Most people who have an interest in Astrology understand what their natal or birth chart is – the chart that depicts the position of the planets at the moment of birth – and how that can be read to describe your personality traits, life lessons and energies in this lifetime. Not as many people know about the Solar Return chart or why it’s beneficial to get a Solar Return reading every year, so let’s talk about it!
What is a Solar Return chart?
The Solar Return chart is an astrological chart created for the exact moment when the Sun returns to the same position it occupied at the time of your birth, which typically happens on or around your birthday each year. For example, if your natal Sun is located at 11 degrees 32 minutes Gemini, then the astrologer will calculate the chart according to the exact date and time that the Sun reaches 11 degrees 32 minutes Gemini in the current year. The Solar Return can technically occur sometimes up to a day before or after your actual birthday for the same reason that we have Leap Years. The Solar Return chart offers insights into the themes, energies, challenges and opportunities that will be prominent in your life for the coming year.
How does it work?
The chart is based on the positions of the planets at the time of your Solar Return, and it reflects the unique influences and potential experiences you may encounter over the next 12 or so months. Because the energies from year to year overlap, you may feel the influence of the next year’s energies towards the end of the current year. For this reason, it’s a good idea to get a head start on the energies by getting your reading in the 30-60 days before your birthday. It’s like receiving a personalized roadmap for your spiritual and personal journey for the year ahead.
What are the benefits of getting a Solar Return reading?
Spiritual Alignment: The Solar Return chart helps align your spiritual path with the cosmic energies at play. By understanding the influences, you can make conscious choices that resonate with your higher self and spiritual goals.
Empowerment and Growth: The insights from a Solar Return reading empower you to work with the energies of the year, rather than against them. This proactive approach reduces resistance and confusion, fostering growth as you focus on areas of your life that are ready for expansion, healing, or transformation.
Navigating Life’s Cycles: Life is full of cycles, and the Solar Return chart helps you tune into these natural rhythms. By getting a reading each year, you stay attuned to these cycles, allowing you to know where to direct your focus as well as better navigate the transitions and changes that come your way with more ease and grace.
Personalized Guidance: Unlike general horoscopes, a Solar Return reading is specific to you because it’s based on your natal chart. This personalized guidance ensures that you’re receiving advice and insights tailored to your unique journey, making it a valuable tool for personal and spiritual development.
When should I get a Solar Return reading?
You should schedule your Solar Return reading ideally during the 30-60 days before your birthday every year. Because each year brings new energies and shifts in your life’s focus, getting a Solar Return reading annually ensures that you stay updated on the evolving influences, allowing you to make the most of each year’s unique opportunities.
However, it’s never too late to schedule a Solar Return reading. Depending on where you are in the cycle, your Astrologer can explain the energies you’re experiencing in relation to your current Solar return, helping you to understand the life lessons and spiritual goals your soul is working on at this time.
Life is a continuous journey of growth and learning. Yearly Solar Return readings help you maintain momentum on your path, providing you with the insights needed to stay aligned with your spiritual and personal goals. It’s a powerful way to connect with the energies of the cosmos, gain insights into your personal evolution, expand your consciousness, and align your focus with your spiritual journey. By engaging with this tool annually, you can navigate your life with greater clarity, purpose, and spiritual alignment.
