How the Star Map Works

The Star Map is a daily treasure map. It shows you where you stand today. The X on the map is your heart, and the treasure is whatever was hidden and is now seen. Some days what's hidden is painful. Some days it's a joy. Either way, both are gold, because seeing it is what frees you.

The Stages of the Map

Heart of the Day: the day's message in plain words, the one thing to carry with you. It brings together what the cosmos says and what the earth says.

Cosmic Day: the celestial energy of the day, read from the positions of the Sun, Moon and planets. We use classical astrology, and we read each sign together with its ally, a pairing of companion signs from our own work. We also follow the Moon through the 28 lunar mansions described by Agrippa in the 1500s, used for timing: when to act and when to hold back.

Earth Day: the energy of time, read from the traditional Maya day count, the 260-day calendar and the 365-day year, kept by the Maya for well over two thousand years. We use the traditional count (the GMT correlation), not the modern Dreamspell version.

Where You Stand Today: the body, read through the seven chakras. We read them as pairs, two ends of one stick, with the heart as the point where they meet. This is your "you are here."

Sky Watch: the mood of the day, taken from NOAA's space weather forecast. Solar storms and geomagnetic activity can leave people restless or running hot.

Today's Hunt: a short story that walks you through the day's clues: one from the cosmos, one from the earth, and one from the people around you.

Captain's Log: an evening question that brings you back to the morning's clue, so you can see what you found.

Our Promise

We pull fresh data every morning. We point out what lines up, and we're just as honest about what doesn't. We never force an alignment. If the reading moves you in a healthy direction, it has done its job.
