Horoscope Herald calculator

Personal Monthly Forecast

Search actual major-aspect crossings for a selected transit body and natal target. View computed factors without outcome or intensity scores.

Provider chart calculation

Input

Natal chart plus monthly forecast

Enter birth details or load a saved physical chart, then choose the body pair and the start of the search interval.

Exact birth data

Natal chart

Birth settings establish the fixed natal target. Legacy charts with unknown settings are calculated again.

Select the exact city from the suggestions. Coordinates and timezone are stored automatically.

Use the time on the birth certificate if you can. Houses and the Rising sign depend on it. No birth time? The Sun Sign Calculator works from the date alone.

31 base position requests, plus root/station refinement; at most 96 requests and 960 estimated provider credits. Requests are paced; longer searches can take several minutes. Deadline: 10 minutes. No automatic charged retries. A fresh natal chart adds one request (20 estimated credits).

The monthly interval starts at local midnight. All five major aspects are included. Long intervals for fast bodies can exceed the bounded search budget.

Output

Personal monthly forecast result

Computed factors for the selected body pair. Times display to the minute; UTC, residuals and convergence brackets are preserved in the private export.

Awaiting result

Choose a body pair and submit to search its crossings throughout the selected interval.

Input

Complete event calendar

Search all ten transiting bodies against all ten fixed natal positions, including repeated direct and retrograde hits.

The monthly interval runs from local midnight to the next interval boundary. One supplementary request, at most 120,000 ten-body sample evaluations and a 160-second deadline. If no completed source chart is available, one fresh AstroWay chart adds 20 estimated credits. Service availability is checked before that request. Private imports work now.

Output

Complete calendar result

All declared bodies and intervals are required. PDF includes every event; JSON retains every source. PNG saves the displayed result page.

Awaiting result

A complete calendar adds computed events between the sampled checkpoints. Nodes, angles, asteroids and house changes are outside this declared method.

Method, examples and further reading

Guide

How this calculator works

Search actual major-aspect crossings for a selected transit body and natal target. View computed factors without outcome or intensity scores.

Who it is for

Readers exploring computed transit contacts to a selected natal planet.

Required input

Birth details or a saved physical tropical chart; one transit body, one natal target, start date and IANA forecast timezone.

Method note

Only the selected body pair is covered. Roots require a residual within 0.001 degrees and a bracket within 60 seconds. Broad independent event acceptance remains pending.
  • The natal chart establishes one fixed tropical longitude. Unknown legacy settings require recalculation.
  • A bounded continuous-angle search resolves directed major-aspect crossings, including station splits and repeated hits.
  • Each event exposes UTC, direction, angular residual and final bracket. Incomplete searches return an error, never a best window.

Guide

What the result means

These are measured angular contacts for the selected body pair. Their interpretation does not measure success, stress, wellbeing or wealth.

Example result

Personal Monthly Forecast example

A computed contact lists its aspect, minute-level local time, UTC instant and direction. Retrograde and direct repeats remain separate.

Compare another body pair while keeping the natal settings and interval explicit.

Readers exploring computed transit contacts to a selected natal planet.

Search directed major-aspect crossings for one transit body and a physical natal target, with repeat hits and explicit timing coverage.

Use this section before and after the result: first to understand what the tool measures, then to interpret the answer with context.

What it does

This page searches one month, from local midnight on your start date to the same date next month, for exact major-aspect crossings between one moving planet and one natal planet. A month is long enough to catch Mercury or Venus turning retrograde and hitting the same degree twice, which a weekly search rarely shows.

Input required

You give birth details or a saved chart, a start date, a timezone, a transiting body and a natal target. The transiting body matters most: the Moon is too fast for a month in the standard search, while the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn all fit.

How it works

The tool calculates your natal chart, then samples the transiting planet once a day (once a week for Jupiter and Saturn) and refines each crossing of the eight target degrees that sit 0, 60, 90, 120 or 180 degrees from your natal planet. Each crossing is labeled direct or retrograde.

How to interpret the result

Look first at how many cards share the same aspect. In a constructed example, natal Mars sits at 18 degrees Virgo and transiting Mercury stations retrograde near 20 degrees Virgo; the month may list a direct conjunction, then a retrograde conjunction about a week or two later. The third, direct hit can fall after the month ends, because a full Mercury retrograde with its approach and return spans more than a month. A Sun search usually returns one or two crossings, since the Sun covers about 30 degrees.

Why it matters

Monthly transit work sits between quick lunar timing and the slow outer-planet cycles. Compared with the monthly sign horoscope, which samples six noons for everyone with your Sun sign, this measures your own degrees continuously.

Traditional meaning

Tradition gives special weight to a planet that touches a natal point, backs over it in retrograde, and crosses it again, reading the sequence as a theme being reviewed. Mercury, ruler of thought and messages, is the classic example.

Reflection use

Pick a natal planet that matters to you and run Mercury, Venus and Mars against it one after another. Mark the listed dates in a calendar and note what you were thinking about on each.

Beginner mistakes to avoid

  • Choosing the Moon and assuming the over-budget message means the page is broken.
  • Counting a direct and a retrograde hit as two separate transits rather than one sequence.
  • Expecting the search to cover all planets at once, when it checks a single pair.

Limits to keep in mind

  • The month is checked for one body pair only, and a quiet result says nothing about other transits.
  • Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, the nodes and the angles cannot be chosen as either body.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does this cover every transit?

It searches the five major aspects for one selected transit body and natal target. Other pairs are outside its coverage.

Why is the forecast timezone needed?

It defines local midnight boundaries and display times. Geocentric transit longitudes do not depend on a forecast city's coordinates.

Does a contact predict an outcome?

No. The result records an angular event; it contains no intensity, success or category score.
