The Astral Life bases its horoscopes on established Western astrology methods and astronomical data. We use ephemeris tables to track precise planetary positions, movements, aspects, and retrogrades, ensuring accuracy in timing and alignment analysis. We also incorporate data on lunar cycles, including new moons, full moons, and eclipses, as these phases often mark emotional and situational turning points. By analyzing planetary transits, major aspects, long-term outer planet movements, and moon phases, we create forecasts that reflect current celestial conditions rather than general assumptions.

Your Moon sign is determined by which zodiac sign the Moon was in at the exact time of your birth. Since the Moon moves through all 12 signs roughly every 28 days, knowing your birth time helps pinpoint it accurately. The Moon governs your instincts, feelings, needs, and subconscious patterns. It reflects how you process emotions, what makes you feel safe and nurtured, and how you behave in private or in close relationships. Many astrologers consider the Moon sign just as important, sometimes more so, than the Sun sign for understanding a person's deeper nature.
Your Sun sign is the zodiac sign the Sun was moving through on the day you were born. In astrology, the Sun represents your core identity and life purpose. Hence, your Sun sign shapes your fundamental personality traits, your ambitions, and the qualities you're here to develop throughout your life.
Your rising sign is the zodiac sign that was on the eastern horizon at the exact moment and location of your birth. It shifts roughly every two hours, which is why an accurate birth time is essential to calculate it. It shapes how others perceive you and your instinctive responses to new situations.
Astrology does not claim to predict the future. Instead, it looks at patterns and cycles reflected in the movement of the planets in relation to your birth chart. By studying planetary transits, aspects, and timing, it points to periods when certain themes, like career shifts, emotional growth, relationships, or challenges, may come more strongly into focus.
Therefore, rather than telling you exactly what will happen, astrology suggests what may be unfolding beneath the surface and where your attention might be most useful.
For the most accurate reading, go by your Rising sign (also known as your Ascendant). Horoscopes are based on how planets move through the houses of your chart, and your Rising sign is what determines those houses. To find yours, you'll need your exact birth time and location.
That said, your Sun sign is still worth reading. It reflects your core identity, ego, and sense of purpose, so it often resonates on a more personal level. We use it as the default since not everyone has their birth time or location to hand.
The best move is to read both. Your Rising sign tends to reflect what's going on around you, your circumstances, whilst your Sun sign goes deeper, getting at who you actually are.
