Method

The receipts, not the landfill.

This page proves Astrolabe has a method without making Gabby read every intermediate row. The raw receipts still exist inside each daily entry and feature page; this is the clean audit map.

InputVerified birth data

12 supplied natal placements from 31 Oct 1993, 21:58, London.

CalculationSwiss Ephemeris

11 bodies, 12 Placidus cusps, 24 major aspects, 12 patterns.

24 aspects / 12 patterns / 11 placements / 6 points / 12 houses.

How one reading is made

01Calculate the chart

Birth data is recomputed with Swiss Ephemeris using tropical zodiac and Placidus houses.

02Derive chart threads

Planets, houses, aspects, patterns, and sensitive points become trackable curriculum features.

03Pick a topic

The scheduler favors prerequisites, low coverage, importance weight, variety, and strong current-sky hooks.

04Write with receipts

OpenRouter gets a structured packet: chart fact, source rules, continuity, selected Gabby context, and today’s sky.

Fixed birth map

This is Gabby's natal terrain: the chart she was born with. Today's moving sky is calculated separately and only used as flavor or a priority boost.

Natal chartFixed birth map

Houses, birth placements, and the tightest natal aspect lines. Today's moving sky lives in the Current Sky instrument.

Rules under the hood

7 calculation rules3 selection rules7 interpretation rules
calculationSwiss Ephemeris Calculations

Planet, point, speed, and house positions are calculated server-side with sweph using local Swiss Ephemeris files, tropical zodiac, and Gabby's verified birth time/location.

calculationNatal Input Validation

The Method page compares supplied natal positions against computed Swiss Ephemeris positions and flags anything more than two arcminutes away for review.

calculationBirthplace Precision

The prototype uses central London coordinates. Fast-moving angles such as the Midheaven can shift by a few arcminutes if exact birthplace coordinates differ.

calculationPlacidus Houses

House placements use Placidus as the primary modern default. Whole Sign can be added later as a comparison layer, but it is not mixed into the primary readings yet.

calculationWhole Sign Comparison

Whole Sign is intentionally visible on the Method page as a comparison layer from Gabby's Leo Ascendant. Daily readings remain Placidus-first so the app does not mix house systems inside one interpretation.

calculationMajor Aspect Orbs

Natal aspects use conjunction/opposition up to 8°, square/trine up to 6°, and sextile up to 5°. The curriculum sorts tighter aspects higher because they are more defining.
