AstroCartography Anecdotes: Where Will You Grow in 2018?

AstroLocality also known as AstroCartography, has been my astrological area of focus and research for 12 years now. Once I discovered AstroCartography at the beginning of my Astrology career, I was both impressed and inspired by the accuracy this tool had to describe my life experiences, relationships, and events living and traveling in different parts of the world.

At the beginning of the year, we start to ask WHERE can I grow the most this year? Perhaps we don’t feel quite so at home where we live, or maybe we cant’ seem to find the kind of work that fulfills our soul, or the community that inspires us, or the relationship that opens our heart.

Once we relocate your birth chart to different regions of the world, we can discover the various potential life circumstance there. The different planets, or intelligences inside of you, can grow in different capacities depending on our location. Also, certain places ‘call’ to us at certain times—the planets invite a particular kind of evolution depending on their cycles over regions of the earth. This Relocating Forecasting is called Cyclocartography, an important and often overlooked element of AstroCartography, and a big part of my work.

This last September I journeyed to my Venus line again, very strong in Lisbon, Portugal. (I posted a video about Venus lines, both famous and personal examples here) I had asked to offer some music at the Digital Nomad Conference, since their speaker line-up was full. But just a few weeks before the conference, I inquired if there was any space to give a quick download about my favorite astrology topic, AstroLocality, and surprisingly I was invited to give a full 90 minute workshop on the topic + play music.

The presentation + music resulted in a number of new clients and new friends. (Venus rules both social contacts and money, in addition to the arts). I even met someone in which there was a strong mutual attraction and she literally had 4 planets close to my Venus!! I also found the city of Lisbon and the extended region along the coast and in the fairy tale castle vortex of Sintra to be extremely beautiful—Venus/Aphrodite was of course, the goddess of beauty.

Just this last week, I was invited to be part of the House Band as well as offer personal consultations in Astrology and Human Design at a Tantra Festival in Portugal this coming Summer. Once again, my Venus is asked to shine in this area of the world, especially in her particular costume, Gemini, in my chart. I am speaking, teaching, performing, doing consultations (all Gemini traits). This also occurred in 2010, my first trip to Portugal, when I taught and read charts at the Boom Festival, and when I also began a significant relationship in my life.

Venus rules my 5th house as well, an area associated with romance, good luck, recreation, and creative self-expression—all of which have been quite strong themes along this line for me.

“Before VerDarLuz’s Relocation Strategy session, my girlfriend and I were at a crossroads. I could not live where she was and she could not live where I was. VerDarLuz found the mutual, supportive location where we both wanted to live. Now she and I are setting sail to live our life together.” –

Astro-Locality assists each of us in finding love, in all the right places. A famous “love-lines” example is Brad Pitt. Brad was born in Oklahoma and his Moon and Venus Local Space lines arc out through Southern California, extremely close to Hollywood. 

All of Venus’s representations have been actualized by Brad in this location. First, his wife Angelina and his former partner Jennifer Aniston, were both born in Los Angeles.  Typically, Venus lines will show us where very significant relationships can existe for us.

Secondly, Venus represents our creativity and aesthetics.  Brad performs his art of acting in Hollywood.  He also earns millions of dollars for his roles, and Venus rules money, in addition to love and creativity.  His Venus is in the sign of Capricorn and Brad has achieved his Capricornian ambitions of being a successful, well-respected, and hard-working actor.

Also, a man with a Venus in Capricorn is attracted to a female partner who is also devoted to her long term success.  Typically, this male will also want to be in committed and enduring partnerships with successful people.  Brad was with hugely famous actress Jennifer Aniston for 7 years and his relationship with Angelina Jolie ended after 11 years together and the creation of a large family together.

These days, few of us live where we were born.  This fact alone suggests the vital importance of interpreting our birth charts as if we were born in the area we currently live.  Although the imprint of your birth chart will always be carried with you, your influences will be vastly different depending on where you travel to or reside.  Thus, all of us would benefit from recognizing the differences in our charts from one location to the next.

The foundation of AstroLocality, or Relocation Astrology, lies in a few basic ideas. In Step 1 of this artful science, we must relocate your birth chart to a city you would like to move or travel to, using that city as your location.  We can also relocate your birth chart to where you currently reside.

This relocated chart is then interpreted to tell us what influences and life experiences will be most dominant in that location for you.  The various planets—which represent intelligences, teachers, and psychological functions—will become more or less prominent, and they will radiate energy into certain areas of your life.

If, for instance, you were born on the East Coast, but moved to California in your 20‘s, all of your planets—the various psychological forces within you—would be radiating their influence in different houses, or spheres of life experience.  Just by moving one time zone, you might shift a concentration of planets in your 6th house—a heavy burden of daily tasks, health issues, and stress—into your 7th house, and now your area of relationships will be affected by those same planets, affecting all partnerships in ways to particular to those planetary meanings.  If you move Saturn and Pluto into your 6th house, and you are seeking a light-hearted, playful, romantic relationship, this shift will not support you at all, since Saturn is about serious commitments, hardship, and tests of stamina, while Pluto is about dramatic intensity and transformation.

All aspects of life—career, love, financial fulfillment, family, spiritual and artistic pursuits—have their more ideal and less attractive power places in your country of origin and on the earth as a whole.  No location is perfect for all aspects of life.  But with the many aspects of AstroLocality we describe in other posts, and with the clarity of a client’s intention for relocation or travel, we can weigh the pros and cons of specific locations to find the most supportive places for an individual, a couple, or a family.  In this process, we often discover significant locations that may never have been on your radar.
