How To Do Your Own Astrological Chart

*Author's update August 2021: The free software I give a link to in the book, Astrolog, has been updated and confirmed by its author as compatible with Windows 10. It can also now have its source code compiled to Mac or Unix/Linux if you are conversant with doing that.*

Hi, I was a professional astrologer for more than two decades, and having had so many clients express curiosity about how a chart is created and interpreted, I've put together this little 'How-To' book on how to do it yourself. It's aimed at beginners who have an interest in astrology but no previous experience in creating a chart.

Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to be a math wizard to do the calculations involved. In this book, you will be instructed on how to either use a computer program to do the calculations for you (highly recommended), or be brave and follow the alternative instructions on how to do it all yourself the hard way. In the first part of the book, I give you links to where you can download free versions of all the materials you will need, kindly provided for free on various websites.

The latter part of the book consists of one big reference database in which I've composed individual interpretations for every planet, sign, House and aspect, which you can put together to create a full chart reading.

So, this is not another 'Sun Sign' book, but is about what goes on behind the creating and interpretation of a complete birth chart, and shows you, hopefully easily and painlessly, how to do it yourself. I try to keep things as simplified and straightforward as possible in order to reduce 'information overload'!

Thanks for looking and I hope you will find this book informative and enjoyable!
