AstroView: your sky, in 3D
The planets, the moment you arrived. Enter your birth details and fly through the exact sky you were born under, free.
Free, no account. Your chart is drawn in your own browser and your birth details are never stored on our servers.
A birth chart you can fly through
A natal chart is usually a flat wheel of glyphs. AstroView draws the thing the wheel is a diagram of: the actual solar system at your birth moment, in three dimensions, with real bright stars behind it. Every planet sits where it physically stood when you took your first breath. Sight lines run from Earth through each planet and land on the zodiac band at your chart's exact degrees, so you can see with your own eyes why your Mars is "in" a sign.
Tap anything and it tells you what it is in your chart and what that placement means, in plain language. A guided tour walks your whole chart placement by placement, from the wide shot of the solar system down to your own horizon: the houses carved out of the sky from the place and minute you were born.
What you can do with it
- Explore every placement: planets, houses, aspects, and angles, each one tappable and explained from your own chart
- Watch today's sky: a live mode with a time bar that scrubs hours, days, months, or years, every frame recomputed exactly
- Switch the lens: view your sky through the tropical, sidereal (Lahiri), or draconic zodiac, with Whole Sign houses as an option; the planets never move, the labels do
- Share your sky: one link sends someone straight into your rendered sky, and they can make their own from there
Curious how the zodiac lenses relate? The free zodiac systems comparison lays your chart out across five systems in one table.
Accurate enough to argue with
