HORARY ASTROLOGY.
This is one of the most ancient forms of astrology and deals
with answering specific questions and providing specific
answers. In the past, Horary
was the most common form of astrology. Few people possessed
watches or knew their date and birth time with any accuracy.
Horary negates the need for an accurate birth time, date or
place. The basis of the chart is when the
astrologer understands the question being asked. This
forms the birth chart of the question being proposed.
The person who asks the question is known as the querent.
The horary chart
can show the background leading up to the moment the question
was asked and indicates a possible outcome. Note the use of the
word possible. If the chart indicates all is well, then the
querent can relax. Should the chart indicate a potential problem
or issue, you can choose to act to change the situation to give
a different outcome. It is up to each individual what they
chose to do with the information presented.
Questions that
can be answered through horary relate to most aspects of life
such as marriage, work, wealth, children, travel, business,
buying goods whether it is a car, a property or stocks and
shares. Horary can be used to locate lost or missing items,
animals or people, confirm or deny rumours, ascertain who will
win or lose in games of chance or at court. Even matters
relating to medical, health or sickness can be answered using
horary.
The Horary
Question
When you decide
to ask a horary question, you need to give careful thought to
the information you are seeking. Do you want to know the
outcome? You also need to give thought to the way you phrase the
question and whether or not the question has relevance to you.
It is vital that the querent is clear about what they want to
know, and that the matter has some importance for them. Relevant
background information is usually helpful, although not always
necessary, enabling the astrologer to assess the current stage
of the matter. For example, a person asks will they ever marry,
when what they really want to ask is, will I marry X?
Likewise asking if you will obtain a specific job when you
haven’t yet applied is fruitless.
Sometimes the astrologer will say the
chart cannot be read or provide an answer. There is nothing to
be feared when this happens. It could be that the situation you
are asking about has not yet materialised or, that events have
moved on too far for you to influence them in anyway. Remember
that the chart will answer you honestly if the question is
important to you, it is then up to you what you do with the
information.
Now we come onto Electional Astrology. The
difference between this and Horary, is that with Horary, you are
seeking an answer to a specific question, whereas with
Electional, you are seeking the best time to act by setting up a
“good” chart and choosing to be proactive
