Hello Sun is a self-discovery app that takes your birth chart as seriously as you do. Your chart is so much more than your sun sign. Every planet, every placement, every aspect is a layer of the real you, and Hello Sun reads all of it: your full natal chart, compatibility, astrocartography, and forecasts built on your actual placements. All in plain language, specific to you, never written for everyone born in your month. Whether you have studied astrology for years or are just starting to go deeper, this is the app that finally does your chart justice. WHAT'S FREE FOREVER A lot of astrology apps gate the basics. Hello Sun does it differently. From the moment you sign up, you get: · Your full birth chart, every placement explained in plain language · A daily reading of your mood, your presence, and what to notice today · Every astrology lesson, free now and always · Compatibility with the people in your life, from the ones who matter most to the ones you're just curious about · Your astrocartography, where in the world you come most alive · Three questions a day for the stars, by voice or text This isn't a trial. It's the free version. WHAT'S WAITING FOR YOU YOUR CHART, DECODED Every placement explained so it actually clicks. Your Mercury, Venus, Mars and beyond, described in real language about real patterns. Specific to you, not written for everyone born in your month. PERSONALIZED FORECASTS A daily reading that's truly yours, with deeper weekly, monthly, and yearly readings when you're ready to go further. What's happening in the sky, and what it means for your life and your decisions. ASK YOUR CHART, OUT LOUD Something on your mind? Ask your chart directly, by voice or by text, and get a real answer rooted in your placements. Speak your question and hear the answer back, like having a wise friend on call who actually knows you. FRIENDS AND COMPATIBILITY Ever wonder why you click with some people instantly and clash with others no matter what you do? Hello Sun puts your charts side by side and shows you exactly why. The friendships that feel like home, the romantic connections that run deep, the dynamics that have always confused you. Real synastry, in language that actually makes sense. WHERE YOU BELONG IN THE WORLD Your chart doesn't just tell you who you are. It tells you where you come alive. Some places call to certain people for a reason. Explore where in the world you feel most at home, for love, for work, or for showing up as yourself. YOUR USER MANUAL This is the guide you were never given. How you process emotions, make decisions, recharge, and show up for the people you love. Hello Sun breaks down your patterns in a way that is so specific it will make you laugh, cry, and text it to your best friend all at once. Not a personality type. Not a quiz result. Just you, decoded. LEARN AS YOU GO Go from curious to fluent. Every lesson is free, now and always. Bite-sized, starting with your own chart so everything you learn feels personal from day one. GOING DEEPER WITH PREMIUM When you're ready to go further, Hello Sun Premium unlocks deeper readings, your full week-month-year ahead, unlimited Q&A by voice or text, and unlimited compatibility with fellow Sunnies. $9.99/month or $99/year, with a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime. Know yourself. Understand each other. Astrology that actually makes sense. Support: support@hellosun.me Privacy Policy: hellosun.space/privacy Terms of Service: hellosun.space/terms
Lightcode Astrology Calendar
Read full descriptionHide full description
Lightcode Astrology is a calendar of the sky. It lists every transit of the day with its exact time, lays out the week and the month ahead, and draws a live wheel of the sky - all calculated on your iPhone by our own astronomical engine. AN ENGINE BUILT ON NASA/JPL DATA Every planetary position, aspect, sign change, station, Moon phase and house cusp is computed on the iPhone from NASA/JPL's DE440 planetary ephemeris (1900 to 2100), with Chiron from JPL Horizons and the IAU precession-nutation and sidereal-time models. There is no server and no account: the app works fully offline. TRANSITS TO YOUR NATAL CHART Enter your birth date, time and place once. The Day, Week and Month then show the moving planets' aspects to your own natal chart, each with an interpretation to reflect on. Or switch to transits to transits and follow the sky itself. DAY, WEEK, MONTH, CLOCK - Day: the day's transits in time order, with sign changes, stations and Moon phases, and the sky as it is now. - Week: every transit of the week ahead, day by day. - Month: the whole month of transits at a glance. - Clock: a live wheel of the sky with the houses for where you are. Travel into the past or the future, and open the Ephemeris table. NOTES AND REMINDERS Write a note on any day and set a reminder for it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your birth details, notes and location stay on your iPhone. No sign-in, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. FREE AND PREMIUM Free: the Day's list of transits between the planets, notes and reminders, and the living sky. Lightcode Astrology Premium unlocks transits to your natal chart, all the interpretations, and the Week, Month and Clock tabs. Lightcode Astrology Premium: $6.99 per month or $39.99 per year (US prices; the App Store shows the price in your currency before you buy), each with a one-week free trial for new subscribers. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when the free week ends (or at purchase, without a trial). The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your iPhone's Settings > your name > Subscriptions.
