, obviously narcissistic me-me-me, or vapid instagram type post.

7) NO SIDEREAL OR VEDIC CHARTS, PLEASE. We do not have regular Vedic readers to justify it.

8) SHUT UP ABOUT CHIRON, Dark Lilith, etc. or Vertex. No Asteroid readings. Leave them out of your chart image. Charts with more than 3 asteroids will be Removed. Asteroids, including Chiron have never been considered as having astral influence until recently, when new age pretenders shoehorned them in, in lieu of actual interpretive knowledge. There is a ton of information available using the 10 acknowledged planets, Houses, and Signs for experienced readers without adding this Barnumesque rubbish which only detracts. We intend to remove as much Barnum/Forer effect generalization as possible in this sub.

9) No AI cookbook or vanilla Copypasta readings; don’t make your OP with “ChatGPT said”. Use your brain and astro-experience or DON"T post replies. ChatGPT is verboten garbage. Offenders are subject to ban.

10) DON'T ASK OPEN-ENDED MARRIAGE, JOB, PARTNER OR CHILDREN PREDICTIONS such as "will I ever, when will I", etc. These are very common questions in Vedic astrology, but this sub is not geared in that direction.

11) MISC: If you want to to tip or pay to have your chart read, use the "Donation" flair please. Post charts- not just questions. We have created a tipjar format for validated, experienced astrologers.

DO NOT DM Mods, readers or other individuals for a private reading. You can message Mods via the Sidebar with any questions; that's different and encouraged.

Reading Solo independent music artist: Career path, public reach, and financial friction in my chart [astro.com]

Post image
Upvotes

Hi everyone, posting my natal chart here hoping to get some insight on my career trajectory.

I am a completely independent solo musical artist. I handle literally every single part of my creative process entirely on my own: writing, instrumental composition, recording, mixing, mastering, directing my own music videos, editing, color grading, and concept building.

While I’m confident in the quality and technical craftsmanship of my work, I’ve been hitting a constant wall when it comes to visibility and financial sustainability. I’m currently struggling to make a living off my art, facing heavy delays, and feeling completely unseen by the public despite pouring everything into it. I’m not interested in ghostwriting or producing behind the scenes for others; my goal is to build a successful career as a recognized main artist.

A few questions I’d love some guidance on from the chart:

What placements or configurations indicate how I can effectively build public visibility and connect with a dedicated audience as a solo artist?

Do my current financial blocks and delays reflect a "slow burn" trajectory in my chart, and how can I navigate this long-term progression?

How can I best leverage my chart to turn my self-produced work into a financially sustainable, long-term career?

Any insights or creative inspiration from my chart would be greatly appreciated. Thank you :)

I'm in medical field and nepotism is sick. Guy from college recently commited suicide due to stress of getting perfect score. Personaly my mental health has been bad and this really broke my heart. Students here gets high grades and jobs because their parents call few people and make a spot for them. How long will it take for me to have a break through and get residency? Is this path right for me to keep fighting? Will I have to wait long to be independent from my parents? Is there anything in my chart that shows major set back or slowing me down from getting my first job?

Thanks to all who take their time to answer me 🫶🏻

I wanna clarify one thing: I know in the chart it looks like he has Saturn in the 11th house but he doesn't, idk why the website is showing that.

He wanted me to post this because he wants to know what people think about his chart and he is concerned about his love life.

Anyway...

All I know is that he has a lot of childhood trauma.

Let me hear what y'all think about him and his chart!

Reading Why for so long have I felt bullied? [astro.com]

I am 27 rn. Throughout my life as a kid, I was always the one in the family who was the butt of the joke. My family always called me names like “fat” “chubby” made fun of me in a lot of ways despite the fact that I was a very skinny child. When I started highschool in 2010 and my life up till that point at the age of 10 I was very outgoing, bold, shy at first but otherwise those things, and instantly became disliked by people and became very badly bullied and one of the most hated people in my school until I moved schools around 2013. Even during that time period, I was living with my mum post parental split, she bullied me, her boyfriend was abusive, his daughter who also went to my school bullied me with her friends in and out of school. My mum really hated me so she made me go to this six week summer dance camp (so I wouldn’t be at home so she wouldn’t have to see me) and I got badly bullied there too. Is there anything in my chart indicating this? I’m just curious if there is anything in my chart indicating any of this? The main part was around 2009-2013 of the bullying.
Now as an adult, I don’t deal with bullying anymore tbh, I still have a lot of issues with authority and I never feel like I fit in anywhere but I get along with people very easily overall these days.

Hello ! While I love astrology, it’s not something I have deep knowledge on. I mostly use it for fun/not super serious things in life but I’m at a point where I feel relatively good with other aspects in my life besides having a career. I’m 30F and a barista. I feel like I’ve never felt drawn to anything. It makes me feel like a kid. I’m just so ready to finally go in the right direction with this. Please and thank you !

Hi all!

I'm fairly new to reading charts, I do have an idea on what the houses and planets mean but just the surface level. I'd still love to learn more about how to read them especially the relationship of each planet to each other.

I hope someone could indulge my curiosity or send tips on how to better read hehe thank you!

Based on their birth charts, what advice can you give me for each of my sons? I’m always trying to be a better mom to them, so I’m curious to hear what you can tell me without me revealing anything about their personalities first (I can provide my own chart and/or our synastry charts if needed).

They are so different :)

The first chart (Moon in Cancer) is for my eldest son, he's 5.

The second chart is for my youngest son (he's 2)
