About Star Based Astrology
My astrological practice is neither Eastern Sidereal nor Western Tropical. What I use is called Star Based astrology. Others in the field call it True Sidereal. While the Eastern Sidereal method is more accurate than the Western Tropic, neither are truly accurate compared with Star Based Astrology which utilizes the actual, astronomically factual, solar zodiac.
Neither Tropic nor Sidereal methods recognize certain very important astronomical facts such as:
- There are thirteen constellations on the solar ecliptic* not twelve. The 10th constellation, between the Scorpion and the Archer is Ophiuchus, the Serpent Handler. This is the Real Solar Zodiac, also known as the Star Based Zodiac.
- The 12 signs of Tropic and Sidereal astrology are all the same size, each of them are 30 degrees of the zodiac, giving the impression that the Solar transit is 30 days in each sign. This is a fantasy. Constellations don’t have the same length. For example, the Sun moves through the Scorpion in only 7 days while it moves through the Virgin in 45 days.
- The ecliptic (and the sun) neatly miss the constellation Cetus, but the planets, Moon and asteroids – because their orbits are not exactly on the same plane as the Earth’s – can wander from the ecliptic and transit Cetus. A similar situation can arise when the planets, moon or asteroids are close to the border between the constellations Taurus and Gemini. If they are more than half a degree south of the ecliptic, they can slip down into the constellation Orion. That gives us 15 constellations that can be active in your Starry Blueprint (Natal Chart).
- For ages the first sign of the zodiac has been indicated by the Spring Equinox (March 20). At the time of the Spring Equinox the Sun is transiting the Fishes, therefore the first constellation of the zodiac isn’t the Ram, it is the Fishes. It was in the Ram a couple thousand years ago, but the alignment between the Earth and the Stars changes and now the Spring Equinox occurs while the Sun transits the Fishes constellation. This is why we are in “the Age of Pisces (Fishes). We will be in the Age of Aquarius (The Waterbearer) when the Spring Equinox occurs in the Waterbearer constellation in the year 2600.
- The Sun does not start transiting the Ram on the 21st of March, it starts on the 19th of April.
- In fact all the “Tropical signs” are now shifted by almost one whole sign in comparison with astronomical reality.
While you may feel that your Tropic or Sidereal chart is pretty accurate, you’ll be convinced of how much more relevant and useful your Star Based Chart is. Not only does it reflect your personality traits accurately, it reveals your Soul Path in this life, and your Spiritual Purpose. Other forms of astrology may claim to do that as well, but they literally can’t because they are not using the actual stars of the ecliptic*. In addition to these stars I also look at alignments with other major stars in the galaxy as well as the Galactic Center and the Super Galactic Center for a deep sense of the Galactic Origin of your Spiritual Purposes.
We live in an evolutionary time and people all over the world are awakening from the Piscean mindset that so often substituted illusion for reality. People today want to know our real position in relation to the Sun, the Moon, the Planets and Stars and are ready to move on to a truly Star Based system. I understand why astrologers are so deeply invested and attached to the old story, but they must free themselves from their history and become the Star Readers they are designed to be. I believe that we can no longer tolerate a zodiacal map that is grievously incorrect. I predict that in the near future we will see a mass awakening to and use of the Real or Star Based Zodiac, if for no other reason than an ever increasing number of people now have astronomical apps on their devices. We can all see with our own eyes that what Tropic Astrologers are telling us is not true.
I prefer the fresh, organic, raw and natural starscape to the artificial “sign” zodiac. I view systems other than Star Based Astrology as a form of mesmerism — designed to convince people that astrologers are reading your destiny in the stars when in fact the Stars are not even included in your chart. We simply have to look at the stars as the true compass. In this age of disinformation and confusion we must keep this banner of correct orientation held high.
Many astrologers argue for the old thoughtforms they use. All I can say to them is that I’ve learned what “Organic” means and how to apply it not only to the foods I eat but to the thought forms I allow to occupy my Mind.
Aside from casting and reading charts I also love to teach others about Star Based Astrology. One of my missions in life is to restore integrity to Astrology by re-grafting it to the original Astronomical Root it came from. This is the only move that makes sense for Astrology in today’s Space Age World. Please contact me for a Star Based Chart or a class in Star Based Astrology.

*The solar ecliptic is the apparent annual path of the sun in the heavens, along which are located the 13 major constellations of the zodiac.
