What Is My Core Theme for the Next Year?
After your birthday, curiosity naturally arises: 'What kind of year will this be?' In astrology, a new Solar Return Chart is created each year on your birthday, and this chart reveals the year's core theme and energy direction. Stellog analyzes your Solar Return Chart to identify which aspects of your life become most important this year and what direction growth takes.
✨1. This Year's Core Theme Through Astrology
In the Solar Return Chart, the core theme is primarily read through the chart's 1st house rising sign, the Sun's house position, and emphasized planet and house placements. The sign rising on the 1st house determines how you approach the world and express yourself this year. The house containing the Sun reveals the life area receiving the most energy and attention this year. The house with concentrated planets is the most emphasized and active theme area of the year.
