Introduction
Horary is the branch of astrology which deals
with answering questions. The astrologer can make predictions from these questions by
judging a horoscope for the moment the question is asked. The horoscope is set up in
exactly the same manner as any other form of astrology. One of the differences between
horary and other branches is its reliance on a simple set of rules. These rules are
important in the judgement of the horoscope. No other branch of astrology relies on rules
to the same extent as horary. It is the rules that usually decide the outcome to
questions. The following lessons have been designed specifically to teach these horary
rules.
Most questions can be answered with a simple yes or no. Applying major aspects, or their
absence, between the ruler of the ascendant and the ruler of the sign on the cusp of the
house asked about or, the Moon and the planet ruling the sign on the cusp of the house
asked about, can decide the answer to the question. The art of horary is in knowing the
rules by which these major aspects will give a positive or negative result, and how to
apply them. The meanings of the 12 houses can easily be obtained from any of the quality
textbooks on astrology.
Perfection can also be achieved when significators are within applying moiety of orbs by
parallel and contraparallel, and also, by the antiscia and contrantiscia. These rules will
be introduced at a later date, so continue watching this homepage.
