Major Chart Patterns
The Heliocentric Chart
The heliocentric or inner chart has been described by
those who have studied it as a chart of one’s inner or
more spiritual life, the chart of who one is beneath all
appearances. It has been called the Heart Essence
Chart, and also the Dharma Chart—as it is a map of
one’s deeper self. It is said to be the true chart of the
self you were before you took on a physical
personality—and it is even deeper than that personality.
Various heliocentric astrologers have described the
nature of the helio chart differently, but they all seem to
agree that the heliocentric chart is a map of our deepest
self, of who we are inside, and of who we will perhaps
become as we go through life's changes. The helio
chart is who we are when someone really gets to know
us.
