Chart Synthesis - A method of Chart Interpretation

When it is considered that interpreting a birth chart involves combining the individual meanings of, at a minimum, the ten planets and the five major aspects they make to each other, the twelve signs and the corresponding twelve houses and several other key points, such as the so called four angles of the chart comprising the Ascendant (Asc) or Rising sign and its opposite point the Descendant (Dsc) and the Midheaven (MC) and its opposite point the Immum coeli (IC), plus the North and South nodes of the Moon and the planetoid Chiron, the need for a method of synthesising all these elements is readily apparent.

Can You Transcend Your Cart?

My first response to this question is to ask why would you want to? It's not as if the chart limits us in any way. The chart is simply a map that can be used to guide our growth into that which we are ‘meant to’ become, just as all forms of life evolve in the way that is intrinsically right for them, whether that manifests as an acorn developing into a fully grown oak tree, a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, or a newborn child realizing its destiny to become an astrologer or a buddha - an awakened one, whatever the case maybe.
