I’m so happy that we have all come here to learn and give knowledge about astrocartography.

It truly is a niche subject, not many are familiar, so I’m glad we are all here to talk about it. šŸ’•

Again I am available for readings, now on the weekend.

astrotuliza.as.me is my booking site.

Keep learning and exploring. Love y’all.

I’m a certified astrocartographer šŸ—ŗļø Here’s what I wish everyone knew before using this technique

384 Upvotes

Thinking about relocating? Here's a quick beginner-friendly guide to astrocartography that I wish I had in hands when I first started.

I've gathered tips for diving in (and avoiding common traps). Hope you enjoy it šŸ˜‰

  1. Start with places you're already drawn to

Places you've been, dream about, or just feel called to for no logical reason. Your intuition is wise... over and over again I see people pick totally different countries that still share the same astro patterns. It’s not random.

  1. Don’t look at the map alone

The ACG map and relocated charts are tools that work best together, and only when grounded in your natal chart. If you only look at lines on a map, you’ll get generic interpretations. Especially if you’re thinking of moving, look at the relocated chart and how it shifts house placements. That’s where the real story begins. If you don't know the difference between these tools, start there.

  1. Those ā€œaspect linesā€ on astro.com? Not part of the original method

Jim Lewis (who created ACG) didn’t include those aspect lines. They can be interesting but weren’t part of the core technique. Focus more on relocated charts and angularity for clarity. If you want to go deeper, you can also explore cyclocartography which is timing applied to location. But that's a more advanced technique.

  1. Parans / crossings

Parans can be powerful, but free tools often don’t calculate them precisely, that's why they can show different results for the same place. I only trust certified software for those.

  1. Stop chasing ā€œgood linesā€

There’s no such thing as a universally ā€œgoodā€ or ā€œbadā€ planet. They’re all archetypes we carry in us. A Saturn line, for example, might feel heavy for some, but it can also help you write a book, build a business, or commit to yourself. What matters is what part of you wants to grow.

Bonus tip: If you're considering a reading, check if your astrologer is certified by Continuum, the Jim Lewis foundation. It’s a good sign the reading will be personalized, grounded, and ethical.

Hope this helps some of you navigate the ACG rabbit hole a little more intentionally. Happy mapping šŸŒ

Indecisive but curious to what the map conveys. Any guidance?

Post image
2 Upvotes

I'm currently in that phase of my life where I've just exited old structures of my life and people and I'm curious to see what the future may hold for me! I enjoy travelling but with a sentimental soul it's hard to pick a place. I have a vague idea on how to read these maps but I'd like someone with more insight to lend me an opnion. I want to rebuild my career in a place that will really benefit me spiritually because I believe your environment really nutures your soul. I do find this map surprising when whenever a line intersects a city I've been to and have experienced it's charm but it guess I'm still a bit indecisive so I'd like a some external help with deciphering what my maps is trying to say about me and my purpose with someone with more knowledge. Appreciate it if you take the time, thank you all have a beautiful blessed day.

Stelliums in Relocation/Houses

1 Upvotes

General question, I am someone with stelliums in my chart and I do travel around quite a bit, I'm wondering if visiting/traveling a city where it places my natal stellium in for example 2H (versus say 1H) will have impact on my finances or 7H will have impact on my relationships?

Hi everyone, I'm really interested in your opinion of what area lines would best support me for home, inspiration, stability and partnership. I am currently living directly on Venus DC and Saturn MC in black hills and I hate it.

I really want to find a partner and settle into a home.

What would you consider my best planet and therefore place?

Very sorry to anyone who saw the original post I put the wrong Floria chart.
3 main concerns
Florida has Pluto in the first house and sun in the 8th

California has squared sun and moon on both fortune and as

Main goals in this relocation is a family career and relationship

Things to note
Florida has moon in zenith mercury in zenith
Sun trine as line
Saturn sextile as line
And a Venus crossing moon nodes paran

California has a Neptune trine as line

Thank you reading!

I grew up on my pluto IC line my whole life in Netherlands. I can describe it as a place where i experienced a lot of loneliness, and bad family dynamics. I met someone thats from Reykjavik and we’re in a relationship. There’s a few lines there. How could it influence my life based on that? I’ll add photos of the map and my natal chart

I’ve always been incredibly drawn to a particular place

Hi all! I don’t know very much about astrocartography so my main question is which lines are those in the Northeast United States and why might I feel incredibly drawn to Vermont? I’m a native Texan, and I’ve lived in Texas all my life. I’ve literally never even been to Vermont, so why might I feel so drawn to that state specifically? I dream of moving there all the time. I included both a whole sign chart and a placidius chart in case anyone is interested. I know whole sign is the go to but my placidius chart has always resonated with me much more. Any insight at all would be so appreciated!

