Unlock your full blueprint.
Free Big 3 preview, then the paid tiers: AI natal report, the three-tradition synthesis, or the extended reading with audio — Hellenistic dignity, Vedic nakshatras, and BaZi four pillars reconciled in a single delineation. (The annual retainer is currently waitlist-only.)

Your chart, on a Dial you can turn.
Turn the Dial to move the sky over your own natal chart. See when a transit enters and leaves orb, plus any exact contacts, across one or several passes, alongside the time-lord bands available in your saved chart.
Included with the paid AI Natal Report, Year Ahead, Three-Tradition and Extended readings, over the date range shown on each card. The personalized Dial requires a known birth time; untimed readings do not include it.
The free Dial shows the sky from 1850 to 2100 (Pluto: 1885–2099); your free chart keeps Sun, Moon and Rising at their sign centres. Natal degrees and aspects remain part of a paid reading.
How is Charting Stars different from Co-Star?
Co-Star is a phone app built around Sun-sign weather and an app-store login. Charting Stars is a browser observatory: you cast a natal chart from date, time, and place with no app-store login, see a free Big 3, and can buy a $19.99 Hellenistic reading for the rest. We compute VSOP87 positions; we do not gamify a sign.
What does the $19.99 natal chart reading include?
The AI Natal Report is a one-time $19.99 Hellenistic delineation of your exact natal chart: planets, houses, dignity, sect, lots, and aspects in about 3,000 words. It generates in minutes after you confirm birth details. Start with the free Big 3 preview if you have not cast a chart yet.

What is Charting Stars?
Charting Stars (https://chartingstars.com) is an astrology observatory that computes natal charts from exact birth data and sells written readings. The free calculator is at https://chartingstars.com/chart; plans are listed at https://chartingstars.com/pricing.
What do I get for free?
Everyone gets a free Big 3 preview — Sun, Moon, and Rising — at https://chartingstars.com/chart, with no email required. Try the free Dial at /sky-now: drag through the real sky from 1850 to 2100 (Pluto: 1885–2099). On /chart, your Sun, Moon and Rising sit at their sign centres; natal degrees and aspects stay part of the paid chart. Full natal depth and written delineation are paid products; which traditions and date ranges are included depends on the reading you choose.
What do I need for a birth chart?
Date of birth, time of birth (from a birth certificate when possible), and birth city. A precise birth time gives an accurate Rising sign and house placements. Without a time, the free calculator at https://chartingstars.com/chart casts Sun and Moon for local noon and withholds Rising; paid readings need a birth time.
How is the daily horoscope personalized?
Unlike the public Sun-sign pages, the $4.99/mo Daily Horoscope factors in your natal chart: current transits to your placements. Subscribers get up to six contacts a day plus a 30-day outer-planet lookahead. Public sign horoscopes remain free at https://chartingstars.com/horoscope.
What are the paid reading prices?
Live one-time readings: AI Natal Report $19.99, Vedic Reading $19.99, Synastry $29, Composite $29, Year Ahead $59, Three-Tradition $240, Extended $420. The personalized Daily Horoscope is $4.99 per month and Observatory Membership $7.99 per month. The $680 Annual Retainer is waitlist-only and not currently on sale. See https://chartingstars.com/pricing.
How fast do I get my reading?
After payment you confirm birth details on a short intake (prefilled if you started from your chart). The $19.99 AI Natal Report and $29 relationship readings generate in a couple of minutes; the multi-pass $240–$420 tiers can take several minutes to assemble their sections.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes. Cancel anytime. Access continues through the end of the billed period.
Do you offer refunds?
One-time readings have a 7-day satisfaction refund: write to hello@chartingstars.com if you are not happy with the reading.
Which readings include the interactive Dial, and for how long?
Turn the Dial to move the sky over your own natal chart. See when a transit enters and leaves orb, plus any exact contacts, across one or several passes, alongside the time-lord bands available in your saved chart. The personalized Dial requires a known birth time; untimed readings do not include it. AI Natal Report: Interactive Dial on your chart (known birth time required): the UTC calendar year your reading is generated, plus the previous and following years. Year Ahead: Interactive Dial on your chart (known birth time required): twelve months from when your reading is generated. Three-Tradition and Extended: birth year through 2100, within the supported sky range (Pluto: 1885–2099). Vedic, Synastry and Composite readings do not currently include this own-chart Dial. The Daily Horoscope remains a daily transit letter, not an own-chart Dial subscription. Observatory Membership ($7.99/mo at https://chartingstars.com/timeline) puts your own natal chart on the Dial from your birth year to 2100, with the reading that changes as you turn it; unlike a reading's Dial, it does not need a known birth time (without one, the Moon and the angles carry no windows); billed monthly, cancel anytime. Open your saved reading and sign in with its delivery email to load your personal transit timeline. It describes astronomical timing, not predictions of life events; contacts to the Rising or Midheaven are dated to the day and depend on your birth time.
