What is Horary Astrology?
Horary Astrology is the most practical type of astrology. You ask questions and receive specific answers to help you make decisions.
Horary astrology offers a unique perspective on the moment in time when a question is asked.
This can be particularly useful for people who are trying to make sense of difficult or confusing situations in their lives, or who are seeking answers to specific questions.
What can horary astrology be used for?
Horary astrology can be used to analyze a wide range of subjects that are relevant to our daily lives. For example:
- Career and work-related issues
- Relationships and love life
- Health and wellbeing
- Financial and money matters
- Personal growth and self-improvement
Horary can be used to answer a wide range of questions, including:
- Will I get the job I just applied for?
- Will my relationship with my partner improve?
- Should I move to a new city?
- Will my surgery be successful?
- Will my health improve?
- Is this the right time to start a business?
- Will I be successful in my upcoming exams?
These are just a few examples of the subject matters that can be analyzed and the types of questions that can be answered using horary astrology. In general, any situation or event that is important to an individual can be explored using this technique, and its related questions answered.
How does it work?
Horary astrology deals with the interpretation of chart that is drawn for the moment a specific question is asked to the astrologer. This is in contrast to natal astrology, which deals with the interpretation of a person’s birth chart and is focused on understanding the individual’s personality and life path.
By drawing a chart for the moment a question is asked, a trained horary astrologer can identify patterns and connections that may not be immediately apparent to the person asking the question. This can help to shed light on unseen factors and provide a deeper understanding of the situation.
Meaning and History
The word “horary” comes from the Latin word “hora,” which means hour. This reflects the focus of horary astrology on the specific moment in time when a question is asked, rather than on an individual’s birth chart.
Horary astrology has its roots in Traditional Astrology, which was practiced widely in ancient cultures such as Babylon, Egypt, Greece, as well as more recently in the whole of Europe. However, the rise of the Enlightenment in the 17th century led to a decline in the practice of Traditional Astrology in the West, as the emphasis on scientific and rational thinking led the mainstream to view astrology as superstition.
Despite this, horary astrology has continued to be practiced as a useful tool for answering specific questions and gaining insights into the future, understanding events and situations in the past and analyze the dynamics of a present situation.
What about medical and psychological matters?
In addition to addressing practical questions related to career, relationships, and other everyday matters, horary can also be used to answer more complex and nuanced questions related to medical, psychological, and spiritual issues.
For example, some examples of medical questions that can be answered using horary astrology include:
- What is causing my chronic pain?
- Will I recover from this illness?
- Is this the right time for me to undergo surgery?
- Should I try a new treatment for my condition?
- What is wrong with me? (Elemental Diagnosis)
Similarly, horary can also be used to address psychological questions, such as:
- How can I overcome my anxiety and stress?
- Is this the right time for me to seek therapy?
- What are the underlying causes of my depression?
- How can I improve my self-esteem and confidence?
- Do I have harmful unconscious habits?
Finally, horary can also be used to answer spiritual questions, such as:
- What is my life purpose?
- How can I connect with my higher self?
- How can I find inner peace and tranquility?
- What are the spiritual lessons I need to learn at this moment in time?
- What is my obstacle to Enlightenment?
What is Horary's relation to sun sign astrology?
There is no relation. While sun sign astrology is the type of astrology that is commonly seen in magazines and on the internet, horary astrology is actually a part of traditional astrology, which predates the 18th century. Sun sign astrology, on the other hand, was invented in the 19th century and is a modern interpretation of ancient types of astrology.
One key difference between the two types of astrology is that sun sign astrology is a simplified version of traditional astrology, whereas horary astrology is an in-depth and accurate way of answering specific questions. In other words, sun sign astrology cannot provide the same level of detail and precision as horary astrology can.
