About this tool

This tool draws on traditional classical fixed-star astrology (Robson, Brady, Ebertin) practices. These are spiritual and reflective traditions, not medical or psychological treatments. Many people find these practices supportive for self-reflection and emotional well-being, but they should not be used as a substitute for professional care.

Star longitudes are projected from J2000 with precession applied at ~50.3 arcseconds per year. Classical fixed-star interpretations are archetypal, read them as a mirror for self-reflection, not as a prediction.

For entertainment and self-reflection. Not a substitute for professional medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice.

Results are personal and vary from one person to the next. What many people find supportive may not work the same way for you, and nothing here is a promise of any specific result.

If you are experiencing significant emotional or physical distress, please consult a qualified professional.
