Would you say that....

Draconic charts hint towards our purpose, destiny, what we are here to do and our journey towards self actualization, perhaps your older self..


Heliocentric hints towards our public image, our outer social persona and how we come off to others at work and socially...


Geocentric what we are born with and who we are, the issues we have to work out before we start working on our higher self and the issues and gifts we are aware of as well as those very close to us.


This is so far how I see the three types of charts.


I am trying to better understand how they differ..

I believe they're based on perspective.

You mean like each gives you a different perspective of yourself.....like seeing yourself from different angles??

The Draconic description resonates with me

I always check Draconic for everything, it reveals a lot for me personally.

I resonate with my Draconic Sun a lot.

" Once the author has introduced the concept of integrating the meaning of the Earth into the horoscope, he moves nimbly on to describe how he applies heliocentric astrology. He uses heliocentric along with geocentric charts and has a simple way of integrating the two: Essentially he describes the heliocentric as having to do with our public lives, while the geocentric refers to the more private self. (His description of actor Cary Grant in this regard is memorable.)

Whitmann offers an easy way to begin to use both types of charts together: Determine whether the Earth in the heliocentric chart receives the closest aspect, or the Sun in the geocentric chart for the same person. If the Sun (geocentric) receives the closer aspect, "the person will be more ego driven than Earth driven." If the Earth (heliocentric) receives the closer aspect, "the person will emphasize more Earth ruled themes." Earth-focused people's behavior may be "wilder and less civilized," and "they may prefer life in the country or the wilderness, or dress or behave as if they do."

This technique - seeing whether the heliocentric or geocentric position of each planet is dominant (determined by which receives the closer aspect) - is carried throughout the other bodies in the horoscope. The more dominant position suggests whether that function is more directly displayed in one's public or private life. Whitmann uses all the planets and the "big four" asteroids - with especially insightful views on the asteroids."

So perhaps

-heliocentric: public self

-geocentric: private self

e.g Helio venus in aries and geo venus in leo: I am a go getter in love and I am attracted to guys that don't let me dominate them but see me as their equals (sun in scorpio with venus in libra and libra rising, or mars conjunct uranus in scorpio but with sun in libra, or mars in aries with sun square pluto and moon in aries but venus in the 12th) But deep down I wan to be swept off my feet and be the top priority (geo venus in leo) as well as their partner in crime (helio venus in aries).

-draconic: the force of destiny pushing you towards self actualization, destiny, what you attract and gravitates towards you. The result is how you are like as you evolve and get older...

e.g.I have draco venus in gemini....my relationships have always had an important physical component but married someone who is more intellectual so over time have grown to value a more mercurial type of relationship. Draco sun in cancer with draco moon in capricorn: over time I have become more resilient and do not wear my heart on my sleeve anymore but am cautious and stronger. Draco moon in capricorn is now keeping in check my helio and geo moon in pisces.

To me, draconic is not the old self, it's the future self, the direction, which of course, integrates past with present towards the future.

Geocentric is the present incarnation and Heliocentric is the Higher self, your "stellar" self, the astral, the spirit. We look at Helio and Draco for a glance at the ideal self vs. the actual self (geocentric).

But the clues of the journey are in all charts,IMO.
