Etymology
The word 'natal' originates from the Latin word 'natalis', which means 'pertaining to birth'. 'Natalis' itself is derived from 'nasci', meaning 'to be born'. This connection highlights the word's strong ties to birth and origins. 'Natal' has been adopted into the English language and is primarily used in medical, psychological, and astrological contexts to denote factors that are essential or relevant to an individual's birth. The term conveys a sense of beginnings and the foundational aspects that arise from being born, an important concept in various fields of study.
