Frequently asked questions
What is a solar return?
It is the chart of the moment the Sun returns to the exact degree it held when you were born. It happens once a year, close to your birthday, and astrology reads it as a symbolic portrait of the cycle from one birthday to the next.
Why do I need my birth time?
The time fixes the exact degree of your natal Sun. Without it, the moment of the return can move by several hours, and the rising sign of the year, which changes roughly every two hours, is no longer reliable.
Should I use my birthplace or where I live?
Both options exist in the tradition. Many people use the place where they will spend their birthday; if you leave it blank we use your birthplace. The moment is the same, but the rising sign and houses change with the place.
Does a solar return predict what will happen?
No. It suggests themes and areas of life that tend to ask for attention during the year. The choices stay yours; use the reading as a starting point for reflection.
How much does it cost?
The preview with the exact moment, the rising sign of the year and the theme is free and needs no account. The full reading uses credits from your account or a solar return bought on its own.
