Place is personal.

The same city can steady one person and unsettle another. Moving, travelling, or looking back, this is the map of that difference.

Reveal my map

Your local astro weather.

Your birth lines never move. The sky does. Every day the moving planets draw a second set of lines across the Earth, and ELA reads them for the place you are standing.

  • Conditions: what the sky is doing over your place right now, read against your chart.
  • Transit lines: which moving planets are touching your lines today, and how closely.
  • Timing: the lines heading toward your city this week, so you can time a trip, a move or a decision before the shift arrives.

Cyclocartography (noun): a term coined by Jim Lewis, the creator of astrocartography, in 1982. A map of where the planets, as they move today, are crossing the angles of your birth chart anywhere on Earth. It answers when, where astrocartography answers where.

What people say once they see their map.

“This explains so much — the restlessness has been so disruptive all my life. I moved house nearly 40 times and lived in 4 countries, and always thought there was something wrong with me.”

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to know my exact birth time?

It matters: about 15 minutes of error can shift your angle lines roughly 200 miles. If your time is approximate, enter your best guess and ELA helps you narrow it down. Broad patterns (which regions, which themes) hold up even when city-level precision does not.

Is ELA Map free?

Yes. ELA Map is a free astrocartography calculator and map, no card required. A free account gets the full interactive globe: all ten planetary lines on all four angles, crossing lines, your Human Design overlay, and a daily reading for where you stand.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. ELA Map works on your phone and your computer, and everything stays in sync. The desktop gives the fullest map exploration, and Presentation Mode for practitioners lives there.

What is astrocartography?

Astrocartography maps your natal chart onto the Earth. Each planet draws lines across the globe where it was rising, setting, or culminating at the moment of your birth. Being close to those lines tends to colour your experience of that place.

How accurate is astrocartography?

The lines themselves are astronomy, not opinion: ELA Map computes them from JPL DE440, the same ephemeris data NASA uses. If a line is drawn through Lisbon, that is where it is. What a line means is interpretation: a lens for noticing patterns between your chart and places, not a machine that predicts events.

Are the interpretations written by AI?

The astrology and Human Design text is written by people and kept in a curated library. Software selects the entries that apply to your chart and place, and a light edit pass smooths them into one read. Nothing is invented by a chatbot.

How does astrocartography work?

At the moment you were born, every planet was rising somewhere on Earth, setting somewhere else, and directly overhead along one line of longitude. Recompute your chart for every point on the globe and those positions join up into lines: your Sun line, your Venus line, and so on. ELA Map does that computation for all ten planets and draws the result on the map, then adds a written reading for any line or city you tap.

Is astrocartography the same as relocation astrology?

They are cousins, both branches of locational astrology. Relocation astrology recasts your whole birth chart for one chosen city. Astrocartography draws every city at once, as lines. Cyclocartography adds time: transit lines showing where the planets moving today are crossing your chart across the Earth, which is how you time a trip or a move. ELA Map does all three, and Today reads the moving part for the place you are standing.

What makes ELA Map different from other astrocartography tools?

Most astrocartography tools draw your lines and stop. ELA Map is one workspace instead of six tabs: astrocartography, relocation heatmaps and Human Design on the same globe, for up to five charts at once, plus a daily reading for the place you are actually standing, not a sign-based horoscope. And the astronomy is real: every line is computed from the same ephemeris data NASA uses, which is why calculators that approximate disagree with each other and ELA does not.

What does ELA stand for?

Energy Location Atlas. An atlas was never just a picture of the world; it was the bound collection of everything a navigator needed. ELA Map is that for the relationship between you and place: astrocartography, Human Design, relocation heatmaps, daily readings and reports, organised around the map instead of the chart.
