Calculator
Your year ahead, grounded in your chart
Enter your birth details and a year. We calculate your natal chart, then the annual transits and Solar Return that stand out in that year — with timing windows and the engine evidence behind each theme.
Calculate your year ahead
Birth date, time and place build your natal chart. Forecast year selects the year to scan. You do not need an account.
What you'll get
A free year-ahead preview from your actual chart: the cycles that carry the most weight, when they are active, and the calculated facts behind each theme. This is not a sun-sign horoscope, not Today's Sky (what is active now), and not the natal Full Reading (your birth-chart baseline).
- Themes that stand out across the selected year
- Timing windows and exact peak dates from the engine
- Solar Return moment and standout return placements
- Evidence you can open — not a fortune-telling script
How the Yearly Forecast works
The same astronomy engine that builds your natal chart scans that year for transit hits against your placements, then computes the Solar Return — the chart for the moment the Sun returns to its natal position. Interpretation is written from those facts.
After you calculate, you confirm the Solar Return location (where you expect to be around your birthday). That place changes the return houses and angles; your natal chart stays the same.
Annual transits vs Solar Return
Annual transits are moving planets contacting your natal chart during the selected year. They show where pressure, growth, or change is timed.
The Solar Return is a snapshot for that birthday year. Together they describe what stands out across the year — not a prediction of events, and not a day-by-day sky like Today's Sky.
Birth-time accuracy
An exact birth time improves house and angle work in both the natal chart and the Solar Return. If you do not know your time, tick the option in the form — we leave time-dependent angles out rather than guessing.
Transit-to-natal contacts that do not need the Rising sign can still be calculated. Read why birth time matters if you are unsure how precise the time needs to be.
