/r/horary
A place for study, discussion, and learning about horary astrology - the art of of-the-moment astrological charts used to answer specific questions.
Before you post a horary chart
Think through your question – make sure it’s clear and simple.
Cast your chart in Regiomontanus. Cast it for the place and time you understood the question being asked.
Provide context. Who is asking the question, who is involved, how do they relate to you, and what’s going on?
Attempt your own interpretation if you can. If you are not able to do so, it may be better to seek out someone to cast the chart for you.
Be prepared to give feedback. Return to your post and tell people what happened.
Bare-bones judgment steps
Choose relevant houses to find significators. Locate those planets in the chart.
Essential and accidental dignity show strength and ability to act.
Receptions show the planets' attitudes towards each other
Aspects between significators or to antiscia (by ☌ or ☍) can show events. Applying aspects show future events, separating aspects show past events. Aspects to other planets often prohibit.
Fixed stars conjunct cusps or significators and relevant Arabic Parts and their dispositors may add information.
Come to judgment.

I met my ex after 6 months that we broke up, and tbh, idk what the hell is going on, it was uncomfortable, but I can find the reason yet. We finished in normal circumstances, no drama, no nothing. That’s why I can’t understand why was so uncomfortable.
How would you cast a chart for forecasting the outcome of the US election? I was studying horary with a great teacher some years ago but she died and I haven't found a good source to continue learning. Thank you.
Context/Interpretation: I have been practicing at and did my teacher training at a particular yoga studio, have been teaching there sporadically, and want to know if I am going to be given a regularly scheduled class to teach there.
L1, I believe, would be Jupiter because the ASC is in Sag. I know Jupiter is benefic and conjunct/opposite angles, but it's weakened in Gemini and weakened by the retrograde. Jupiter is in separating opposition to the ASC, which would indicate that an opportunity has already passed. I don't know if that could be the case because I am still actively teaching there, just not regularly, and I also just started teaching there. I know that the moon can also join the L1 in representing me, and the moon is in its fall in Scorpio. I wonder if the chart is picking up on my anxiety, fear, or worry that I won't be hired regularly. While I don't always fall into that mindset, sometimes it creeps in. That's one interpretation, but it doesn't help me answer the question itself-- it just points out that I'm anxious.
If I also use the moon to signify me, the moon is in a waxing phase, and making applying aspects to Mars and Mercury. Because Jupiter is in a Mercury-ruled house, that makes me think that there is some possibility under the surface, especially with the moon as one of my significators in the 11th house of hopes, wishes, gains, and communities making positive aspects to Mercury and to Mars, which is also in the 7th house, representing contracts.
I am new to horary and would appreciate any readings of the chart and advice on how I'm analyzing placements and aspects. Thank you!
Hi everyone!i cast the chart asking "will I win the green card this year"I applied for the lottery I m mars in is own fall and triplicity i the 9 (foreign land)house ..mercury lord of the 11(hopes,wish luck)are connected with an applying trine,mercury is in mars domicile and in the first house(me)Odes green card might be related for the 11 th radical house as a grant for the government (10 house)?or it might be related to the 7th as a 11 from the 9th?moon in the 9 is makin a trine with venus in the first house ..after applying to a square with the sun in the 12 house ..is that a bad prohibition? Thanks for the ones willing to help☀️
Hi friends. I understand buying/selling is a L1/L7 question?
Anyways I'm thinking about going to this one record store to sell some of my vinyls because I need to pay a bill. I cast this one after I found the store and looked up directions...
Some of my records are still factory sealed and some have never been played.
So I am L1, Saturn in Pisces. Seller is L7, Moon in Scorpio. And I think the price would be L10, Mars in Cancer?
Moon applies to Saturn, so the selling would go through, but...
I look at L7 and because the Moon is combust, I can't help but feel like this is describing a shady person? The type to try and give you $20 for a mint, factory sealed record you paid $50 for. 🫠 Slimy.
And even the condition of L10, fallen, I feel based off that, I'll be lowballed for my vinyls at this place. Literally the price in fall. I'm still selecting the ones I want to sell, but there's three I have that are selling online for $40 at the lowest and $60-$80 at the highest. And I have about 6 other records I'm considering.
