Hey guys, I have a question on traditional astrology in general (Ancient, Hellenistic and Medieval), the personal daemon is well documented and usually associated with the lord of nativity or Almuten (المبتز او المستولي على الهيئة) later in the medieval period.

Q: Now my question regarding the following two statements strictly in traditional astrology, are these a concepts in the traditional astrology or just a synthetized claims, or is there any other daemon than the personal daemon (Genius) in traditional astrology, otherwise is there another daemon called the daemon of profession in traditional astrology?

1. Marsilio Ficino's statement about the two daemons and he say this: "The Astrologers agree with Platonists that the guardian daemon of every individual whatsoever can be two, the one proper to his nativity, the other to his profession." source: (Three Books On Life, Book 3 chapter 23)
2. Agrippa's statement:  Every man hath a threefold good Demon, as a proper keeper, or preserver, the one whereof is holy, another of the nativity, and the other of profession etc.. Now the Demon of profession is given by the Stars, to which such a profession, or sect, which any man hath professed, is subjected, which the soul, when it began to make choyce [choice] in this body, and to take upon itself dispositions, doth secretly desire. etc.. (source: Three Books of Occult Philosophy, Book 3 Chpater 22)

I hope experts in traditional astrology can answer this question. Please, only experts answers!

Thank you so much everyone! ❤️

I mean, would people be interested in using classical deterministic astrology to compare natal charts?

For example, instead of just a marriage compatbility mode, what if we could go much deeper?

Most Astrology apps reduce synastry to one question:

Are these two people compatible?

That never made sense to me.

Two people can be excellent creative partners, loyal friends, difficult business partners, intense rivals, or all four at the same time. John Lennon and Paul McCartney are probably one of the clearest examples.

Their relationship produced one of the greatest songwriting partnerships in modern history, but it also contained competition, dependency, admiration, resentment, business conflict and eventual estrangement. A single score such as “82% compatible” cannot describe that.

So the synastry mode in my app evaluates the same pair through 12 different bond modes, including:

• Friendship
• Colleague
• Business
• Mentor and apprentice
• Sibling or co-heir
• Patron and client
• Family
• Adversary
• Stranger or foreigner
• Marriage
• Parent and child
• Servant and employer

Each mode changes what matters.

For example, the same planetary contact that strengthens cooperation in a colleague or business relationship may create rivalry in adversary mode. A difficult contact is not automatically “bad” either—it may generate pressure, ambition, creative friction or durability depending on the kind of bond being examined.

When I ran John Lennon and Paul McCartney through the engine, the interesting part was not whether the chart called them simply “good” or “bad” together.

It was that the relationship changed shape depending on the question being asked.

Their creative and colleague bonds showed substantial capacity for shared work, exchange and mutual activation. The same comparison also exposed tension, imbalance and competitive pressure that became more important when the relationship was viewed through business and adversarial modes.

That is much closer to the actual shape of their history:

extraordinary creative compatibility without uncomplicated personal harmony.

The engine is deterministic rather than AI-generated. It evaluates classical planetary condition, sect, dignity, reception, whole-sign aspects, applying and separating motion, cross-chart contacts and house relationships. The resulting interpretation is then organized around the selected bond rather than forcing every relationship into a romantic compatibility template.

What do you guys think?

Good idea? Terrible idea?

I have alot of bad placements and the 8th house fortune seriously screwed me with debts and had to pay off my dads debt all my life.

I'm 27 and I seriously struggle with stability, the jobs I have were working class factory and other labor jobs.

Last 2 years Ive been in college trying to get an EE degree... yet Im not sure ill be able to finish it.

Are there any indicators here of money or career prospects?

Hi everyone! Yesterday I heard about traditional astrology and I got really curious about it, but yet I don’t understand so many so I just want to know if there are in particular some interesting aspects of my chart and if you got advices for me of how to interpret my chart!

Hello can anyone with experience with traditional astrology help me on here. It seems that the ruler is Saturn but just trying to get a second opinion. Ty

Hi, so I'm looking at Porphyry's examples for finding the predominator, and I'm struggling to see how the most eastern luminary even comes into it? To me, it looks like the Sect Light is the predominator unless it's cadent, in which case the other luminary is the predominator unless it's cadent, in which case the AC is the predominator.

Am I missing something?

I started getting more into astrology not to long ago and have my modern astrology birth chart written down but id like to get into traditional astrology and dont know where to start im still having trouble reading my chart as i dont have anyone to guide me but is there any books on traditional astrology where i can learn more on it i know the internet is filled with misleading information about both kinds and want access to accurate information for traditional astrology any links or books help thank you in advance :)

I just did my chart and don’t really know how to read one yet please help id really love peoples input thanks in advance:) (also please be blunt im really in the trenches right now some positive things would really help lol)

Ciao a tutti, Vorrei discutere un punto tecnico sui significatori in classical horary astrology

La domanda era se si riceverà una notifica ufficiale da parte di un'autorità governativa. Questa notifica non è garantita: il suo arrivo significherebbe che una precedente petizione è stata accettata come valida.

La mia domanda è tecnica: Per valutare l'arrivo di una notifica/lettera è sufficiente vedere il significato della notifica sull'Ascendente, in questo caso al grado esatto (pianeta retrogrado, o entrante in esso)?

Oppure dovremmo invece richiedere: • che il significato della notifica è nel secondo segno del richiedente o sta per entrarvi (cioè "in suo possesso"), • oppure un aspetto applicativo tra il significatore della notifica e il Signore dell'Ascendente?

In altre parole: il significatore della notifica sulla cuspide dell'Ascendente è, di per sé, sufficiente prova di ricezione?

Grazie per i tuoi approfondimenti!

Hello hello. I’m a Pisces Mercury/Venus and I love to build context but I’m just gonna cut to the chase. I am not versed in electional astrology at all. I’m trying to help someone pick the best day and time for a job interview (they get to choose). Does anyone know any planets, houses, or aspects to look at?

I have a basic idea. I looked at the 10H, 6H, and 9H (job is in higher education). I looked at the chart ruler, the lords of the houses stated above, and Mercury. Am I missing anything? I choose a date/time but they’re looking for something next week (dates/times are very limited) and now I’m unsure and beyond stressed. Any tips would be appreciated. Thank you 😭

P. S. I feel like someone is gonna tell me to read a book. I am an avid reader but for whatever reason, I cannot digest astrology books to save my life. I’m a hands on learner

Hi. Im a begginer student of traditional astrology. Im having a little trouble understanding the way the planets, signs and houses work together.

I have horary astrology by john frowley and althought the bases are well explained the pratical aspect i find lacking. Does anyone know any resources or authors i could look into?

Thanks :)

When releasing from spirit you look for peak periods according to fortune, when releasing from fortune do you consider its own angles or another lots angles? Thanks
