Solar Return (SR)
Method
Each year, when the Sun returns to its birth degree (around your birthday), a natal chart is cast. This chart is a forecast for the year.
Interpretation Rules
1. SR Ascendant: Theme of the year (Aries = action year, Taurus = stability year).
2. Sun's position: Main theme of the year.
3. SR Moon: Emotional tone.
4. SR planets aspecting natal planets: Specific events.
Important Note
The Solar Return should be calculated for your current location, not birth location. Even if you are in a different city, use coordinates for that city.
Connection to Natal Chart
The Solar Return does not replace the natal chart – it activates its potential for a specific year.