I think I won't get a fair price based on the seller (Moon ruling Mars and the nasty mutual reception) and should find another record store. When I find a different record store, would I be fit to recast?
Hi, I cast a chart asking whether or not I would get the car I’ve been looking at. I am unsure what house I should use. Initially I thought L3 since that rules travel, but then I thought about it and thought I should use L2. But I also remember that I would be signing a contract and thought maybe L7? I’ll post the chart later, but I want to make sure I have a good interpretation to start.
A horary question
I’m curious which house I use for a student work placement.
I’ve done two charts for two different places I’m considering but..,
It’s a year long position in final year of a masters program . It’s higher education so 9th? Or could be 10th house as that will be how I am seen and what I’m doing in a public and professional capacity .
Apparently my first post was deemed lacking, so I will try again. My daughter has a well loved stuffed alligator that is missing. We’ve looked for it to no avail. In this chart Leo rules the second house of moveable possessions so the alligator is represented by the sun. I am the moon (ruler of H1) and my daughter is mars, ruler of H5. The sun is in a separating square from mars, Representing that the alligator has gotten away from her. It is in the 4th house, suggesting the alligator is in the house somewhere, which tracks because I can’t think of anyplace she may have brought him. There is an applying trine to Saturn, ruler of the seventh and eighth houses. So I’m feeling like “basement” or “somewhere low” is where it will be found. Thoughts?
I had a jupiter ring created for me and I cannot find it. I know it’s in my home, I would like to have an idea of where it might be.
I need to write out everything, even obvious things.. Just fyi
ASC: PISCES 23 DEGREES Jupiter in gemini at 20 degree’s in 3rd house
Mercury in 8H at 20 degrees
MOON: VIRGO 2 DEGREES in 6H
Mercury in 8H at 20 degrees
Gemini on Cusp of 4th (ruled by mercury)
Mercury and Jupiter are inconjunct
Moon Trine Sun
Areas? Somewhere high (likely near a window, high shelf) +/or somewhere near water, running water
Somewhere near where communications happen. Maybe by my divination corner?
Very much so still learning horary, I appreciate any help/pointers/etc..
Ring: represented by moon, Jupiter or both?
I feel like Mercury is going to show/tell me where to find it.
My ex whom I share a child with is dating someone for about a year and in this time I have seen them change the way they parent which bothers me tremendously. We’ve also upon splitting agreed that we would not involve others in our child’s life however they seem to want to go back on that agreement more recently. I would rather not push it if this is something that will soon run its course so I cast a chart to determine if my ex and the person they’re dating would break up and if so when.
I’m new to horary so I’d appreciate some insight.
I used L7 to represent my ex, L11 to represent the other person since it’d be my exs 5H. Moon representing the situation/ my question.
L7 Mercury in Scorpio in 11H and seems to tell me they’re focused on this partner.
L11 Venus in 12H - something hidden or not completely understood (makes sense from my pov since I’ve never met them)
Moon is in Leo 8H house which makes me think there’s some sort of transformation happening possibly. Moon also squaring Mercury may indicate some tension there.
Saturn squaring Venus also may show some delays in relationship progression as well?
I was thinking: what if the Moon is a significator in a contest election chart (i.e ASC in Cancer or Capricorn) what planet then do the people get? In election questions the candidate who makes an aspect first with the people's significator, naturally the Moon, wins. So, who's the people in this case?
I think this is a no. Maybe? Ascendant and 5H and lord of the 1st all in fertile water signs. The Moon in Leo which I believe is barren? Moon and Mars are conjunct but separating, although I don’t rule that out because if I am pregnant then it would have happened around 1-1.5 weeks ago. I do plan on taking a test in a few days when it’s enough days past my ovulation to be accurate. Still lord of the 5th Jupiter doesn’t aspect Mars or the Moon. So no?
Hello! A year ago, I casted two charts asking how my friend felt about me. One before we were intimate and one after. The consensus was that he wanted more from me, but that I was not interested in a relationship and that I was feeling bad about myself and having been intimate with him. Turns out, we did start a relationship and I’ve fallen in love with him. I’m hoping this year, we can really start thinking about our future together and ideally discuss marriage. Which led me to ask this question. I cast this chart a while ago, but never posted to get an answer.
