Relocating

An Astrological relocation reading can give you some insight into whether a contemplated move is good for you. Your Astrological chart is based on the latitude and longitude in your place of birth at your birth time. When you move a significant distance, you may want to relocate your chart.

An interesting part of a move can be a chart based on the new location. How you relocate a chart is by changing the latitude and longitude of where you've relocated to and also by changing your birth time to correspond to the time in the new place.

Today, the reasons for a move are often financial. You may have a job offer or just feel you can't make the money you need where you live.

Family is another reason for a move. You may have a sick parent, which will bring added responsibility. College is often the fundamental first move away from your parents' home, and in that shift, you're taking action to create your own identity.

Once we move, we're inviting different energy, friends and cultural experiences. It requires organization -- dealing with your mail, turning off power, locating a van or moving company.

Letting go of the old, going with the new is a powerful process, but you may not completely move. You may continue to function in two places. In a move from the city to the country or vice versa, you may find you need some of both, and you work out a rhythm that incorporates the old as well as the new.

Moving to a new country means changing your whole culture. You need to learn to deal with different currency, language, customs, seasons, driving modes, and measurements. A whole lifestyle change like a major move has its own rating on the stress scale. Not surprising, considering how connected home is with identity.
