Ethics of prediction is what you owe when you read. This page is what you owe when you forward. Reading for yourself is a different job than reading for someone else: yourself vs others.
A natal chart is built from a birth you did not live. A synastry grid includes a person who did not open the app. A screenshot in a group chat is a publication. Most people do not treat it that way. They should.
Default Rules
Your chart, your line, your hexagram. Share if you want. Say it is a metaphor if the room is mixed.
Someone else’s chart. Not without their ask. “I was curious” is not an ask. Birth data you were told for a party invite is not a license.
A relationship grid. Both people, or neither. If only you consented, you can talk about your experience of the pair (“I notice I go quiet when we talk money”) without citing their Saturn.
Minors. Do not. Not as a cute story.
Hygiene for the report itself: how to read a relationship reading. Prompts that stay on your side of the street: questions to ask.
Talk Like a Person, Not Like a Prosecutor
Weapon: “Your Moon-Saturn explains why you’re cold.”
Share: “I keep using Saturn language for how tense our evenings are. Can we talk about evenings without the chart?”
If they did not ask for astrology, leave the glyphs in your pocket. If they did ask, still do not diagnose. Just for fun does not cover a character assassination with a trine.
Screenshots
Strip names, dates, and locations if the image can leave the room. Assume it will. Do not post a “look at his 12th house” story. Do not use a reading as social proof that you were right in a fight.
If The Whisper shows a compatibility card, it is for the people who entered the dates. It is not a poster.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I already sent the screenshot? Say so. Delete what you can. Do not add a second essay.
Can I share a celebrity chart? Public birth data is a gray ethics zone the internet pretends is white. Still do not be cruel. The person is not a teaching corpse.
What if the reading scared me about them? That fear is yours. A therapist or a friend who is not doing glyphs is the next room. Not a second app.
