In this post, I go over the anatomy of a sidereal birth chart in the Divination For Liberation framework. You can use this guide to cast your sidereal birth chart.
PLANETS
MOON • SUN • MERCURY • VENUS MARS • JUPITER • SATURN are the planets used in Divination For Liberation Sidereal Astrology.
Planets are people first.
Subsequently, they are essential aspects of the self that are formed and developed inside relationships.
SIDEREAL ZODIAC SIGNS
There are 12 signs in Divination For Liberation Sidereal Astrology:
CANCER • LEO • VIRGO • LIBRA • SCORPIO • SAGITTARIUS • CAPRICORN • AQUARIUS • PISCES • ARIES • TAURUS • GEMINI
Each sign is under the authority of a planet. Sidereal zodiac signs establish a hierarchy of relationship & survival priorities based on a scheme of planetary authority.
HOUSES
There are 12 houses in a sidereal birth chart; there is one sign in each house. Houses are where the planets are situated. Houses represent specific people and relationships, topics as areas of one’s life, and body parts. Houses are also a time keeping tool that tells us the when of the who, what, and how that is signified by the planets and signs.
TOOLS & TASKS
Each of the 12 sidereal zodiac signs falls into one TOOL category: WATER • FIRE • EARTH • AIR; and one TASK category: CARDINAL • FIXED • MUTABLE
The distribution of TOOLS in your sidereal birth chart tells you what you have needed to survive your life experiences (relationships) and get your needs met from birth til death (inside relationships) in the form of behaviors, beliefs, skills, talents, traits, and habits.
The distribution of TASKS tells you what kinds of experiences that have given you the tools you’ve used to survive.
