Relocation Chart Calculator

What This Tool Shows

A relocation chart (also called astrolocality or astrocartography) recasts your birth chart for any location on Earth while keeping the same birth time and date. By changing only the geographic coordinates, you see how different locations emphasize different parts of your chart through shifted house cusps and Ascendant.

• Relocated Ascendant - Your personality expression and approach to life shifts based on location
• Relocated Houses - Different cities place your planets in different life areas, changing focus and manifestation
• Angular Planets - Planets near angles (Ascendant, Descendant, MC, IC) become powerfully emphasized in that location
• Planetary Lines - Geographic lines where specific planets are exactly angular, showing optimal locations for different purposes
• Location Comparisons - Compare multiple cities to find the best energetic fit for your goals
• Travel & Living - Whether relocating permanently or traveling, understand how locations affect you

Example Output Reference

The relocation chart displays your natal planetary positions with recalculated houses and Ascendant for a new location. Planetary positions remain the same, but angular emphasis changes dramatically. This is an example reference only - your personal relocation requires your exact birth data.

Your personalized relocation chart will be calculated with precision using your specific birth data and any location worldwide in the AstroMatrix app.

Example Interpretation Snapshot

When you generate your personal relocation chart in AstroMatrix, you receive detailed interpretations for how different locations activate your natal chart. Here's what a typical reading includes:

Relocated to Los Angeles: Sun on Midheaven

With your natal Sun relocated to the Midheaven (10th house cusp) in Los Angeles, your core identity and vitality powerfully express through career and public life. This location amplifies professional visibility, leadership opportunities, and public recognition. Your Sun's natural qualities become your calling card in this city, making it excellent for career advancement.

Relocated to London: Venus on Descendant

In London, your natal Venus falls exactly on the Descendant (7th house cusp), emphasizing partnerships, relationships, and social connection. This location enhances romantic opportunities, attracts harmonious partnerships, and strengthens diplomatic skills. Venus angular here makes London ideal for relationship development or partnership-based ventures.

Relocated to Tokyo: Moon on IC

Your natal Moon relocated to the IC (4th house cusp) in Tokyo emphasizes emotional security, home, family, and ancestral connections. This placement deepens emotional life and creates strong attachment to place. Tokyo would feel like an emotional homecoming, ideal for establishing roots or doing deep inner work.

Relocated to Paris: Jupiter in 2nd House

While not angular, your natal Jupiter shifts into the 2nd house in Paris, emphasizing financial expansion and value development. This location favors income growth, resource accumulation, and developing your talents into tangible assets. Paris activates Jupiter's abundance potential through material manifestation.

These interpretations reveal how the same birth chart expresses differently based on geographic location.

Calculation Method & Options

AstroMatrix calculates relocation charts using professional-grade Swiss Ephemeris data with precise geographic coordinates for locations worldwide:

Relocation vs Natal Chart

Your planetary positions remain identical to your natal chart - sign placements and aspects don't change. What changes is the Ascendant, Midheaven, and house cusps based on new geographic coordinates. This shifts which life areas planets occupy and which planets become angular (near Ascendant, Descendant, MC, or IC).

Angular Emphasis

Planets within 3° of the four angles (Ascendant, Descendant, MC, IC) become powerfully emphasized in that location. Angular planets dominate the chart's expression, making their energies highly visible and active in your life at that location.

Astrocartography Lines

Advanced relocation analysis includes mapping your planetary lines across a world map - geographic lines where each planet is exactly angular. Living on or visiting locations along these lines intensifies that planet's influence. For example, a Venus line brings relationship and beauty emphasis.

House Systems

Use the same house system for relocation charts as your natal chart - typically Placidus or Whole Sign. House system choice affects how dramatically house placements shift with location changes.

Practical Relocation Applications

Choosing Where to Live

Before relocating permanently, examine relocation charts for potential cities. Look for locations that place benefic planets (Venus, Jupiter) angular or in favorable houses aligned with your goals. Avoid locations emphasizing challenging natal configurations unless you're specifically working to transform those energies.

Career Advancement

For career focus, seek locations placing Sun, Mars, or Saturn near the Midheaven or in the 10th house. These locations amplify professional drive and public recognition. Your natal 10th house ruler becoming angular in a new location also strengthens career potential there.

Relationship & Social Life

For partnership emphasis, choose locations placing Venus, Moon, or your 7th house ruler near the Descendant or in the 7th house. These locations enhance social connection and attract relationship opportunities.

Travel Planning

Even temporary travel activates relocation energies. Visiting locations along your planetary lines provides experiential learning about how different energies manifest. Short trips to Venus line locations often bring romance or pleasure, while Jupiter line visits may bring opportunities and expansion.
