Compare the draconic chart with the natal chart

Turn the chart so the north node sits at 0° Aries, and read the draconic planets against the natal ones.

  1. 1

    Open the draconic chart

    Go to Western → Draconic Chart. The whole birth chart is turned until the north node sits at 0° Aries. Every planet keeps its distance from the node, so the aspects inside the chart are the natal ones; what changes is the sign each planet and cusp falls in.

    It is measured from the node, so it is the same in every zodiac.

    Lay it over the natal chart

    Draconic shows the draconic chart on its own, with Major aspects or All. With natal puts the natal chart inside and the draconic planets on the outer ring.

    Draconic positions gives each body's draconic sign and degree, its house and its natal position. A planet keeps its birth house, except with Whole Sign houses, which start again from the draconic Ascendant's sign.

    Read the contacts

    Draconic-to-natal contacts lists the draconic planets against the natal planets and angles, on tight orbs: 2° for the conjunction, square, trine and opposition and 1.5° for the sextile. The grid beside it shows the same contacts, draconic in rows and natal in columns.
