DARK MODE

NORMAL THEME

Intro

Welcome to /r/astrologyreadings! This is where we post our charts! Feel free to ask for a reading or help read others, if you have some experience obv!

Please use astro.com preferably, or if you use astro-seek, be sure to click Custom Layout if you need to make a chart.

Please DO NOT USE astro-theme, astro-charts, co-star, justastrologythings, or cafe.astrology for chart readings here. They are trash

NO SIDEREAL CHARTS, PLEASE. AND NO DESTINY MATRIX STUFF. I can't believe I even have to write this.

And have degrees listed on the wheel chart for planets and cusps for better readability! For astro-seek, that means click Customize.

It's recommended to upload the chart to reddit's image link directly, or use imgur and post a link.

Do try to include all relevant information. Knowing your birth time is extremely helpful. If you are guessing or posting an approximate birth time, say so in your post. "Mom said" does not constitute accuracy, sorry. Also, astrologers prefer you not blur out pertinent birth data such as birth time. We have a wiki page with useful information that you should consider looking over.

If you are requesting a professional reading more in-depth than is typically provided here in the sub, please message the Mods. Several of our mods are professional, experienced astrologers who would be glad to assist with your individual request(s).

Rules

1) No spam. You will be banned on sight. No solicitation of paid readings, requests for DM's, links in your posts to offsite pages like facebook or instagram. You may be warned for that or banned, depending.

2) Be nice. Insults are unnecessary and will be removed. Bans may be handed out depending on rudeness.

3) POST YOUR CHART. This should go without saying. If you are asking for a reading, post a chart. Also, do not post charts of dogs, cats, water fountains, basketballs, or anything that isn't another human being. Refer to rule 2 about getting someone else's permission before posting their chart. We also advise that you take the time to slightly anonymize your chart at your discretion.

3a) When you post a chart or charts, please indicate whose they are (including yourself) Do NOT post someone else's chart (unless they are close family) without their permission. And please state explicitly that you have permission. Repeat offenders may be banned.

3b) If your OP is regarding recent a event(s), it is quite helpful to have a transit chart for that time period of the event overlaid your natal chart. If your OP is about a more long-term time-frame, a Secondary Progression chart overlaid your natal chart is recommended instead. Please leave off aspect lines in these cases, as they will obscure your natal chart.

4) NO SYNASTRIES (Compatibility), NO DRACONIC, & NO COMPOSITES(Only synastry exception being family members. That means it is established karma). Too many people have abused synastry in the sub, which is an open-ended reading at best.

5) No "Guess My Sign" selfies, RoastMe's, Will I Be Famous. No "Describe what I look like" narcissism. Go play elsewhere with that. There is a different subreddit for selfies.

6) Make a pertinent OP (header post) It's a given that there's a bit of narcissism in wanting an astrological reading, but it can be reasonable without getting ridiculous or toxic. We all want to know something more about ourselves. That's the point of this sub.

Therefore, don't make a Pity-Party OP, obviously narcissistic me-me-me, or vapid instagram type post.

7)Please DO NOT USE astro-theme, astro-charts, co-star, justastrologythings, or cafe.astrology for chart readings here. They are trash

NO SIDEREAL CHARTS, PLEASE.

8) SHUT UP ABOUT CHIRON, Lilith, etc. No Asteroid readings. Leave them out of your chart image. Asteroids, including Chiron have never been considered as having astral influence until recently, when new age pretenders shoehorned them in, in lieu of actual interpretive knowledge.

9) No AI cookbook or vanilla Copypasta. Use your brain and astro-experience or DON"T post replies. This should go without saying, but welp, here we are. Offenders are subject to ban.

10) DON'T ASK OPEN-ENDED MARRIAGE OR CHILDREN QUESTIONS such as "will I ever, when will I", etc. These are very common questions in Vedic astrology, but this sub is not geared in that direction.

11) MISC: If you want to to tip or pay to have your chart read, use the "Donation" flair please. Post charts- not just questions. We have created a tipjar format for validated, experienced astrologers.

DO NOT DM readers or other individuals for a private reading. You can message Mods via the Sidebar here with any questions; that's different and encouraged.

Try not to be blatantly narcissistic or shallow with stuff like "Will I be wealthy, famous" or "people think I'm this when I'm really that".

Helpful backset modding would be pointing out the rules and recommendations listed, such as advising someone posting with astro-charts to use a better site. Sometimes posting transits is helpful, but if you consider yourself a learning astrologer, have an online ephemeris available-https://www.astro.com/swisseph/swepha_e.htm so you can look them up yourself, if it is warranted.

Unhelpful backseat modding like requesting Whole Sign posting is not encouraged.

Don't just post an omg or an oh my or "My chart is exactly like that except this," type reply and scamper away. It's not helpful. Depending on mods' moods, you may be banned for that.

And though not required, it is highly encouraged to leave feedback and link directly to your chart.
