The place reading
Astrocartography · Chinese astrology · Numerology · Your transits
Your planets drawn across the real map, the landscape your Chinese chart is asking for, and the years that open the door, woven into one answer: where you come alive, and when to go.
One-time purchase. Pay first, then a short form for you. Usually ready in about five minutes.
Juniper’s lines on the real map, with home in Sedona. Juniper is our sample seeker.
The four questions everyone asks before a move, in the order your reading answers them.
1 Where you are now
Your home town on your own map: which planets sit on its angles there, and what that feels like day to day.
“Sedona is a gentle, atmospheric place that suits your sensitivity but does little for your stated goals.”
2 Where you’d thrive
Every town scored from your chart, in the US and the world, for the life you want: home, money, love or a fresh start.
“Here it moves to your 1st, so the feelings you usually keep behind a door become the first thing people meet.”
3 On your mind
Name the places you’re weighing. Each one gets its own honest read: what it gives you, and what it costs.
“A workable place to earn and stir things up, not a place to put down roots.”
4 When to go
Your Personal Years and the exact transits to your new angles, dated: when to scout, when to move, when to wait.
“If you can, make the big move in spring 2027, hold the money asks for August 2027 and the autumn of 2028.”
Real pages from a sample reading, written for Juniper, our sample seeker.
One birth moment, read as a map. Your planets are drawn across the real map of the world, your Chinese chart is read as the landscape it is asking for, and your numbers mark the years that open the door. Not separate reports stapled together, but one voice that knows them all and answers one question: where?
Astrocartography measures where your planets meet the horizon. BaZi reads the five elements of your birth and the one you need more of. Numerology counts your years. None of them borrows a method from the others. So when your Jupiter rises in the mountains, and your chart is asking for Earth, and your Personal Year turns to a 1 just as you would move, that is not a coincidence. It is the rarest and most trustworthy thing a reading can show you.
Four instruments, one subject: where you belong.
Science I · Astrocartography
Every planet you were born with crosses the map on four angles: rising, culminating, setting and underfoot. Where a line runs, that planet is loud in your life. Your lines are computed from your exact birth minute, and every town is scored from them, not drawn by hand.
You see the lines through your home town, the best towns for the life you want, and the caution places, where a hard planet sits on an angle. Your money line is here too: the places where the planets that run your income rise.
Science II · Chinese astrology
Your Four Pillars have a Day Master, and an element it needs more of. That element is a landscape: Earth is mountains, Water is coasts and lakes, Fire is heat and the south, Wood is the east and green growth, Metal is the dry, clear west. Your reading tells you which ground feeds you.
For a Water Day Master with no Earth in the chart, mountain country gives the mist a shape. For an Earth Day Master, water and warmth are wealth, and a warm coast reads as a wealth landscape. It is both poetic and exact.
Science III · Your relocated chart
Move, and your planets change houses. For your best places, your reading shows which parts of your life step forward there: your work, your home, your love life, your money.
A planet hidden in your 12th house at birth can rise into your 1st somewhere else, and suddenly your name becomes the product. That is how a place can change a life without changing who you are.
Science IV · Numerology
Your Personal Year says what the year is for: a 9 for endings, a 1 for beginnings, a 6 for home. Your reading lines your years up with the move, and weighs each city’s own name number against your Life Path.
In the family reading, everyone’s years are read together, so you can see the year that is an ending for one of you, a beginning for another, and a year of home for a child.
A map tells you where. The timing turns it into a plan.
Three clocks run at once. The moving planets cross the angles of your new chart on exact dates. Your Personal Year turns. The Chinese year clashes with or feeds your birth branches. Your reading reads them together for the next two years and names the windows: the month to scout, the season to move, the money windows, and the months to leave alone for anything you can’t undo. Think of it as weather, never fate.

Exact, down to the town
Your lines come from the Swiss Ephemeris for the exact minute and place of your birth, and every town is scored from them. Nothing is eyeballed from a drawing.
Your pillars are computed from the Sun’s true position, with the solar new year set to the instant rather than a fixed date.
The reading is written from your own charts and proofread by a second pass against them. A draft with a factual error is rewritten.
Who Made This
A spiritual teacher, healer and clairvoyant, and the one person who builds and runs this site.
Michael’s grandmother cast his first natal chart by hand when he was five years old, and he has been reading the sky ever since. He has written code since he was seven, trained as a clairvoyant with the teachings of Michael Tamura, and holds live healing sessions over Zoom from Bend, Oregon. Where You Belong began with his own family’s question: where should we live next?
A real person reads every reply. Questions before you buy? hello@birthcharthoroscopes.com
A place reading that weaves four sciences into one answer: astrocartography, your relocated chart, Chinese astrology and numerology. It reads where you live now, ranks the places that serve you best in the US and the world, reads the places you are weighing, and dates the windows to scout and to move.
Best Place to Live reads your astrocartography for one intention. Where You Belong is the master reading: all your lines, the landscape your Chinese chart asks for, your numbers and your timing, woven together, and for a family, everyone at once.
Up to two adults and up to four children who live with you. Each person is charted from their own birth details, then everyone is read side by side. For a larger family, email us.
After you pay: your birth details (or, for a family, everyone’s), where you live now, up to three places you are weighing if you have them, and the one or two things that matter most to you, from home and money to love or a fresh start.
It still works. Without a time your lines can sit a few hundred miles east or west, so your reading says so, and the parts that need the hour are left out rather than guessed.
No. Think of it as weather, never fate. It shows where the sky supports you and where it asks more of you, so you can choose with your eyes open.
Somewhere on the map, your chart is already at home.