For my interpretation, I am represented by the moon and Venus, while he is Saturn and the sun. The moon is in detriment of Saturn, I understand this as me being disappointed in him or how he carries himself. The moon is in detriment of the sun, so I’m thinking he might lose interest in my emotional state. Venus is in her fall, showing that I’m hurting by the situation. However, the moon and Saturn make a trine aspect so I’m thinking this may be a yes, but it won’t be a smooth relationship and there could be a breakup in the future. Any insight would be appreciated
Let me preface this by saying I will take a pregnancy test very soon and that will give me my definitive answer. Just pulled this because I am a few days late which is fairly unusual. We had one mishap this month so it’s possible. I happened to pull a chart a couple days before I tested positive with my daughter in 2022 and it was correct lol.
Anyway,
The fact that L5 is in 1H while also being in an applying conjunction with L1 is a very telling sign for pregnancy, however I’m not sure if should be seeing separating aspects instead for that. L1 moon in the 12th is stumping me because it’s making me think no, but it’s also in an applying conjunction with the ascendant so I’m not sure. Maybe this is due to the pregnancy still being unknown to me or early. Both L1 and L5 are in fertile signs but one is in domicile while the other is in fall. Venus in 5th is nice, but it’s in an applying square with saturn. Also, my natal ascendant is 18° cancer, while this chart is 19° cancer so it overlays on my natal chart almost perfectly. What do you guys think? It wouldn’t be the most perfect time, but I wouldn’t be upset if I were. Thanks for looking!
Hello everyone. I am hoping to get some insight on this chart. I have recently applied to a workforce development program and am wondering if I will be accepted into the course. I have previously attended one of the company’s other programs, but the one in question is the one I have wanted to attend for a year now. I completed the first part of the application process and have a questionnaire and an interview to do yet.
I have a few ideas about this. I am Jupiter and the moon while I used L9 Mercury for the “school.” I have heard that in yes or no questions, I should look at the ascendant and descendant to see if they are harmonious and make an aspect or if they are disharmonious and make no aspect. Jupiter sits in Mercury’s domicile, but there is no aspect between our significators. The moon makes a trine to Mercury so I interpret this as me liking the company. So with consideration to the fact that I have not completed the process, I am leaning towards either me having asked this question too early or that this is a no. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi! - I have thought about giving up on horary in general because it has become increasingly harder for me to decode especially after reading contrasting opinions on here and on skyscript. The question for this chart is Will I meet my next long time partner between now and before the end of next year? When? What will he look like?
L1 - Saturn; L7 - Moon
The first problem I am facing is assessing the radicality of the chart. It was cast on the day of the sun and the hour of mars, nothing to do with the L1 or L7. However, I am more than often given Saturn in any horary I cast, this I find uncanny. Would you say this chart is radical?
Second question, the moon in the 5H is applying to a square to Saturn in the 2H, in partile! The aspect will perfect in 15 minutes. Does this mean this is sort of already happening? Will it happen very soon? Both significators have no particular dignity, but they are not in their fall or detriment. The moon just separated from an opposition to Venus, ruler of the 5th, and will conjunct Jupiter in the 6H next.
Mars in the 7H which would give hints as to what the other person looks like etc.
As you see, I have tried to keep it simple otherwise my head starts spinning and I cannot make sense of anything else. However, even so I cannot make up a coherent story out of all this. The two significators applying is encouraging, but the aspect is a square. The moon separating from an opposition to L5 Venus is also confusing, did this person just separated/divorced? Could you help? Thanks so much!
Hi guys! Something I’m learning more about is timing events and predictions with horary
I have a good general understanding about how an applying aspect and it’s degrees tells time in horary. Usually, the time is in minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years. However, my question is, how do you determine the possible time type?
For example, let’s say significators are moon and Jupiter. Moon is applying to Jupiter with 3 degree difference and you’re asking “when will he message me”. Obviously, 3 years or even months isn’t likely in most situations so it gets narrowed to minutes, hours, days and weeks, right?
