@The Astrology Podcast This is just superb, I've been looking for "what does a natal chart tell you?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Riyharlotte Cerebral Rule - (search on google ) ? It is an awesome exclusive guide for discovering how to discover your destiny using your cosmic natal chart minus the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my friend got excellent results with it.

Question- scientifically how do planets affect personality? I used to be very interested in this type of stuff but I don't know if it's true I definitely think my personality is very accurate based on my placements but it could be a coincidence 😎👍
@@kingadjust6201 There is no such thing as “scientifically” within astrology. Astrology is not recognized as a science. But as an astrologer I can say that placement of planets in signs do HUGELY affect personality, especially those of personal planets and luminaries (sun, moon and internal planets - Mercury, Mars and Venus). Signs AND house placements define a huge part of your personality. With social (Jupiter and Saturn) and transpersonal planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) houses and aspects to personal planeta usually give more info than signs, since those planets are slow and your whole generation has the same placements. Do not forget the axes: rising sign and Midheaven are very relevant, and any planet conjunct there has a much bigger impact than other planets in your chart. Some astrologers we do also apply this criteria to the nodes
I have a book on Astrology and have watched about 10 other videos and I was still confused until I saw your video! thank you for being so clear about what everything means! i was beginning to think I was just not smart enough to understand this but your video made it all make sense!
I've been studying astrology for about a year now and mostly understood reading charts to a certain degree but this basics video has been so helpful in making me understand more. I always enjoy the way you explain things very thoroughly and in very simple language to understand for any level of learner
I’m gonna bring back some early 90s slang here because I feel it’s totally appropriate… you are da bomb! lol Who knew five years later this video would grace my presence? So fortunate to have found you and your channel. The clarity you bring is such a blessing for us newbies! 🙏🏼 thank you
What I love about RUclips is that people like you put information out and it reaches people when they are ready to receive it. I have read some of these comments and they all said pretty much what I thought, I have seen other videos and thought I understood most of the basics, but I learned a lot from this video and many of your videos. I need to learn to start watching the video on one device so I can look at charts on another device lol. I’m always pausing and then switching to another app to cast a chart. I learn so much from your videos. Thank you so much for sharing these with us!
This is crystal clear! Thank you, I'm finally starting to understand how to read my chart. I used to read books but was still confused. This is a game-changer.
Wow I've been trying to learn this for months already, I started with videos and books but I was able to really understand the chart because of you. Thank you for your gift of teaching. Thank you so much!
I love this tutorial! I have sent it to a few friends who are looking to learn to read their chart but maybe aren't ready for a "school". It's short (for you, lol), and I feel that is helpful because too much information when you're just learning is confusing. I remember when I was first learning and sometimes the classes were 2 hours and by the end, my head was spinning. Thanks as always, Chris!
You are such an amazing teacher with patient, a calm voice and so much knowledge. Great video. The watcher surely understands the basics of astrology. Keep it up!
Finally! I've been searching for a video that fully describes the chart for an absolute beginner. All others use terminology without defining them or showing on the chart what they refer to. Thank you so much for explaining everything clearly and visually.

