Astrocartography and Relocation
Twenty guides cover the map method, four angular line families, ten body line families, nodes, relocation charts, Local Space, and parans. Scope is explicit.
Overview
Planetary longitudes remain tied to the instant while local angles and houses are recalculated for Los Angeles. This is the worked result for Astrocartography and Relocation; it remains conditional and does not turn geometry or timing into a verdict. The comparison method is explicit: Preserve the natal instant, verify coordinates and projection, keep planet and angle labels paired, and compare every candidate place with a relocation chart and practical facts.

Definition and exact scope
Twenty guides cover the map method, four angular line families, ten body line families, nodes, relocation charts, Local Space, and parans.
Calculation or decision rule
Preserve the natal instant, verify coordinates and projection, keep planet and angle labels paired, and compare every candidate place with a relocation chart and practical facts. The receipt retains the chosen input record, reference frame, tolerance, and version, then identifies the first step where an independent recalculation diverges.
Worked case and illustrative near miss
one UTC birth instant; origin 40.7128°N, 74.0060°W; destination 34.0522°N, 118.2437°W. planetary longitudes remain tied to the instant while local angles and houses are recalculated for Los Angeles.
Illustrative near miss; does not qualify: Changing the birth instant or timezone together with location and describing the result as relocation alone.
School, model, and context variants
OpenFate explicitly supports relocation charts; the other map techniques are knowledge-only and cannot replace legal, financial, health, safety, or housing research.
Product, safety, and verification boundary
OpenFate provides the chart inputs used by Astrocartography and Relocation, but claims no dedicated automated interpretation. Astrocartography and Relocation preserves contrary observations and uncertainty. It cannot replace consent, professional help, location research, or a person’s account.

OpenFate offers a free, temporary calculator for solar and lunar returns, planetary secondary progressions, solar arc and planetary-midpoint composites. Progressions and composites do not include houses or angles. These advanced results are not saved or added to reports or Orb; consult the method page for the exact supported conventions.