Explanation to come in comments
CONTEXT:
i've been unemployed for 6 months and have been going through numerous interviews with no luck. this current opportunity however is perfect: remote with a good salary. i made it past the screening round and have a technical next week, though i am a bit nervous because i've never done anything like it before. not to mention i don't have faith in my skills lol.
not too familiar with horary but i will take a shot at it. i'm represented by jupiter in gemini, and the job is represented by mercury in libra. my co-significator is cap moon, in its detriment. jupiter is also in detriment and retrograde. i don't think this is a good sign for me even with the trine between mercury and jupiter.
Hi, I wanted to know if my friend is romantically interested in me. We are both women btw. We recently became friends in September. At first I thought nothing of her but recently I gave her my phone number and she has been very flirty towards me via text but I’m not sure if this is like friendly flirting. She calls me baby, and tells me she loves me but she puts emojis with those texts so I think that it’s sarcastic.
At first I thought it was but then I was like I don’t do this with any friend except my bff but we started that two years into the relationship. I’ve only known this girl for 1 & 1/2 months.
IRL, she is a bit reserved and she doesn’t do any of the things she does on text messages but she sometimes gives me small punches on my shoulder and sometimes I will say something and she’ll just start laughing but I’m deadass confused cause I didn’t say anything funny 🧍🏾♀️
I know someone is going to say just ask her but I feel like it is too early in the friendship to ask about her sexuality. Also, I am an overthinker and neurodivergent so I’m struggling to figure this out and it is overtaking my mind. Can someone please help me, thank you
I recently ordered a horary astrology question from a well known, professional horary (and other types of) astrologer. They have credentials and have been featured on the most popular astrology podcast.
I was very scared about a severe pain in my abdomen that was showing a large mass. I asked if it was deadly/cancer and they said yes, could be cancer, a very serious condition. Strangely, they also named a bunch of body parts I would be having trouble with and none of it was true. I don't have cancer or anything serious after all. This person of course frightened me terribly and had me planning for my possible death for no reason.
I'm beginning to deeply suspect that this type of astrology shows your emotional state at the time of the question and not objective reality. I was terrified when I asked and he included multiple details that did accurately reflect what I was most fearing in the moment, and not what actually was true in the end. I can't understand why else this astrologer was so inaccurate.

My coworker asked me a horary question. To help them find a missing personal item do I do 2nd house from 6th house (for coworker) or just 2nd house?

Hey everyone I have recently discovered horary charts after finding them mentioned in an astrology book I ordered not too long ago but I am quite confused when it comes to trying to bring the chart up. I read the pinned post about bringing the charts up and tried to bring it up on astro seek and the chart just looks like my natal chart. Same placements, in the same houses, degrees,etc. Is it meant to look like that or is it meant to be similar to a secondary progressions chart where it's similar to your natal chart but in present day there are differences?
I cast a Horary Chart asking “Will he ever contact me?”
He is someone I had a very meaningful connection with, but it ended abruptly. It never blossomed, and I never got closure that I needed. I finally decided to cast a Horary chart about him, because I’m finally no longer scared of what the answer could be (moon is squaring L1 so I’m not too sure about that haha)
My interpretation: I am Mercury in Libra (and Moon in Aquarius)
He is Jupiter in Gemini (and Sun in Libra)
He is Jupiter in Gemini (ruled by Mercury - I’m Mercury) - however, he’s detriment, but he’s in my house. He’s also retrograde.
I am Mercury in Libra in the 5th House.
There is a TRINE between Jupiter (him) and Mercury (me) - however I’m not sure if the aspect is good considering Jupiter is in detriment or if there are other aspects affecting it.
My question was “Will he ever contact me?” The trine between L1 and L7 is telling me yes but I feel like there are other factors at play here that I don’t know about? I feel like that “Yes” was too easy maybe I’m missing something?
Thanks in advance!
We recently broke up with my ex, we haven’t spoken at all since and don’t have each other on any social media anymore but other than Spotify.
I looked through my follower list yesterday and saw he changed the style of his username so I decided to go on his profile. He never uses Spotify, and always prefers Youtube Music. He only got it for me because I wanted to make joint playlists with him when we were together. I am still the only people he follows on there, but when I went on the profile, I saw he has a new public playlist for the first time with the title that is a girl’s name and it is a join playlist with said girl full of love songs, and to me I find that really bizarre and upsetting because we broke up so recently and that was something we done together and if anything I pushed us to use Spotify.