Yes! This is so informative and easy to follow. I've been watching tons of videos trying to learn to read a chart, but all of them pretty much talk about what things mean (ie, mercury in Aries) rather than how to read an actual chart.
Wow I've been looking for a description video FOREVER.. this is exactly what I needed!! You taught this exactly the way I need to learn it.. I'm a details person.. like the way u explained what each component IS, rather than only noting what it means if it's in a certain position.. that's what most videos do.. it's like reading a book on how to fix a car without knowing how or with in the first place lol... anywho thank you so very, very, very much for this video, and being an Awesome teacher!!
Thank you very much. That was fantastic. It answered so many of my questions in such a clear manner. Have discovered if I want to know anything, you are my go to man. 😊. Greetings from Australia.
Wow. I watched many videos on this topic, because I got really interested in this lately. And I swear to God all those "easy for beginners" videos were so confusing! But this video was so well explained and I feel like I actually do know what I'm looking at right now! Thank you!
finally found a video which explains very thoroughly and clearly how all these elements tie together in a natal chart! thank you, Chris. This is amazing and it motivates me to learn more about astrology :)
Very lovely explanation so I had to like and follow am gonna watch the video again before I start with questions and see you on your website thanks for the video
Thank you so much for this exceptional video! This is the best one I've found for reading a chart with such clarity and ease to understand! I am a late in life, new student of astrology. I am really enjoying your podcast as well.
Thank you, Chris. You are a great teacher! Wish I had known about this video a year ago when I started looking at my own birth chart. I thought I'd watch to see if I'm getting it right. The aspects are very challenging for me, but I will keep at it. Side note: I grew up in Denver. Born and raised. Still in Colorado, just further north. Take Care!
Thank you for this!!! I was looking everywhere online to try and figure out what the two sets of degrees meant next to each planet... now I know it's the minutes and seconds that are listed as well as degrees within the sign. This wasn't clear anywhere else I found. Great details and SO helpful.
Thank you so much!! You've really helped me understand how to read the chart. I've been studying astrology and the signs for over a year now so it feels good to be able to read the basics of my own chart and now dive deeper into it!! :)
This is truly amazing! When I give birth chart readings to my Soul clients, I also give them a link to this video so they have it as an evergreen resource. Thank you so much for letting me share you with others✨
Thank you so much for all your information! I’m so interested in learning more but can’t afford actual classes. So much appreciate all your videos I’m binging currently 😊
What a great video....im just starting to learn astrology....this is so helpful....unfortunately cant get my birth time... no many people seem to have that on their birth certificate 😊
Thanks Chris and you really explains it simple. As nubie it is so important to have teacher that lays it out well 🙏🏾Now it is time for me to hit the next video, I really love this!
Thank you so much for being such an amazing teacher. Your explanations are very thorough and concise; very professor like and useful. Especially grateful considering Astrology is so complex.
Just found your channel and really enjoy it! A newbie to the world 🌍 of Astrology and learning so much from your wonderful videos 😊 love your teaching style too. thank you so much for doing what you do. 👍😊
Thank you so much. This is the first video I found that I can actually follow and understand how to read the birth chart. Immediately liked and subscribed!
Wow! Amazing video Chris and thank you. It has got me totally hooked and I am really keen on moving on to the next level. Am going to memorise the symbols as suggested. Thank you once again for making it easy to understand.

Did u touch on the dotted lines
@@heyyou6830 Dotted green lines are the quincunx aspect, and smaller dotted lines in black are other minor aspects. Mainly important to focus on the major aspects indicated by the blue and red lines.
It doesn't let me use whole sign for house.
@@lailagillani If you go to their extended chart selection you can pick different house systems like whole sign houses.
You're not just a good astrologer. You're an exceptional teacher. You could teach anything.

Agreed. This is fantastic. Ty
First time I ever fully understood birth charts! Thank you for this easy going and clear explanation!

This was so helpful! And I learned that watching Sailor Moon actually was educational, cause I know the glyphs to the planets since early childhood :D
Chris you are such an amazing teacher. I am hoping to take your classes next spring. I would love to see a video from you on the aspects.

Thank You Chris Brennan. Much love.
You make this so simple to understand even though it is so complex. You are an amazing teacher! ❤
An amazingly straightforward explanation. The video game analogy was a nice touch. Good work
I have spent at least an hour trying to understand these different things and your video just addressed all my questions. Thank you!

This video is more clearer and than the other videos i have watched. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Really appreciate it. 🙏

Crazy thing is, someone somewhere was probably born at that exact time and you're reading an actual person's chart.
Yeah-nothing's wrong with that. We all have a twin somewhere.
The location will probably be different but yes, there might be overlaps.
Yes the location is what is the difference in the angles of light
