There are many couples that would like to have children but for some reason, it does not happen. How do we see about pregnancy in the natal chart? The first thing would be to study the position and aspects of the Moon. This video contains is just an example chart, of the moment in which I decided to make an astrological video about pregnancy.

The Moon is on 8 Libra, while Mars is on 3 Leo and there is nice sextile aspect between them. Sextile is the aspect of ease, works in small groups, is analogous to the third house and the sign of Gemini. The difference of 5 degrees is analogous to the sign of Leo and the 5th house, which is about children, so if this were the chart of a woman asking about pregnancy in the natal chart, she would be bound to have at least one child throughout her life.

The other thing to watch about pregnancy in the natal chart is the 5th house. Here, the 5th house is extremely strong, with the Sun and Venus in it. The Sun in the 5th house makes “having children” the main theme of this chart, while Venus is both the ruler of the fifth house and is in the sign through which it rules it, the sign of Taurus. So this is a chart about pregnancy, and very much so!

It would be better if the planets in the fifth house had more favourable aspects. Here, there is just trine between Venus and Jupiter and the trine between the Sun and Jupiter from Capricorn.

The fifth house always means the first pregnancy or conception, and is very important when trying to conceive in general. In this chart, there is a square aspect between the Sun and Neptune, which is a very unfortunate aspect. The first pregnancy could go on for some time without being noticed or diagnosed, and there could be a forced abortion because the woman would be taking medicaments without being aware of being pregnant at the time.

The second pregnancy is denoted by the 7th house, the third pregnancy is denoted by the 9th house and so on. For a woman with this horoscope, we would say that the first and the third pregnancy would be feasible, while the empty 7th house would denote that the fate of the second pregnancy would be defined by the planets that her husband would bring into that part of her horoscope, through synastry.

For women with a history of infertility or with a diagnosed marital infertility, we would also study the solar return chart and the secondary progression chart. The 8th house denotes the actual course of the first pregnancy, the 10th house is the course of the second pregnancy and so on.
