Maphrodite plans trips around your birth chart. It draws your planetary lines across a high-precision world map, then works out where they land and when to be there. PLAN THE TRIP Journey turns a list of cities into a dated itinerary. For each city it finds the planetary line running nearest, then scans the months ahead for the transits that activate it — so every stop gets dates, not just a pin, and the card tells you which transit chose them. Don't like a date? Each stop carries the other favorable windows found for it, and you can move the stay onto one. Then take the trip with you: send it to your calendar, export a printed itinerary, or share the timeline as an image. READ THE MAP Zoom into any city to see which of your lines run through it — Midheaven, Nadir, Ascendant and Descendant — and how far each one sits from you. Power Place: a location drawn from the day's transits, with the planetary hours that go with it. Modes: filter the map for travel, relocation, love, work, family or pets. TRAVEL TOGETHER Overlay a second birth chart and see where both people's lines run close — for when the trip has to suit two of you. WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM Positions are computed with the Swiss Ephemeris from your birth date, time and place. Every line, distance and date on the screen is calculated from that chart. Download Maphrodite and plan the trip your chart has been pointing at. The official digital companion to Astrocartography (DK Publishing, 2025) by Clarisse Monahan.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Soho House at Free against Maphrodite's $29.99. Soho House also leads on ratings volume (19K vs 8) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). Maphrodite's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 48%) and chart position (#161 vs unranked). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Soho House holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Soho House has 19K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Soho House's written reviews are positive against 67% of Maphrodite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Soho House ships an update weekly, Maphrodite every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
