The Atlas of Self · a 120-page book about one person

120 pages, all about you.

Send six photos and your birthday. We trace the lines on your own palms, work out the sky over the minute you were born, read your Chinese year, your moon and your numbers, and print the lot as a proper hardback with your name on the cover. It takes about ten minutes of your time.

Printed to order and posted to you. Where the book says two independent readers, it means two pieces of software checking each other, not two people.

How it works

Ten minutes from you. We do the rest.

Take a few photos on your phone, tell us when you were born, and check the palm tracing before anything prints. You get a 120-page hardback with your name on the cover, printed to order.

  1. Someone photographing their own open palm with a phone, flat on a sheet of paper on a kitchen table

    01 · Ten minutes

    Snap a few photos

    Six on your phone: both palms, each hand from the side, a selfie and one eye. Then your birth date, time and place. That's your bit done.

  2. A phone showing the traced palm with its four lines named in copper, and two buttons to confirm or flag it

    02 · You approve it

    Check the tracing

    We trace the lines off your photo and send it back with each one labelled. Tick what's right, flag what isn't. Nothing goes to print until you're happy.

  3. A pair of hands lifting the navy Atlas of Self hardcover out of its parcel

    03 · It arrives

    A hardback with your name on it

    120 pages, A4 landscape, printed to order and posted to you. It's built from your own photos and birth details, so nobody else has the same one.

No. I · The Atlas of Self

A whole book, about one person.

Your palms traced from your own photos, your chart worked out for the minute you were born, your Chinese year, your moon and your numbers, all read together in one place. Buy it for yourself, or give it to someone who already has everything and is impossible to buy for.

No. II · The Atlas of Us

One book, both your names.

120 pages about the two of you. A full read on each of you first, then where you meet: what you are like in a good week, what happens in a bad one, and what to do about the same argument you keep having. One book, both your names on it.

Real Moon, real Neptune, real stars

No. III · Atlas Prints

Your own sky, on the wall.

The Moon lit exactly the way it was the night you were born, the planet that rules your sign as a NASA spacecraft photographed it, or your sign's own stars where they actually sit. Real imagery, your numbers, printed on heavyweight matte in navy, white or black.
