Composite Chart Preview

Midpoint method · Free & unlimited

A composite chart isn't either person's chart — it's the midpoint chart of the relationship itself. Enter both sets of birth details for the composite Sun, Moon and personal planets, calculated from live ephemeris positions.

How to Calculate a Composite Chart

Create the midpoint composite chart for a relationship.

  1. 1. Enter the first person's birth date, time, and place
  2. 2. Enter the second person's birth details
  3. 3. See the composite Sun, Moon and personal planets — plus the composite Ascendant when both birth times are exact

FAQ

What is a composite chart?

A composite chart is built from the midpoints between two people's planets. Rather than describing either person, it describes the relationship as its own entity — what the pairing is for, how it feels from inside, and what it tends to produce.

What's the difference between a composite chart and synastry?

Synastry compares two charts to each other — how your planets touch theirs. A composite merges the two into a single third chart. Most astrologers use both: synastry for the dynamic between two people, composite for the character of the relationship itself.

Why can't I see composite houses?

Composite houses depend on the composite Ascendant, which is derived from both people's Ascendants — and those need exact birth times. When both times are present this tool shows the composite Ascendant; when they aren't, it shows planets only rather than inventing an angle.

Which composite method does this use?

The midpoint method — the circular midpoint of each planetary pair. It's the most widely used approach. The alternative, the Davison relationship chart, uses the midpoint in time and space instead and produces a genuinely different chart.
