To the right is an example of an astrological chart. It is a map of the sky, and planetary placements, at an exact moment in time from a set location. To determine a chart, you need the date, time and exact location.
The chart at the time of your birth is called your natal chart. Your natal chart will never change, but the astrology of the moment is always changing, and therefor activating parts of your chart at different times all the time.
The very middle horizontal line is the horizon, and everything above that line is visible above the horizon, while everything below that line is invisible from the vantage point of your chart location.

Each pie slice that makes up the circle of a chart is called a house, and each house represents a different category of life. These are the where of a chart.
The first house, which is also called the rising sign, is the constellation of the zodiac sign that was coming up over the horizon at the time of the charts delineation.
Example 1: The chart to the right has Gemini on the first house. The following houses will then be ruled by the following zodiac signs in their natural order - 2nd house ruled by Cancer, 3rd house ruled by Leo, 4th house ruled by Virgo, etc. all the way around all 12 houses.
– Identify which sign is on your first house. This is your rising sign (also known as the ascendant).
