What is a natal chart?

A natal (birth) chart is a map of the sky for the exact date, time, and place of your birth. It shows where the Sun, Moon, planets, and key points sat across the twelve zodiac signs and houses, and the angles (aspects) between them — the basis of a western astrology reading.

What is western astrology?

Western (tropical) astrology interprets the positions of the planets relative to the seasons, using the tropical zodiac anchored to the equinoxes. Ocean Gull calculates these positions with the Swiss Ephemeris for professional accuracy.

What ephemeris does Ocean Gull use?
