Account and Settings

Accessing Settings

Navigate to Dashboard > Settings from the sidebar (gear icon at the bottom).

Right after signup, the dashboard invites you to Finish your account setup — three short steps in Settings > Essentials:

Timezone — confirm the detected timezone (or pick another) so daily insights, reminders, and timing windows use local time.
Notifications — daily insight, push, and email toggles.
Privacy basics — who can see your profile, whether connections see your birth chart, and anonymous product analytics.

Finishing dismisses the dashboard reminder. Every choice remains editable in the Notifications and Privacy sections.

Update your birth date, time, and location
Adding or correcting birth time unlocks rising sign, houses, and planetary hours
Changes automatically regenerate your Soul Codex

Control what notifications you receive and how:

AI personalization consent — Control whether Astra uses your full conversation history for personalization
Data embedding consent — Control whether your data is used for advanced AI features
Profile visibility — Control what's visible in community features
