Horary

Independent question chart · Lilly-style tropical Regiomontanus

Cast a question chart

Record when and where the question was received and understood under your chosen practice. The natal timestamp is never used automatically.

“Use current UTC time” keeps UTC when you choose a location. Edit the date, time or zone to enter a different recorded local moment.

How to use Horary worksheet

Organize a question judgement with a separate tropical Regiomontanus chart, classical significators, selected dignity conditions and a seven-day event sequence. The worksheet exposes some evidence for interpretation; it does not deliver a complete traditional verdict.

Inputs: Exact question, recorded local date and time, IANA time zone and question coordinates. Resolve a repeated clock time if needed. Record the practice used to choose the moment in the notes; the natal timestamp is not used automatically.

  1. Enter the question and its recorded moment, then choose the question location.
  2. Cast the chart and select the house for the matter. Record why that house represents the quesited.
  3. Select each significator and the Moon. Inspect the five dignity holders, exact term/face strips and day/night triplicity. Use the endpoint selector only to compare the declared arithmetic conventions.
  4. Read the accidental-condition cards: house category, motion and solar proximity. Check same-sign and Sun/Moon exceptions and open the source-difference notes before interpreting.
  5. Read reception directionally, then compare the applying/separating aspect with the actual event sequence.
  6. Review exact contacts, ingresses and stations. Translation and collection of light require manual judgement.
  7. Save supporting and contrary testimony in the notes and download the worksheet. Preserve an inconclusive result when the chosen method supplies insufficient testimony.
Teaching example · invented coordinates

Invented positions: Mercury at 10° Virgo and Jupiter at 12° Taurus are 118° apart. With Mercury moving direct at 1.2° per day and Jupiter at 0.2° per day, their separation increases toward the 120° trine. The current motion is applying with a 2° gap. Their full orbs of 7° and 9° give an 8° pair allowance. This does not convert the gap into two days or guarantee a completed contact.

This preset uses tropical Regiomontanus independently of the natal lens; it is not a Prashna mode. The five essential dignities follow Lilly’s printed table, with detriment and fall shown separately. Peregrine requires all five checks and known day/night. Hosting checks all five positional links; the accidental ledger adds selected house/motion/solar conditions, but a full score, reception and perfection still require additional judgment. Endpoint comparison does not reconstruct historical minute rounding. The seven-day event search is finite, and the Moon’s sign-exit count is one defined test, not a universal void-of-course judgement. The quesited is not always house seven, and dignity or application alone does not supply an answer.
