Natal Astrology
Perhaps the most popular form of astrology, natal astrology is based on when a person is born and is used to ascertain personality and several key things in a person’s life. To have a natal chart done, it is necessary to have the date of birth, the place of birth, and an accurate time of birth as being off – even by a couple of minutes – can change things drastically. In these natal reports, I use a combination of modern and traditional techniques to get to heart of the person and their station in life by dividing it into three parts. The first part is the Psychological Cookbook wherein I use the rules of modern psychological astrology to get into the heart of a person. The second part is the Traditional Aphorisms, where I use the rules of traditional astrology to ascertain various things about the person the chart belongs to. The final part is the Backdrop of Stars, where I use a list of prominent fixed stars in the sky that make a huge difference in natal techniques.

Solar Returns
Solar returns are based off of natal charts. By erecting a chart for the moment the sun moves back into the position of the Zodiac that it was at the birth of a person (a day or two before or after their birthday), you can get a prediction of several events that are to occur in the year following the return. Let’s say in your chart the sun is at 9°47’ Leo, you would then set the solar return chart for the moment the sun moves back into that position every following year. Through this technique, several things can be predicted and prepared for.
