Solar Return Chart — FAQ
What is a solar return chart?
A solar return chart — also called a solar revolution or birthday chart — is cast for the exact moment each year when the Sun returns to the precise degree it held at your birth. It maps the themes and focus of the twelve months ahead.
Is a solar return the same as your birthday?
It's tied to your birthday but not always the exact date. The Sun returns to its natal degree on or within about a day of your birthday, so your solar return can fall the day before or after depending on the year.
Is a solar return chart the same as a birth chart?
No. Your birth chart is fixed for life. A solar return chart is recalculated every year for your birthday and describes that single year, layered on top of your birth chart.
How do I read a solar return chart?
Start with the solar return Ascendant (the year's tone), then the house your solar return Sun falls in (where the spotlight is), then the Moon and any planets close to the angles. Together they outline the year's main themes.
Does location matter for a solar return chart?
Yes. The chart is cast for wherever you are on your birthday, not your birthplace, so your location shifts the houses and angles. Some people travel on their birthday to reshape their solar return chart.
How long does a solar return last?
One year — from one birthday to the next. Its themes are strongest around your birthday and unfold across the following twelve months.
