The sky map is a cosmogram: a snapshot of the living sky at the current moment, with no tie to birth. Where the planets stand, in which signs and houses, how they face each other — this is the sky's “weather”, shared by everyone, like a clear day or a storm. The horoscope is made from it by the classical method astrology used long before newspapers: the chosen sign is placed on the Ascendant, houses are laid out by Whole Sign — and the shared sky reassembles into a forecast for that sign.
cosmogram = the sky's weather · the sign on the Ascendant = a sign horoscope · Whole Sign · lunations and eclipses — the moment's milestones
Metaphor: the natal chart is your house, the sky map is the street beneath its windows. The weather is the same for everyone, but each window has its own view: pick a sign — and the sky settles into your rooms.
