What’s the difference between becoming a Moon Chat Member and just following along with my Moon Chat Map?
With both you can watch along with the YouTube videos and/or listen to the Podcasts. The main benefits to becoming a Moon Chat Member are
- Custom Messages – you don’t need to consult your map, we automatically do that for you and send you a custom email with the house being activated
- Straight forward messages – on top of telling you which house, the email also references the phase we’re in, the dates around the entire Moon Family and exactly what action to take and when
- we make it a 2-Way Conversation – you reply to the emails sent to you with your intentions/what you did/noticed and when the next phase in that Moon Family comes along we send that history back to you, so you don’t need to keep track of everything! Moon Chat really makes working with the phases as effortless as possible.
- Video Tutorials are included with your membership that provide great guidance on how to work with each phase and how to make the most of your membership – you can reference them at any time
- it’s risk-free! You can cancel any time.
Birth Time
Why is my Birth Time needed?
Your birth time determines the orientation – or “clock-face” – of your chart, which determines which zodiac sign rules which house. For example, with your birth time, we know if a New Moon in Pisces is activating your career, your love life, your health, etc.
How important is an accurate Birth Time?
What if I know my birth time within 1-2 hours?
- Generate your chart on astro-seek.com (click on Free Charts and then Birth Natal Chart Online Calculator) using the earliest possible birth time and scroll down to the 1st house and note what Zodiac sign the Ascendant is in. (Note: Ascendant is another term for “rising sign”.)
- Generate your chart again using the latest possible birth time.
- If the Ascendant remains the same for both times, you have found your rising sign.
- If the rising sign differs, you have narrowed it down to two possibilities. Read the descriptions for both signs and ask friends and family for their perceptions to determine which one resonates more with you.
What can I do if I don’t know my Birth Time?
Well, I have good news – you have a few options!
First, do your research:
- Request your long-form birth certificate from the hospital or local vital statistics office, as it may include your birth time.
- Search for clues in family records like baby books, photo albums, scrapbooks, or family bibles.
- Ask your parents, caregivers, or anyone present at your birth if they remember the approximate time of day you were born.
Second, try this online chart rectification tool. [LINK: https://astro-app.net/rectification.php?lang=en&appSize=0} This is a great (and free) place to start if you can’t find your birth time anywhere and are all out of options. “Chart Rectification” is the reconstruction of a time of birth, usually through timing important events in your life, and correlating them with hypothetical house cusps or Axis. There are very mixed reviews of this method. I recommend going through it and making a strong effort to answer the detailed questions accurately. Once you get your result, read the descriptions online for the sign and ask friends and family for their perceptions as well. If it does not at all resonate, move on to the 3rd option when you are able.
As a last resort, consider having your chart rectified by an astrologer who specializes in this technique. While not an exact science, chart rectification can help narrow down your birth time. At this time I don’t make referrals for chart rectification. Ask for referrals from your networks or online communities to find a trusted astrologer who offers this service.
Working with the Phases
Why is it important to hand write my intentions on the New Moon?
When we write things by hand we engage both our conscious mind as well as our subconscious mind. In this way, hand writing serves as a tool that not only further solidifies these intentions within the subconscious but allows the subconscious to actively work towards achieving them by reinforcing positive thoughts and beliefs. Physically writing intentions down basically “programs” your brain to align with your intentions. And if our brain can be working on our behalf without any conscious effort on our part, well, that’s pretty amazing!
