I can do it under the guise of being curious about whether or not they were born in the middle of the night, or if they were kind on their mother and came during the day (actually I am curious about that tbh, not just a guise). But if they don't know their time of birth, you can't really pursue it any further without telling them why.

Share your tips and stories 🙂

I just offer to do their birth charts for them!

what about people who you're close to who dont believe in astrology and will look at you weird for saying that

I say let me do it and you can tell me if it's wrong

They're usually interested as most people like hearing about themselves!

I used to be slick about it but now I don't care. I ask them straight up and I tell them why. I have half of my departments natal chart LOL. Also when dating I will ask them out right as well. I am working on being open and not being self conscious about quirky things about me. I love studying astrology if people think it is weird that is ok. I use it to gauge what kind of reaction I will get about it because I want someone who accepts me for me and a big part of my life is astrology. I don't post on here everyday and I am still learning a lot, but you can be I read post on here everyday and do my own research. *shrugs*

I usually ask but some are problematic because they reply with their sign.

My method is id cards:

"How old are you?"
"X"
"I don't believe you! No way!"
"Here you go"

*immediately looks at the strings of numbers and sees the complete birthdate*

"indeed you are born in X. interesting. you sound/look younger/older"

If we're chummy then I just tell them about how other than star signs there's a thing called rising signs which is more specific in determining personality and I offer to find out for them! Most are usually interested... Then later I secretly study the rest of their chart on my own...
