What to expect during a rise reading

Considering booking a Rise Reading but not sure quite what it entails? Here’s your Hey Let’s Rise guide to readings.

A birth chart reading, also known as a natal chart interpretation, is a personalised analysis of your individual astrological birth chart. This chart is a snapshot of the positions of the planets at the exact moment you entered this world and it serves as a blueprint of your personality traits, strengths, potential challenges, and life path. During a reading, an astrologer will talk you through the different elements of your chart and give context to the themes represented within it.

In the case of Hey Let’s Rise, readings are designed to show areas of life you have the most growth potential (where you can Rise) and the obstacles you can overcome by channelling your innate energy (what you can Rise out of), to create better balance and ease.

The areas and subjects covered in a Rise Reading include:

Sun sign (star sign): We identify your Sun sign, which represents your core essence, identity, and the fundamental traits associated with your star sign. The Sun sign provides insights into your basic personality traits and the central themes of your life.

Moon sign: Your Moon sign reflects your emotional nature, inner feelings, and subconscious patterns. Understanding your Moon sign helps reveal your emotional needs, instincts, and how you can care for yourself to better support your life goals.

Ascendant (Rising sign): The Ascendant, or Rising sign, indicates the way you present yourself to the world and your initial impression on others. It influences your approach to life and the wider themes of your life.

Planetary placements: We will analyse the positions of other planets (such as Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) in your birth chart to understand different aspects of your personality, talents, challenges, and life experiences.

Houses: Everyone’s chart is divided into twelve houses, each ruling different areas of life (e.g., relationships, career, home, health). During the reading we examine the significance of planets in specific houses, highlighting key areas of focus and potential life themes.

Aspects between planets: Looking at your chart allows us to assess the aspects (angles) formed between planets in your birth chart, such as conjunctions, squares, trines, and oppositions. These aspects reveal dynamics between different parts of your personality and potential strengths or challenges.

Life themes and potentials: During the reading we will discuss overarching life themes, potential talents, career inclinations, relationship dynamics, and areas for personal growth and development.

Practical advice and recommendations: The mission of Hey Let’s Rise is to use your individual birth chart to provide practical advice and recommendations specific to your unique energy, to help you navigate challenges, optimise opportunities, and align with your life's purpose - aka, to support your Rise.

Overall, a birth chart reading offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of your unique energetic make up. The purpose of a reading is to help grow self-awareness, understand your potentials and challenges, and allow you to make better-informed choices for multiple areas of your life.
