The baby birth chart reading

Thirty-five to forty-five pages written by hand, as a letter to the child and to the people who love them. A portrait of who they are before the world has had a chance to tell them otherwise, made to be read again on their first birthday, their tenth and their twenty-first.

What it includes

• Sun, Moon and AscendantWho this child is at their core, before the world has had a chance to tell them otherwise.
• The twelve housesEvery area of their life, from home and family to purpose and calling.
• Major and minor aspectsThe energies shaping their character and the subtle gifts most readings miss.
• Karma and soul missionWhat this soul carries into this lifetime and what it came here to fulfil.
• North NodeTheir life direction and their deepest calling.
• ChironTheir wound and the extraordinary gift hidden inside it.
• Love and relating styleHow this child will give and receive love throughout their life.
• Gifts and talentsWhere their chart shines most brightly.
• Key life themesThe recurring patterns woven into their journey.
• A final personal messageWritten directly to the child and to the people who love them.

Who it is for

For someone who has just had a baby and wants to understand who has arrived. It is also ordered a fair amount as a new-baby gift.

It is written to be read now and returned to in a few years, when some of what it says begins to show.

What I need from you

Date, time and place of birth. With a recent birth the time is usually recorded to the minute, which makes this one of the readings that can be done most precisely.

How it is written

With particular care. A baby's chart is not read like an adult's: there is no history behind it so I write about tendencies and terrain, never about what this person is going to be.

I deliberately avoid anything that sounds like a label. A child does not need anything named for them ahead of time.

Delivery, format and guarantee

It arrives within three business days, as a PDF you can keep and print.

Full refund if you do not feel seen, no questions asked.

From my Etsy reviews

Does it work for an older child?

Yes. The reading is built for the early years but it works the same for a child of five or ten. Tell me the age when you order and I will adjust the focus.

Does it predict what they will be like as an adult?

No and be wary of anyone who says it does. A chart describes terrain and tendencies, not a destiny. What it can do is help you see the person in front of you rather than the one you were expecting.

Can it be given as a gift?

Yes, it is one of the most gifted. I need the baby's birth details. If you want it to arrive on a particular date, tell me when you order.
