Step 1: Gather Your Birth Details
Before you can begin creating your Personal Seasons Calendar, you'll need to collect a few essential details that act as the foundation for your chart. Think of this as gathering the coordinates for your internal compass.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Your full name
City, state, and country of birth
Date of birth (formatted as MM/DD/YYYY)
Exact time of birth (hour, minute, and AM/PM)
These specifics allow the Charting Your Course system to align your personal energy with the natural rhythms of the seasons. If you’re not sure of your exact birth time, don’t worry—there’s a helpful resource linked below to guide you through alternate options.
Once you’ve got all your info gathered, return to the next video where we’ll walk you through how to use it to generate your chart.
Step 2: Generate Your Natal Chart
Now that you’ve gathered your birth details, it’s time to create your natal chart. This is the only step in the Charting Your Course system that requires astrology—and don’t worry, you don’t need to understand all the symbols or terminology. We’re simply using the chart to access a few key details that will help personalize your calendar.
To get started, visit astro-charts.com. You’ll need to:
Create a free account
Enter your birth information
Generate your chart
Once the chart appears, you’ll see a wheel filled with lines, symbols, and placements—it may look complex, but we’re only interested in one specific detail at the bottom. Be sure to save your chart so you can access it again. Once saved, go to your dashboard, open your chart, and then scroll all the way to the bottom to locate the information we’ll use next.
Step 3: Calculate Your Seasonal Shifts
With your natal chart in hand, you're now ready to create your Personal Seasons Calendar—the heart of the Charting Your Course system. This calendar reflects the unique rhythm of your inner seasons and reveals when you naturally shift into Spring (emergence), Summer (experimentation), Autumn (clarification and refinement), and Winter (manifestation) each year.
To do this, you'll use the Personal Seasons Calculator—you’ll find the link just above the next video.
Here’s how it works:
Look at the House Table from your astro-charts.com dashboard.
For each house (1 through 12), note the degree and sign it starts in.
Enter those into the calculator using the dropdown menu for the sign and the number field for degrees.
As you enter your data, the calculator will generate seasonal transition dates each year—your personal markers for when your energy shifts. These dates are the foundation of your Personal Seasons Calendar.
Once you’ve completed your chart, you’ll see your full annual cycle laid out. In the next video, we’ll walk through what these dates actually mean and how to start working with them in your life and business.
Step 4: Getting To Know Your Personal Seasons
Now that your seasonal dates are calculated, it’s time to give them meaning by transferring them into your Personal Seasons Workbook. While the calculator labeled each section using astrology’s house system, we’re now going to translate that into something much simpler and more intuitive: early, mid, and late phases of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
Here’s how to do it:
Look at the dates you generated from the calculator.
Transfer them into the corresponding spaces in your workbook under each seasonal phase: early, mid, and late.
Use the color-coded key to keep track of your current season:🌱 Green = Spring🌊 Blue = Summer🍂 Orange = Autumn❄️ Gray = Winter
Once you’ve copied your dates, locate where you are right now in your personal cycle by finding today’s date in relation to your seasonal transitions. Are you just entering a new phase or about to complete one?
Understanding where you are helps you work with your energy, and takes out the guesswork—and that’s where the magic begins. Up next, we’ll talk about how to use this information in your daily life and work.
Step 5: Take Aligned Action with Your Seasonal Energy
Congratulations—you’ve just created your Personal Seasons Calendar! This is your energetic itinerary for the year, a guide that honors your unique rhythms and helps you move through life with greater ease, clarity, and purpose.
On the final page of your workbook, you’ll find a set of contemplation questions tailored to each phase of your seasonal cycle. These aren’t just one-time prompts—they’re invitations to return to again and again throughout your current season.
For example, if you’re in late summer, one question to sit with is:“What is most purposeful for me?”
You can use these questions for journaling, meditation, or reflection—especially when you're feeling stuck or uncertain. They serve as gentle anchors, reconnecting you with the wisdom of your current season.
You’ll also find a space for inspiration statements—starting with the phrase: “I just want to…” Let that statement lead you. Let it reveal what’s calling to be expressed, embodied, or shared.
You’re now equipped to chart your course—not just through tasks and goals, but through your own timing, intuition, and inner truth. And this is only the beginning.
In the final video, we’ll wrap up and talk about your next steps.
