Natal Chart / Western Astrology
A natal chart maps the exact positions of the Sun, Moon, and planets at the moment and location of birth across 12 signs and 12 houses. Because houses and the Ascendant depend on geographic coordinates, this discipline strictly requires birth location.
Western Astrology shares the same birth profile with Zi Wei — simply confirm exact coordinates when live.
Direct chart casting is not yet live — this page introduces the methodology with an illustrative chart, not real user data.
