Astrology Settings

2025, Luna Astrology: Making astrology settings customization fun

The Problem

  • The Settings section of Luna needed a revamp:

    • General settings applied across the board - instead the goal was to create ‘Preference Sets’ a user could apply to one specific chart, or one type of chart’

    • This allowed for more customization for power users and increased the brand’s desirability to professional astrologers

My Role

I was hired on as a contractor to assume full responsibility for the UX and UI of the project.

Issues with Existing Site

The existing website Settings experience remained a little dull, with checkboxes for customization on every page. Each page looked the same making it confusing to users where they were.

The Brief

  • Create custom Aspects, Chart Points and Midpoints pages

  • Allow user to create a custom set and name it

  • Allow user to apply a custom set to any existing chart or chart type

  • Support Light and Dark mode

The Designs: Dark Mode

  • Increased the use of color to enliven the experience

  • Used more imagery and iconography to add visual delight

  • Used chips, instead of plain text, to make tables readable at a glance

  • Created card styles for custom sets to make them engaging

My Design Approach

  • Created suggested preset groupings of most used astrological bodies, to encourage novice Astrologers to engage with new areas of expertise

  • Made Chart Points selection page tap-friendly, considering mobile usage, by adding new engaging icon buttons
