ALMOST LIKE A COMPASS, THIS IS A TOOL TO NAVIGATE SITUATIONS THAT ARE ALREADY DETERMINED IN OUR EXISTENCE
Beyond religious beliefs, for centuries the stars have guided civilizations, and their study has been crucial in areas such as agriculture management and international relations. This is why the natal chart is a tool that reveals important information that can help us improve our lives.
Astrologer Mariel Ferraro, who has spent years studying the stars and their influence on the planet, assures that getting a natal chart reading is a way to approach life’s experiences with greater clarity.
“It is the result of serious studies, based on precise measurements that define people’s destinies. Sometimes, there are things we struggle to understand, and this map reveals and clarifies many doubts,” she explains. “In fact, you can even see what your mission in this life is, because there are people who don’t have a clear direction and don’t know why they can’t move forward in a certain way—but once they know their information, the light appears.”
🔹 Through the analysis of the sky, humans establish a direct connection between their nature and destiny, chance, or karma.
🔹 When a person is born and takes their first breath, the planets are aligned in a specific way in the sky. Based on this position, astrology creates a geometric diagram that outlines their life plan.
🔹 Planetary positions form angles that indicate different aspects of a person’s life. They reveal the challenges they will face, the obstacles in their path, the lessons they must learn, and the recurring events they will experience.
🔹 Sometimes we wonder why we always encounter the same type of people—whether in our work life or in love. The natal chart helps us understand that this is not a coincidence but rather an opportunity to learn something.
🔹 Certain planetary angles allow energy to flow in our favor, representing talents and gifts known as “keys.” These serve as tools to help us navigate the challenges presented by other aspects of the chart.
🔹 We are born with a life map that determines our strengths and weaknesses, our opportunities and struggles, the lessons we must learn, and the experiences we will go through. It also reveals the nature of each individual.
🔹 The natal chart highlights one’s nature, challenges, and advantages that must be worked through and overcome. However, this does not mean that everything is set in stone. It acts as a map that dictates 50% of what will happen in life, while the remaining 50% is determined by free will.
🔹 There are things we cannot change, such as karma—life events that we are destined to face, no matter what. However, there is also something called dharma; from something negative, we can learn and create something positive. Understanding our natal chart teaches us how to navigate these situations.
🔹 It provides self-knowledge, which is essential. After all, who hasn’t experienced thinking one thing but reacting in the opposite way? The natal chart helps uncover the reasons behind these contradictions, and through self-awareness, one can gain better control over their nature.
🔹 A natal chart offers a comprehensive analysis, typically spanning 30 to 35 pages, detailing the most significant aspects that will accompany a person throughout their life.
🔹 Even death could be revealed in a natal chart, but an astrologer would need to spend days, months, or even years analyzing a person’s transits. However, if we were to study a terminally ill patient, we might be able to identify the transit associated with their passing.
For a natal chart to be effective and serve as a clear life map, it is essential to have astrological knowledge to measure the angles correctly. These are the basic details needed:
Every natal chart has 12 houses, which govern all aspects of our lives. By understanding them closely, we can uncover a great deal of information that may not make logical sense—since it is the stars that rule.
A natal chart is not just a tool that explains our behavior; it also reveals what we struggle to see clearly—such as our areas of opportunity, fears, and strengths.
This is not a problem, as there are specialized techniques to determine a person’s birth time.
One of the most reliable methods is natal chart rectification, a process in which, by analyzing significant life events, the birth time can be deduced with great accuracy.
To do this, the assistance of an experienced astrologer is necessary, as it is a detailed task that requires extensive knowledge and analysis. Ideally, this should always be studied by a skilled professional.
