Most people think they have to choose between tropical astrology and true sidereal astrology but in Ascended Astrology, both charts work together to reveal the multidimensional blueprint of your ascension journey.
Most people think they have to choose between tropical astrology and true sidereal astrology, as if astrology is suddenly the Presidential election and only one can win, with many astrology nerds and spiritual a**holes arguing which one is the lesser of two evils.
But in Ascended Astrology, both charts matter. They are not competing systems… just, simply, revealing different layers of your multi-dimensional blueprint.
The real question is not, “Which chart is right?”
The better question is, “What layer of my consciousness is each chart showing me?”
Because your FM (False Matrix) tropical chart and your AM (Ascended Matrix) true sidereal chart are not saying the same thing. They are speaking to different dimensions of your incarnation, your identity, your programming and, ultimately, your soul’s evolution.
This is where Ascended Astrology becomes different from traditional astrology. We are not just looking at your chart to tell you your personality traits, your red flags, your relationship patterns or why you keep attracting emotionally unavailable people with strong Scorpio (FM-8) placements (or is that just me?).
Anyway… We use astrology as an ascension tool. We are looking at the layers of your matrix, the code behind the avatar and the organic blueprint your soul came here to embody.
Your tropical chart shows one layer. Your true sidereal chart shows another. When you read them together, astrology becomes less about labeling yourself and more about decoding yourself.

Tropical Astrology Shows the False Matrix Blueprint
Tropical astrology is the system most people are familiar with. This is the Western astrology system based on the seasons, not the actual visible constellations in the sky. So when someone says, “I’m a Leo,” “I’m a Pisces,” or “I’m a Capricorn,” they are usually referring to their tropical Sun sign.
Now, this is where people start panicking when they discover true sidereal astrology when they suddenly realize their tropical/western sign may not match where the Sun actually was in the sky when they were born.
Suddenly the person who has spent their entire life identifying as a fiery Sagittarius (FM-9) finds out their Sun is actually in Scorpio (AM-8), and now they are standing in the spiritual identity crisis aisle wondering if their whole personality was a scam.
It was not a scam. Relax.
In Ascended Astrology, I do not see the tropical chart as useless or “wrong.” I see it as the False Matrix blueprint.
This chart reveals the identity structure you were born into inside this 3D reality, revealing the personality program, ego patterns, survival strategies and the version of self that was shaped by the false matrix reality around you.
This is why people still resonate deeply with their tropical chart. Of course you do! You have been living inside that program your whole life. Your tropical chart can describe the character you learned how to play in the false matrix.
That does not make it fake. It makes it a map of the 3D self that I call “The False Avatar”.
The tropical chart can show you the avatar you were handed but it doesn’t necessarily show you the full truth of who you are beneath the programming. It reveals what you’ve been working through in this false matrix reality. It shows the patterns you are here to become conscious of, alchemize and eventually stop mistaking for your true identity.
In other words, your tropical chart is not the enemy. It is just not the whole story.

True Sidereal Astrology Reveals the Ascended Matrix Blueprint
True sidereal (as well as true sky) astrology is based on the actual placement of the planets in relation to the visible constellations in the sky. This means your true sidereal chart (also known as The Ascended Matrix Chart) may look very different from your tropical chart.
Some signs may shift, some placements may suddenly make way more sense and yes, Ophiuchus may enter the conversation, which is always fun because nothing says “spiritual awakening” like finding out there is a whole thirteenth sign that mainstream astrology “conveniently” left out.
In Ascended Astrology, the true sidereal chart reveals what I call the “Ascended Matrix Blueprint”. This is the 5D (and beyond) star-based layer of your chart and it shows a deeper soul frequency, cosmic pattern and energetic architecture that exists beyond the seasonal zodiac used in tropical astrology.
Where the tropical chart shows the false program… the true sidereal chart reveals the organic star code.
Your Ascended Matrix, true sidereal chart can show more crystalline medicine you came here to embody as it reveals holographic gifts, soul memories, spiritual missions and energetic patterns that cannot be fully activated in your 3D “false avatar”.
You will notice that your Ascended Matrix (AM) placements resonate more AFTER your awakening, if you’re consciously ascending and if you’ve gone through major matrix-disrupting transits like Uranus Opposition and Chyron return!
And yes, discovering your Ascended Matrix chart can feel confronting.
People don’t always love having their astrological identity rearranged…. I know I didn’t. I was VERY resistant to true sidereal astrology and alternative Moon theories. It took me years to accept all of this.
If you’ve built your entire personality around being a tropical Libra (FM-7) and then your true sidereal chart comes in with Virgo (AM-6) energy, that can feel rude.
But the point is not to erase the version of you that resonated with your tropical chart. The point is to understand that you are layered. You are not losing yourself when you discover your true sidereal chart. You are seeing another dimension of yourself.
This is why true sidereal astrology can feel so activating. It does not just validate the self you already know… it activates the version of you that exists outside of the false matrix, in 5D and beyond!

