Free Birth Chart Readings: Astrology, Saturn Return, and Tarot

Free birth chart reading: Declinations, Algol, and Saturn return

The offer was still active. Free birth chart readings, by arrival order, without favoritism, with a prior warning that did not invite optimism: those who do them will go slowly and will take, he says, 'as long as I want.' Nevertheless, the answers kept coming and the queue did not dissolve. It was enough to provide place and date of birth—and the hour, very useful but not essential—to receive a broad interpretation that promised to get the most out of the astral chart. The method was explained step by step, including the website.

The method: declinations, planets out of bounds, and house system

The procedure was not a parlor game. The proposal combined the house system by ascendant with declinations and planets out of bounds, in addition to a prior Tarot reading based on three numbers between 1 and 22 to investigate the origin of each querent. To obtain the chart, a specific website was indicated—astro.com, section Chart drawing, ascendant—and it was warned that without birth hour the reading would lose precision, although it could be supplemented by setting 12 noon. Whoever did not know the place could resort to an approximate coordinate and mention it.

The author described himself as an amateur who studies several systems, not as a professional. And he made it clear that there was no hurry: 'This will be extremely slow,' he warned, before inviting those who wanted fast readings to find their own way.

The skeptical response: pseudoscience and free will

The rejection came with the same enthusiasm as the requests. A recurrent reply maintained that astrology is 'a system of beliefs or pseudoscience that lacks reliability and scientific rigor,' without ministerial approval or presence in university study plans. Others closed the door directly: refusing to share birth data, invoking free will, and reminding that no one should live conditioned by the pattern of an era. Some even cited themselves as irrefutable proof that astrology lies.

There were also those who suspected a covert collection of personal data. The answer was dry: any server collects IP addresses, and those who antiestéticar for their privacy have other channels. The warnings that the chart would be taken 'to the grave' coexisted with astral charts published without much ceremony.

Algol, the 27 club, and Saturn return

From there, the matter specialized. The star Algol—the eye of the Medusa, according to tradition—began to circulate as a marker of bad luck: a forum user cited the case of a person with Juno in opposition to Algol who at 33 had not had a partner, and Maria Antonieta was mentioned as an example of a beheaded person. Supposed studies linking certain aspects toward Algol with people who died beheaded were also mentioned.

The Saturn return worked as an explanatory wildcard. A forum user pointed out that the deceased of the so-called 27 club—the group of musicians who died at that age—were just starting that cycle when they died. And the author himself linked his bad streak to a Saturn return in Pisces, with Saturn in the seventh house and an alleged extreme risk of romantic breakup.

What does it miccionan to have many retrograde planets in the birth chart?

According to the author of the readings, a retrograde planet is not necessarily bad: there are planets, such as Saturn, that may function better retrograde if not well aspected. The problem arises with the accumulation. Having many—and cases with an uncommon quantity were mentioned—was associated with complicated lives or not being especially brilliant. The interpretation included a curious fact: those born with more retrograde planets show more interest in astrology, perhaps because they seek answers to specific problems. The breakdown that supports this relationship is noted, with cases and figures, beyond what can be summarized.

The 90% accuracy and the dilemma of repeating it in public

Here the matter got interesting. A person who had requested their reading acknowledged that the degree of accuracy in very intimate matters approached 90%, and confessed the dilemma of answering in public to descriptions they considered extraordinarily intimate. Other accounts pointed to transits that would have nailed the date of entering extra money or the arrival of a job by vocation. Even the most skeptical admitted that the general tone was not enough to explain the specific hits.

Chiron, the mother, and reincarnation

In the final stretch, the readings drifted into more slippery terrain. A square between Chiron and the Moon was interpreted as a childhood wound linked to an authoritarian mother, with the Moon in Leo and Chiron in Taurus, and the warning that certain physical attributes should not upset anyone because the origin of the complex was outside the person. Alongside that appeared the karmic hypotheses: the possibility of being the reincarnation of a grandmother, or of having incarnated after abusa someone.

Supposed psychic abilities were attributed to specific combinations: Saturn, Neptune, Pluto, Venus, Moon, and perhaps Uranus in air or water signs. A chart with Cancer and Scorpio ascendant was greeted as concentration of forces and summarized with irony as 'lots of seafood.' Some participants emphasized that the chart is not a sentence and that this energy can be worked on.

Where the analysis gets stuck

And there everything gets stuck. If the chart is fixed at the moment of birth, how does it explain the prior relationship with the mother or hypothetical soul pacts? The author himself maintains that everything important happens through a transit, that there is little free will, and that we live inside a symbolic machine, to the point that this knowledge, he says, 'prevents even deaths.' The underlying objection—the destiny written at the zero point versus the energy that can be worked on—was left on the table.
