How to read a solar return chart

Hi, guys.

I haven't written in a week or two, or so, ( or whatever ), but I've been playing around with solar return charts lately. A solar return is when the sun goes into the very degrees that the sun was in when you were born. Therefore, when you read a solar return chart it takes place from birthday to birthday.

A mistake I made when I first began looking at solar return charts is when I thought it lasted one calandar year and I was reading mine wrong. Sometimes it would not make sense. At any rate, it just goes from birthday to birthday.

A solar return is how life basically is for the given birthday year. It shows trends. You can look for new relationships, marriage, babies, new jobs, school crap, and everything. But remember: it shows trends. You can have Pluto in the 5H and not get preggo. Just sayin.' But you might become more serious with your creative projects, or get into an intense dating style. But yeah Pluto in the 5H is said to indicate pregnancy, but also keep in mind too you can get pregnant without Pluto being there as well.

When looking at the solar return, LOOK for:

- The sun's house placement. That is probably the most important part of the solar return. It will show the most basic trend in the year. For example: If your sun falls into the 3H, communication will be key that year, but also you could have more car troubles. If your sun falls into the 9H, you could start college/university, or you see your studies as taking up more time than usual. Or you could just travel the globe.



- The Solar Return Asc and where its ruler is located. For example: Your Solar Return Asc could be in Leo and the sun could be in the 5H. 5H matters are key for that year. If you're a Pisces asc natally, you might find yourself more dramatic, cheerful, or generous in the coming year.

- The solar return moon shows a trend in your emotions for the year. House placement is key and shows what area of life this manifests in.

- Venus indicates your love life and money in the coming year.



An example of my Solar Return chart for current:







Uranus is in the 9H. In the past year, I have changed universities. It is aspecting Moon in the 2H, showing I probably have some sort of emotional self worth stemming from higher education. I also got money from higher education too.

Four planets in the fifth house. This year, I have taken more risks with my heart and unfortunately continue to do so. Note that my chart ruler is also in the 5H, since my Solar return Asc is Leo. ( I went on a date last Thursday, too, and dating rules the 5H. )

I got Venus aspecting Neptune/7H. Right now I am in a situation with a guy, where I WANT to consider him a friend, but I can't. Because he's more than a friend to me. So I don't know how to define our "relationship." We're not boyfriend and girlfriend, but not friends. But we want to be more than friends. Aspecting Venus may show a creative side to us; we do talk about creativity and I think he and I sometimes see the world through rose colored glasses.
