The return Ascendant
The sign rising in your solar return chart is the headline of the year — the posture you will take and the lens the months are seen through.

Solar Returnthe chart of your year ahead.
A solar return chart is cast for the exact moment the Sun comes back to its birth position each year — your astrological birthday. Luxtra computes it and reads its rising sign as the theme of the year: a Solar Return Ascendant in a new element can turn a whole year toward reinvention.

Every birthday, the Sun returns to the exact degree it held when you were born — and the sky around it draws the chart of your year. Luxtra casts it the moment it happens. One word rises to the top. The rest of the year explains it.
What it reveals
The substance of your reading.
What the return chart sets for the twelve months ahead.
II
The Sun’s house
Where the Sun lands in the return chart shows the room of life that gets the spotlight — work, love, home, or the inner world.
III
The Moon’s sign
The return Moon colours the emotional season — what you will need more of, and where your attention keeps drifting all year.
From a sample reading
A year of reinvention
Your solar return Ascendant has changed element this year, and that is rarer and louder than it sounds — it tilts the whole twelve months toward becoming someone slightly new. Expect to outgrow a version of yourself you were attached to. The Sun’s house tells you where it happens. The only wrong move is to spend the year defending who you were.

Frequently asked
Solar Return, in plain answers.
What is a solar return chart?
A solar return chart is cast for the exact moment each year when the transiting Sun returns to the precise degree it occupied at your birth — roughly your birthday. It is read as a forecast for the year that follows.
Does my location matter for a solar return?
Yes. The solar return chart is sensitive to where you are at the moment of return, which is why some astrologers travel for it. Luxtra lets you compute the chart for your home or for a chosen location.
How is it different from transits?
Transits track the planets continuously against your natal chart; a solar return is a single snapshot for the year, read as a standalone chart. They work best together — the snapshot and the running weather.
