When you order an astrological birth chart from Zoetic Endeavours, you can receive it in the form of a custom-made art chartwheel print suitable for framing.
The circular birth chart, or chartwheel, is the traditional way of displaying the positions of the planets, Sun, Moon, Ascendant and other points of astrological significance, as they appeared on the zodiac at the time and place of your birth.
Conventional chartwheels are line charts rendered in black and white with coloured lines indicating the planetary aspects. Signs and planets are usually indicated by their glyphs.
Zoetic Endeavours chartwheels are artistically rendered in colour and surrounded by three images illustrating the signs of the Sun, Moon and Ascendant. A line image of a dragon serves as a backdrop to the inner circle and indicates the North and South Nodes of the Moon, known respectively as the Mouth and Tail of the Dragon. On the outer rim of the wheel, the 12 zodiac signs are indicated by name and a small colourful icon of their element (Earth,Water, Fire, Air). Planets are displayed as small stylized versions of the way they appear to the eye through a strong telescope, while the Sun and Moon are represented slightly more symbolically. You will easily recognize the larger celestial bodies. To help you distinguish between the smaller ones, the legend for these pictures is in the Personal Astrological Data leaflet that accompanies the chartwheel. The customized leaflet also provides the exact degree of each planet's position in its sign, and reiterates its aspects with other planets or astrological points.
The art chartwheel is inkjet printed on letter-size paper with water- and light-resistant inks, and is suitable for framing and displaying on your wall. For the best effect, we recommend matting with a dark-core matboard of a deep blue or purple colour to match the background of the print and extend the impression of the night sky. A standard 14 inch by 18 inch frame is a suitable size.

The Personal Astrological Data leaflet that accompanies the chartwheel provides only the raw data needed to render your birth information as a chartwheel. To understand your chart, however, you will need to know the meanings of the planets, zodiac signs and houses, and how to interpret the relationships between them. Zoetic Endeavours has published a booklet to help you explore the meaning of your birth chart. Interpreting your birth chart covers the basics to help you learn birth chart interpretation from scratch.
Or, if you prefer, we can provide a customized birth chart interpretation for you.
