A couple weeks ago I wrote about the zodiac signs and how the constellations were placed in the sky. There are so many more components to zodiacs than just constellations. I briefly mentioned how everyone has a sun, moon and rising sign which is included in your birth chart. A birth chart is based on the date, time and place you were born.  

Your birth chart can reveal your strengths and weaknesses, your personality and different things you may need to look out for within yourself or the people around. Based on where your signs land on your birth chart, you can understand what other signs you are most compatible with.

With birth charts being so popular, there are many websites that offer to show you your free birth chart. A very reliable source for birth charts and other astrology needs is Astrodienst. Astrodienst has been a registered enterprise since 1984. Then in 1996 the company went to the internet. There are also 8 million monthly users.

Astrodienst is a website that does not make you jump through hoops to find out information about your birth chart or zodiac sign. You do not have to fill out any prior information or put your email down. There are different categories like daily horoscopes for you or for you and your partner. Categories range from your love life or even a test that identifies your struggles based on what colors you choose.

While there is not a direct or completely factual correlation between real life and birth charts, it is still enjoyable to dig deeper in astrology.

The rising sign which can also be called the ascension sign influences our outer personality, how others perceive us, and how we interact with the world around us. The rising sign represents you socially. Are you charming? Diplomatic? Thoughtful?
