A birth chart is the snapshot of the planetary positions, lunar mansions (Nakshatras) placements, and other celestial objects (relative to your place of birth) at the time of your birth. An astrologer uses your birth chart to help solve problems related to different areas of your life. This is also called a 'horoscope'.
