There are many benefits to being able to read your own natal chart, even if you are a beginner at this and you would still like to see a professional astrologer. One of these is the amount of insight you will bring forward by your own inquisitive nature into this process, as you delve into some of the gems your natal chart has to offer. You will be able to see all the main energies that are showing forth in your chart and therefore be able to look further into what these mean for you and how they have helped you or created blockages for you throughout your life. You can learn to overcome these blockages.

You can then work from there at smoothing out these challenges by gaining a deeper understanding of how they work. Knowing about the hidden talents and attributes in your chart can also help you to build on your strengths and improve the satisfaction in your life or your confidence where you need to.

Step 3 – Find Your Element and Modality Weightings

Wherever you have calculated your natal chart, there should be a section to tell you how many planets you have in which element or modality. This can be very telling about your personality and the way you deal with life’s situations. For example, each planet will be in one of the elements, which are Earth, Air, Fire and Water and it will also be in one of the modalities, which are Fixed, Mutable and Cardinal. If you have most planets in the fixed modality, for example, your nature will be quite like the fixed modality, which is steady, strong and resourceful.

Step 4 – Which of Your Houses Occupy the Most Planets?

Have a look at your chart and see that it is divided into 12 sections or ‘pieces of pie’. Each of these sections is a house, which are numbered from 1 to 12 in an anti-clockwise direction from your Ascendant. Wherever you calculated your natal chart, these will be numbered so finding which house is which will be easy. Now the next step is to have a look at which of your houses holds the most planets and especially which house holds your Sun and your Moon.
