Horary

Horary astrology is an ancient branch of astrology that predicts the future by using the time of a question, rather than the birth of a person. A traditional horary reading can provide a very precise, focused and accurate answer to a wide variety of questions by judging the astrological chart of the question. Natal charts or birth information are not used in horary astrology.
Horary astrology is an ancient branch of horoscopic astrology in which an astrologer attempts to answer a question by constructing a horoscope for the exact time at which the question was received and understood by the astrologer.
Horary Astrology has its own canons, apart from those governing other branches of Astrology, but the rules peculiar to it are reasonably simple and easily comprehended. However, the more worldly knowledge the practitioner possesses the more deftly will he interpret the Scheme, and the greater number of details he will be able to extract from it.

There are 4 important factors to consider in analyzing the astrological aspects in horary astrology namely:

1. Applying or separating aspect or “Ithasala and Easarapha”. When the faster moving planet is behind the slower moving planet then it is known as applying aspect. When the faster moving planet is ahead of / already crossed the slower moving planet then it is known as separating aspect. This is the most important factor determining whether the event will take place or not. Applying aspect between the significator planets means the event will likely take place while separating aspect means the event had already occurred, was a preceding event in the past and the event will not be likely to occur in the future

2. Positive or negative aspect. The positive aspects are trine (120 deg), sextile (60deg), conjunction (0 deg) and semi-sextile (30 deg) while the negative aspects are opposition (180 deg), square (90 deg) and quincunx (150 deg).
The conjunction of two malefic planets are nasty, between two natural benefic planets is good while between a natural benefic and natural malefic is neutral and depends on applying or separating aspect factor. The quincunx implies external assistance and quincunx between natural malefic planets implies failure while it is successful if otherwise and also depending on whether it is applying or separating aspect. Positive aspects implies ease, spontaneity, naturalness and flowing events while negative aspects implies obstacles and obstructions, stress
and tension, anxieties and worries

3. Dignity of aspecting planets – fallen (debilitated planets) or detrimental (placement of planet in opposite to its own house) planets are malefic. Malefic planets give strong negative results when exalted. Planets which are placed in own signs are beneficent and benefic. Debilitated planets imply lack of strength or will to attain objective

4. Natural benefic or malefic planets – Aspects between two natural benefic planets implies success while between two natural malefic planets implies failure while it is neutral between a natural benefic and natural malefic and depends on other factors.