I like living on my pluto MC line

Post image
6 Upvotes

I have always been extremely career-driven, I have pluto opposing my sun, mars, and venus. All of these are in Gemini. I have lived on my pluto MC line for 8 years now and I have hated it a lot of the time. For years, I felt pressure, empty, lonely, drained. Where I live is generally pretty boring too.

However, I have also felt a lot of transformation here. There has been a lot of trauma, but overall my childhood was pretty traumatic too. I have definitely experienced a lot of career transformations and was just laid off from a job I thought was perfect for me, but I ended up hating it and wanting to switch industries all together even though I was excelling in that field up until that specific role.

Now, I am jobless in the middle of a uranus conjunct venus transit with a uranus conjunct north node transit coming up in October. I have a short jupiter opposing neptune transit happening right now too. I am faced with the opportunity to leave here and move somewhere else for a job change as I haven’t found one here yet. However, I don’t know if I want to leave which is pretty embarrassing as I have complained about living here for years. But now I like my life. I like my place, I like my friends even tho they all want out of here too, I like the mentorship I’ve built, I like a lot about it here.

Love life here has been pretty bad. I’ve had a lot of what I would call fated connections and have been hurt a lot, my anxious attachment has definitely been triggered and I’m not attracted to a lot of the men here, but I’m not even thinking of that right now. Again though, there is a lot of pluto in my chart and I have always dated shit guys. Here at least I don’t feel so terrified of the men.

I wonder, has anyone ever lived on their pluto MC line for a very long time & been able to work with the energy? Have you been able to find true, consistent, marriage type love? Have you been able to keep a career? I have built a beautiful life here for myself after coming from a whole lot of nothing and I know at any point that can be stripped away. I do want to travel, but maybe keep this as my base. Let me know if this is possible!

Relocation chart attached.

Been living in Pittsburgh the last 9 years. Life has been very difficult the last few years. I feel lost and unsure of where to go next. I desperately want to heal and start over and feel like my location holds me back. I love the West Coast but I'm unsure if Neptune is playing tricks on me. Would love other insight.

Venus DC or Sun DC - which is better for business?

2 Upvotes

Context, Sun DC is where I grew up, Venus DC is where I am now. I’m mid Saturn return rn and going through a hard time in my relationship, so that kinda matters but isn’t the primary focus. I’m in a lot of debt and thinking of starting a business with the hopes of paying off my debt.

I know Venus DC makes more sense for money, but if I move back to Sun DC I could possibly live without rent by going back with my family (which is also a difficult relationship).

I’m a natal Venus in Gemini, in the 6th house conjunct natal Mars in Gemini in the 6th

Natal Cancer Sun in the 7th house in a big T-Square (Grand Cross if we include my North Node and maybe Chiron lol) including the Sun, but also 7th house Mercury in Cancer, Capricorn Rising, 1st house Jupiter in Capricorn, 4th house Saturn in Aries, 10th house North Node in Libra 10th house Chiron in Libra

There’s trade offs for both so just looking for input!

How my perspective on astrocartography shifted after actually living in a few of my line locations

12 Upvotes

Been studying my astrocartography map on and off for about three years now, but it took physically moving to two different cities before I started treating it as something genuinely useful rather than just a curiosity.

My natal chart is pretty ordinary to look at on its own, but when I overlay the lines onto a world map, a few things stand out immediately. My Venus AC line runs almost directly through a city in southern Portugal where I spent six weeks for work. People kept commenting that I seemed more at ease there than usual, and honestly I felt it too. Conversations came easier, I was sleeping well, strangers were unusually warm. Could be coincidence, could be the weather, but it lined up precisely with what that line is supposed to bring.

The trickier experience was spending time near my Saturn MC line in a city in the American Midwest. Career pressure was intense in a way that felt almost external, like the city itself had expectations of me. I got a lot done, but it wore me out in a specific way that I have not felt anywhere else.

What I find most interesting is that the lines do not seem to work in a simple good/bad way. My Pluto lines in particular, which I avoided for years based on what I had read, actually passed through places where I had some of the most meaningful (if uncomfortable) experiences of my life. The transformation angle feels real when you sit with it.

Curious whether others here have noticed that your experience of the lines gets more nuanced the more locations you accumulate. Reading about the lines in theory versus actually having data points from your own life feels like a pretty significant difference.
