You were never
meant
to walk
this alone.

Every chart begins at a horizon: the sign rising in the east at the minute you were born. The planets keep moving overhead. Star & Root reads both and shows you the map your stars describe, with dates, so you can make empowered decisions. We walk it with you.

Vedic astrology through the Systems’ Approach. Calculated from the actual sky, checked before it reaches you.

Look up. The sky is moving.

The planets are always somewhere, and where they are changes the terrain you walk. Coming up: On November 25, Rahu moves into Capricorn and Ketu into Cancer. Which part of your life that touches depends on your rising sign. The monthly readings map exactly that: what is passing overhead, what it crosses in your life, and the dates to mark.

Look down. This is what you’re rooted in.

Your birth chart does not move. It was written at the minute you arrived: nine planets across the twelve areas of your life, the ones that carry you and the ones that ask more of you, and the long seasons your years move through. You can feel a season long before anyone names it. The Life Chart names it, shows you where you stand in it, and when it turns.

How a reading is made.

No mystery in the process. The mystery is in the sky, where it belongs. The method

  1. 1

    Calculated

    Your birth minute and place, set against the actual sky. Positions from the Swiss Ephemeris, precise tables of where each planet sits, read on the sidereal zodiac.

  2. 2

    Classified

    Each planet’s role for your rising sign, fixed by the codified rules of the Systems’ Approach.

  3. 3

    Written

    The reading is written in plain language around those facts. The words cannot move a placement, a date or a remedy.

  4. 4

    Verified

    Every placement, date and remedy is verified against the calculation.

  5. 5

    Reviewed

    Every reading is audited for accuracy, salience, and insights by an auditor before it is sent.

Foreknowledge is not fate. It is the difference between a navigator and a passenger.
