Their first minute, framed forever.
The minute a child is born, the sky is doing something it will never do again. We compute that minute — every planet, the angle between each pair, the sign rising over the horizon — and draw it. A nursery heirloom, not wall filler. From $29.

Fig. I — four designs, all drawn from one example minute: 14 March 2024, 04:12, London. Change the minute and every line moves. Yours will look nothing like this.
A star map draws the fixed constellations over a place. Everyone born in the same city that night gets the same picture, and the date is a caption printed underneath it. These prints are computed from the moving sky — the ten bodies, the geometry between them, the degree rising in the east. That geometry is different at 04:11 than at 04:12, which is the whole point: the art is a portrait of one minute, and the minute belongs to one person.
And because every line is vector, the file is the deliverable — print it at A1 today, print it again at A3 for the grandparents, print it again in twenty years. How the math works →
How it works
Give the minute
Date, time and place of birth. The time is what makes a birth poster theirs rather than that day's — it sets the ascendant, and the whole geometry turns on it.
The sky is computed
Swiss Ephemeris positions for the ten bodies, the angles between them, the ascendant, and the day in the 260-day Mayan count. Every line on the print is one of those numbers.
You get files that print
A PDF and a 300dpi PNG, sharp at A1, ready for any print shop — plus the written reading on a private page that doesn't expire.
For the nursery, and for later
A print now. A letter to open at eighteen.
Every order includes the written reading — 12 short chapters drawn from both the Western chart and the Mayan count. Most parents don’t read it to a newborn. They hang the print, keep the link, and hand it over on a birthday that matters.

Questions
What do I actually receive?
Print-ready files — a vector PDF and a 300dpi PNG — for each design in your order, plus a permanent private page with the reading and the natal wheel. You can order a physical print on 300gsm matte, framed in oak, at checkout.
How big can I print it?
A1 (594 × 841mm) with room to spare. The art is drawn as vector, so it is resolution-independent — the file is just as sharp scaled down to A3 for a nursery wall.
We don't know the exact birth time.
The date alone still gives you the day sign, the tone and the Sun — and prints that are honestly computed from what's known. But the ascendant and the houses need the time, so we mark what's approximate rather than inventing it. Hospital records and birth certificates usually have the minute.
Is this a star map?
No. A star map shows the constellations over a place, and every map of the same night is identical. These are drawn from the moving bodies — where each planet stood, the angles between them, the ascendant on the horizon — so two babies born an hour apart get visibly different art.
Can I give it before the baby arrives?
Yes. Buy it as a gift and the certificate goes out immediately with no birth details attached — the parents enter the minute themselves once it exists.
One minute, and it never repeats.
Give it a date, a time and a place. From $29.
