PERSONALIZED STAR MAP

Your moment,
written in the stars.

There is a date that takes you back. Give it its sky, a name, and the words that mean something to you. Start with a template and make it your own.

ONE DATE. EVERYTHING IT MEANS.

You choose what makes it personal.

A star map can mark a birth, a first meeting or the day your story changed. The date, place and time locate the sky. Your words tell the story behind it.

01

The moment

Choose a date from 1900 to 2050, a place and the local time. Bring up to six moments together in the same composition.

02

The words

Add names, a title and a dedication. A phrase you share can say more than any template.

03

The design

Try colours, lettering and sizes. Adjust the layout and map layers, or keep the starting design.

FROM A MEMORY TO A DESIGN

Start with a date. Make it yours.

A COMPOSITION OF YOUR OWN

One moment to remember. Or several to tell the story.

Give one sky the whole spotlight. If your story has several beginnings, bring together two, three or up to six. Each keeps its own date and place; you choose the order.

About the sky and the previews

This is calculated artwork, not a photograph of the past. It does not recreate clouds or light pollution. Moon and planet symbols are enlarged. The live layout is a simplified chart; the artwork preview uses the final renderer at a smaller size.

CLEAR ANSWERS

Frequently asked questions

All questions and answers →
What is a personalized star map?

It is a calculated representation of star positions for a date, place and time. You can add names and personal words. It is not a historical photograph of the sky.

Does the sky change with the date and place?

Yes. The date, time and coordinates all inform the calculation. The map does not reconstruct clouds, light pollution or the actual viewing conditions that day.

Do I need design experience?

No. Choose a template and change its details and words. Layout, lettering and layer adjustments are optional. You can check the composition in the on-screen preview.

Can I download the preview?

The on-screen preview is for checking your design. Downloads are available after payment and approval of the final artwork: a full-resolution PDF and PNG in your chosen size, without the preview watermark.
