Horary Indicators #
HoraryIndicatorsFactory assembles the core components an astrologer evaluates when reading a horary chart: the significators of the querent (1st house) and quesited (7th house), the classical considerations before judgment, and the mutual receptions among classical planets.
The Ascendant degree is read from the true Ascendant point (not the first-house cusp), so Whole Sign charts — where the cusp sits at 0° of the rising sign — are correctly handled.
Only terrestrial (geocentric/topocentric) perspectives are accepted.
Basic Usage #
from kerykeion import AstrologicalSubjectFactory, HoraryIndicatorsFactory
subject = AstrologicalSubjectFactory.from_birth_data(
"Question", 2026, 6, 4, 15, 30,
lng=12.4964, lat=41.9028, tz_str="Europe/Rome", online=False
)
indicators = HoraryIndicatorsFactory.from_subject(subject, is_moon_void=False)
print(f"Querent ruler: {indicators.querent.ruler}")
print(f"Quesited ruler: {indicators.quesited.ruler}")
for c in indicators.considerations:
print(f" [{c.status}] {c.key}")
Methods #
from_subject(subject, *, is_moon_void=None) #
Build the indicators for a question chart.
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
subject |
AstrologicalSubjectModel |
– | The chart cast for the moment of the question. |
is_moon_void |
bool | None |
None | Whether the Moon is void of course (from a separate void-of-course calculation). None omits the Moon void considerations. |
Returns: HoraryIndicatorsModel
Raises: KerykeionException when the chart’s perspective is not terrestrial.

HoraryConsiderationModel #
The model carries a stable key, not display prose: wording belongs to the consuming product (and its active school), the engine states the fact.

asc_judgeable |
favorable |
Ascendant at a judgeable degree. |
moon_void |
caution |
