The natal chart, often referred to as the birth chart, is a depiction of the location of the planets at the exact time and location of a person’s birth. The natal chart shows where the planets are from the perspective of the earth (represented by the houses) and also includes the effect of the background constellations (represented by the signs of the zodiac). The picture below is an example of a natal (birth) chart. More explanation will be given below on this apparently complicated chart. It will make sense to you as you go through the contents of this tutorial.