Why Both Charts Matter
The biggest mistake people make is thinking one chart has to cancel out the other. That is such a 3D approach to a such a multi-dimensional science that is astrology.
It is the same kind of thinking that says something has to be either right or wrong, spiritual or practical, cosmic or human… when the truth is usually much more layered.
Your (FM) False Matrix, tropical chart matters because it shows the matrix program you incarnated into.
Your (AM) Ascended Matrix, true sidereal chart matters because it reveals a more ascended, organic matrix layer.
Together, these charts show the journey from 3D to 5D. Not because one chart is “low vibe” and the other chart is magically enlightened… this journey is about consciousness.
The False Matrix, tropical chart shows where you have been identified with the A.I., false light program while the Ascended Matrix, true sidereal chart shows a deeper layer of your soul’s architecture that becomes more accessible as you deprogram, heal and remember who the f**K you are beyond the false matrix zombie that the tried to program you to be.
This is why I do not believe in throwing away the FM tropical chart.
One chart shows the program. One chart shows the star code. Together, they show the path of ascension alchemy.

This Is the Shift From 3D to 5D
When I talk about moving from 3D to 5D, I’m not talking about pretending your human life doesn’t exist or you floating away from your responsibilities, being taken by the angels to a “better place” while your inbox, bank account, nervous system and relationship patterns are all screaming in the background.
That is not ascension. That is avoidance with better lighting. Yeah, I said it.
The 3D to 5D shift is a shift in consciousness. PERIOD.
It is the movement from unconscious identification to conscious embodiment, when you stop saying, “This is just who I am,” and start asking, “Is this truly me, or is this a program I learned how to survive through?”
That question alone can change everything.
Your (FM) False Matrix, tropical chart can show you the 3D identity you have been operating through. It can reveal the patterns you may have mistaken for your true self. While the (AM) Ascended Matrix, true sidereal chart shows the organic, photonic light imprints that radiate from the stars around us in all directions that DID imprint upon your 5D lightbody upon incarnation.
However, the density of the False Matrix, 3D frequencies coupled with our purposefully-deactivated DNA strand created a carbon-based vessel that was unable to hold the wattage capacity that is our soul’s lightbody as well as blanketing us in a dark magic spell of amnesia and mind control.
The False Matrix tropical zodiac is based on seasons, not actual constellations. It’s an illusion, an agreed upon construct that we are all co-creating for the False Matrix architects.
Because they can’t create reality. They are devoid of “the spark”.
And so… they need us. Badly. And they’ve been feeding off of our divine energy for thousands and thousands of years.
But those days are done.
The Great Shift and the ascension cycle cannot be stopped and as we shift, down to a DNA level, into a new dimensional field of awareness and existence, these 3D forces, laws and programs will not be a match to us any longer.
And although this process is underway, our free will plays a crucial role in the unfolding of this “Great Shift” in human and planetary consciousness.
And one way to be intentional is by mastering your False Matrix, tropical placements so you can harmonize their duality points and transmute the density they carry.
And then… you explore, with curiosity, your Ascended Matrix, true sidereal placements and you start to notice when those more “ascended” patterns and frequencies start showing up in you, and you say “YES” to them.
You lean in to your Ascended Matrix blueprint, which will cause a remembrance and resonance between your DNA and your soul’s light body, allowing your 3D, False Avatar to surrender to love and the crystalline power of your Ascended Avatar, which is the 5D (and beyond) version of you that exists NOW.
Not in some future reality. Not in some “New Earth” far, far away.
But now. Here.
It’s time to remember.
