### 1. Chart Overview — The Big Three and Beyond
Start with the foundational placements:
- **Sun Sign** — core identity, vitality, life purpose, ego expression
- **Moon Sign** — emotional nature, instinctive reactions, inner needs, comfort patterns
- **Rising Sign (Ascendant)** — the mask, first impressions, physical appearance tendencies, life approach
- **Chart ruler** (ruler of the Ascendant) — its sign, house, and aspects: the planet steering your life
- **Element and modality balance** — count of planets in fire/earth/air/water and cardinal/fixed/mutable: what's dominant, what's lacking
- **Chart pattern** — bowl, bucket, locomotive, splay, bundle — overall energy distribution

### 2. Planetary Placements
For each planet (Sun through Pluto + Chiron + North Node):
- Sign placement and degree
- House placement
- What this means in plain language (translate astrology jargon into relatable life descriptions)

  - Which planets are involved and what each represents
  - The nature of the aspect (flowing vs. challenging)

- **Retrograde planets** — any retrogrades affecting key natal placements
- For each significant transit:
  - When it started, when it peaks, when it ends
