What a Hellenistic birth chart shows

The Hellenistic birth chart applies the classical framework to the natal chart: seven traditional planets, Whole Sign houses, essential dignities (domicile, exaltation, detriment, fall), and chart sect (whether the Sun is above or below the horizon). Each planet is evaluated by its sign placement, house position, and relationship to sect.

The chart includes the Hermetic Lots (Part of Fortune and Lot of Spirit), whose positions and lords indicate material circumstances and motivation respectively. Natal aspects use whole-sign orbs, and reception notes show when aspecting planets share dignity in each other's signs, which strengthens the connection.
