Hello! I’m going to be using you as an example here. Hope you don’t mind.

How to interpret your birth chart:

Step 1: Input your birth information

Using this link, you can find the placements of the planets in your horoscope. You can use other sites, but I’ve found that this site is easy to use and understand. You’ll come across a page that looks like this: 

There, you need to input your date and location of birth, and if you have it, the time that you were born. 

Since the location of birth was not given, I decided to choose NYC.

Step 2: Find your birth chart wheel

Once you click the “next” button, an interactive birth chart wheel should appear, that looks a little like this.

Step 3: Interpreting each of the planets

This wheel not only shows the sun, moon, and the rest of the planets, but also shows the Ascendant/rising sign (determined by the time of birth). We can see that the asker’s moon is in the sign of Gemini. You can click on every planet shown for an interpretation. For instance, if I scroll down, I will see Anonymous’ Virgo sun.

If I click on the Sun’s symbol- the orange circle (ignore the rest of the symbols for now), an interpretation comes up for Sun in Virgo, as well as a description of what the Sun means and represents in your horoscope. 

You can find descriptions for the rest of the planets: from Mercury through Pluto. Here’s another example description of Moon in Gemini.

Step 4: Finding your aspects

Once you’ve thoroughly explored the planets’ descriptions, you can start to take a look at the aspects each planet makes. You can tell this by the lines connected between each planet: red lines indicate tension and growth, blue lines indicate inborn talents and ease of expression.

In addition, whenever you click on a planet, there is a list of the aspects it makes. For instance, with Anonymous’s Sun in Virgo:

The Sun (ego, vitality, persona) is square (in conflict) with the moon (emotions, private side)- this can make for difficulty in self-expression, but if this is worked through, can make for a creative and adaptable person.

The Sun (ego, vitality, persona) is sextile (in harmony) with Jupiter (luck, expansion, opportunity). This is a very easy area of expression, and makes for a person who has an optimistic view on life, can easily try out new things, and therefore seems to be very lucky.

This applies with all the planets- and if you’d like, you can fully explore your aspects in a reading here.

Stevie Nicks: The grand high witch, the regent of the coven. She oversees all and always will. Immortal and full of all-knowing wisdom, initially peaceful but also can (and will) kick your ass.

Hozier: May be possessed by the spring goddess side of Persephone. Spends most of his time in the mossy bogs in the realm of the fae. Sometimes reappears in the human world for brief periods of time, spreading fae wisdom to the humble masses before leaving again.

Zella Day: Modern witch caught between rural and urban magic. Cavorts in the dry, desert planes of the Southwest. Frequently surrounded by crystals and succulent plants. Wears a lot of maxi dresses, wide hats, and combat boots.

AURORA: Actual dryad tree spirit. Lives deep in the woods whispering ageless melodies into waterfalls. Lives at one with nature and is friends with the deer and the wolves. Thrives off of empathy and kindness. Has plans to build a paradise haven for the exiled and rejected peoples of the world.

Zolita: Love witch, harnesses passion and desire for the forces of good. Full of sapphic energy and communicates with Aphrodite. Leader of a badass coven of LGBTQ+ witches and a slowly brewing feminist rebellion.

Lola Blanc: Witch that managed to travel from an alternate jazz age steampunk timeline. Utilizes technological innovation in form mixed with traditional technique. May or may not have performed necromancy and hypnotism.

Banks: Perhaps the most chaotic dark witch of them all. Probably possessed by the queen of the dead side of Persephone, or maybe Hecate. Channels powerful energy from storms, lust, and conflict. Has a soft side she rarely lets anyone see.