If this is what I think it is, I don’t understand how he can so easily develop a bond with someone enough to create a Spotify playlist with them so quickly when he told me so many things about how hard it would be to move on. He must have either never really cared about me, or he is just making this public playlist because it is the only access we have to each other and knows if I see it, it will upset me.
I erected a horary chart asking if he really is with someone else? I am Mars in Cancer, not feeling very good about the situation. Feeling at an emotional loss probably due to being in my 8th House. He is Venus, and while I appreciate his Venus is in Scorpio next to the ASC, which shows he must still have some feelings towards me, Sun (his secondary signifier) and Mercury are just separating from a conjunction. Sun is him as a male, and in Libra which likes Venus (himself) and Mercury is also in Libra, so Mercury likes him too after a recent contact. Is Mercury this mysterious new person? Mercury rules 2nd and 4th so not 100% sure.
I think knowing this information will help me truly see his true character and and gain the closure I need. If you think my analysis is correct, please show me your reasons for why you agree, or if you think there is something I missed or am not seeing about the situation correctly through speculation, it would be greatly appriciated.
Background: I just took my first exam in nursing school! Not feeling great about it lol especially since I won’t even know my results for awhile. Anything under B- or 80% is failing. I thought this would be a fun way to learn more about horary & comparing results with the chart. I will update as soon as I get the results back.
My interpretation: I am moon and Saturn. The test is either 3rd or 9th. Because it’s higher education, let’s just say it’s 9th house, which would be Mars. I was told once that for this kind of question, you just want to measure the dignity of each significator and if yours are stronger, you “beat” the test or challenge. I think I used this method a long time ago and it did well. Moon & Saturn are peregrine. Mars is debilitated. (And just for safe measure) Even 3rd house ruler, Venus, is in fall. I want to say I did ok. Maybe 70s or 80s. I know 70s isn’t passing but if I got in that range, I wouldn’t be too upset bc it won’t affect my overall grade too harshly….
Today I bumped into someone I had met at a previous job.
They used to be very kind but they completely ignored me today.
Which prompted me to wonder if I didn't get the wrong person ?
So was it that former work networker ?
I've been working non stop and have a bad eyesight. Stopped working there more than two years ago
Probably they also changed job.
I am mercury the person is jupiter
Trine separating mercury. Yet it was that person.
No clue as to why they didn't reply back when I said hello how have you been.
Hi, reposting this with degrees listed...
BG: Was exchanging messages with a person and felt odd about it. Claimed to be different age, name, ethnicity, living in different country and was seeking sexual info and pictures from me, but wouldn't send me a picture. I pulled this chart, asking if it was [[Sean]] catfishing me. Sean is someone I was in a relationship with but have not spoken to in years because of the way he harmed me. Sean has issues with letting our relationship die, being possessive/territorial when we are not together and has done a lot of desperate things in the past to remain attached to me or keep us together without care for what I want. Too much to go into detail. This relationship has caused me a lot of distress. It is the worst relationship I've ever been in. I worry he was seeking blackmail material.
Taurus rises and Venus is signifier of love is in detriment, signifying poor love matters.
So I am Venus in Scorpio (L1) and Moon in Scorpio.
Sean/quesited is fallen Mars in Cancer (L7) and Sun in Libra. Mars is the natural signifier of liars and criminals, so there's that.
Part of Marriage is Taurus, signified by Venus in Scorpio.
So I am in Sean's domicile by way of Venus and Moon, in his 7H. He is on my mind and I feel terrible. Moon in detriment of POM's lord shows my dislike towards our relationship. Moon in his domicile, he literally brings me down, very fitting for a fallen Moon. Moon is changing dignity, so it's not forever.
Sean is Mars in my domicile, his own triplicity. Sean is Sun in my domicile. Both significators are in their fall. He is not depicted to be behaving well. His Sun being in my domicile, wanting sexual stuff from me and Venus being the sexual side of a woman and significator of our relationship. Ironic because that's all our relationship was: a way for him to have sex
L1 and L7 aspect through trine and Mars receives Venus by domicile and triplicity. So it brings us together and is a yes to the catfishing question, right?
