One of the things I love to do most is mentor clients to use Astrology to determine the most aligned offerings in their business. Because when our business is aligned with our (or its) natural energy we have more clarity and more ease and we can let go of all the shoulds like “I should write a book” or “I should create a membership” and instead take the path of least resistance (and most joy) in our business.
Using Astrology to determine the most aligned offerings – Should I use my business OR natal chart?
The answer depends.
If you are yet to create and launch a business and you are in the planning phases then absolutely use your natal chart to determine the offerings that are most aligned with your natural strengths and talents.
If you already have a business and you have an accurate date and time that it was born then you can use your business chart.
If you want to analyze the energy of the business as well as your natural energy then you can look at both to find the commonalities.
So, what do I look for in my astrology chart to find the most aligned offerings?
I mentor my Level 2 Business Astrology Certification students as well as my Mastermind students to look at certain houses for this information. We also cover this in detail in my Your Constellation of Offerings course.
In this blog, I’ll summarize what our natal or business chart can tell us about aligned business offerings.
The Astrological Houses and Aligned Business Offerings
Firstly all of the 12 houses could be interpreted in relation to business offerings, however, I have selected the ones that I think most apply to the modern online business and online entrepreneurs.
3RD HOUSE COMMUNICATIONS
Teaching, writing, or speaking professionally.
5TH HOUSE PRODUCTS
Creating physical products such as oils, candles, artwork, jewelry, etc
7TH HOUSE 1:1 WORK
1:1 work such as counseling, coaching, and healing.
9TH HOUSE PUBLISHING
Publishing books, decks, or other physical products
11TH HOUSE GROUP WORK & COMMUNITY
Group offerings such as memberships and group coaching programs
12TH HOUSE RETREATS
Hosting Retreats, creating meditations & intuitive readings
Find your busy houses
The next step is to look at the houses in your business and/or natal chart and see which have a cluster of supportive planets—ideally, three or more planets in one house.
Which planets are best?
The most supportive planets for determining business offerings are the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, or the North Node or Part of Fortune (both not actual planets).
You might also want to add some or all of the asteroid goddesses into your analysis, depending on the nature of your work.
The other planets may also be helpful, but it depends on their nature and combination. For example, Saturn with Mars and Venus could actually bring discipline and structure. Pluto with Mercury and the Sun could indicate transformational communications, whereas Neptune, Mercury, and the Moon could indicate intuitive work.
As always, astrology is about combining the house, planet, and sign meanings to interpret them.
What if the house relating to the work I want to do is empty?
If you notice that a particular house is empty, this doesn’t mean that you can’t offer the associated product or service – but it may mean that it’s not the path of least resistance for you or the business.
My case study
With the Part of Fortune in my business’s 7th house – booking astrology readings has come super easily to my business, but I don’t have planets in the 7th house natally so it’s not what I’d prefer to offer as my main source of income – it can be quite draining for me personally which Chiron and Neptune can indicate.
Mercury in the 9th house indicates the business of publishing books and decks, which is probably why gaining my publishing deal with Hay House came so easily to me.
Venus and Jupiter are in the 12th house, which explains my deep desire to run retreats through my business. I’ve done this on and off but have not yet managed to turn it into a regular income stream.
The 10th house planets indicate that being a public speaker is an aligned income stream. Again, it is something I have done but not extensively.
