Free Sun, Moon and Rising calculator

You're more than your Sun sign.

Find your Big Three: Sun, Moon and Rising, using your birth date, recorded local time and birthplace. Astrology uses these labels for self-reflection; the calculations locate the sky, and interpretations are not scientific personality tests.

  • Calculated from astronomical positions for your exact time and place
  • Your Sun and Moon, plus Rising when your birth time is known
  • Plain English, no jargon

Your chart is free. The full personal reading is $37, if you want it: see what's in it.

Your recorded time sets Rising and houses. Without it, these are omitted and the Moon may be uncertain. What an unknown time changes.

What's in a birth chart?

Your Sun

Your core self: what lights you up and where you shine.

Your Moon

Your emotional needs: what makes you feel safe and at home.

Your Rising

Your first impression: how you meet the world and how it meets you.

Your planets

How you think, love, act, grow and learn, each in its own sign and house.

For entertainment and self-reflection. Astrology doesn't predict events or replace professional advice.

What changes your Big Three?

The date sets the starting point. The time zone at your birthplace converts the local clock time to an instant. Sun and Moon positions depend on that instant; the Moon moves enough that its sign may change during a day. Rising also depends on your birthplace coordinates and changes with time. Near a sign boundary, even a Sun sign needs care.

Without a time we use noon as an anchor, omit Rising and houses, and flag sign uncertainty. Read birth charts without birth time or why house systems differ. You see your chart straight away, and can add an email afterwards if you want the link.

Optional upgrade

Your full birth chart reading

Your free chart shows Sun and Moon placements, with Rising when your birth time is known and uncertainty notes when it is not. The full reading goes through your whole chart, written for it alone, in plain English:

  • Your Sun, Moon and Rising in depth: who you are, what you need, how you come across
  • Your five personal planets: how you think, love, act, grow and learn
  • Your houses: the areas of life each planet lights up for you
  • Your strongest aspects: the conversations between your planets
  • Your element balance, birth Moon phase and generation
  • Typically 2,400 to 2,800 words, depending on your chart
