CA = Christian Astrology, William Lilly, 1647
Specifically: Secondary Progressions and Solar Arc Directions to the radix – bi-wheels. Including basic strength and debility calculations for the aspect. Note that Lilly’s and Partridge’s aspect reports were originally compiled for Primary Directions. AC has applied/associated these primary directions with AC’s Secondary progressions and Solar Arc directions. I think that this is a valid and useful application of these reports – some may not agree. Some of the reports can be somewhat alarming – please read these 17th century reports in the context they were written and apply 21st century appropriate and sensible interpretations.
For instance, Partridge’s reports for MC Conj, Square or Opposite Mars includes the following
if he is a Highway-man, he is now Hanged for Thieving.
A 21st century translation might be “A possible highly involved entanglement with the law and judiciary.”
What is meant by a report?
A report can be a textual analysis of a particular part of a chart. A report can be a textual analysis/understanding of the whole chart. For AC, reports (text stored in AC’s database) are available for aspects (although not all aspects) to the radix. Specifically Secondary progressions, and Solar Arc bi-wheels. The analysis/reports are taken from copyright-free books and stored in your AC’s database.
Note that most of the text has been updated to correct outdated spellings.
The Moon’s aspects
Generally speaking the Moon’s secondary progressed aspects are considered important but somewhat minor unless the chart has a heavily configured Moon. It may be useful to read the Moon’s aspects by Solar Arc as these are considered, I believe, as powerful as any other aspect.
Report text/analysis taken from:
Christian Astrology, William Lilly, 1647
What planets/points are reported? MC, Asc, Sun and Moon directed to natal Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn.
What aspects are reported? Conjunction, Sextile, Trine, Square and Opposition.
Note that the sextile and trine give the same report. The square and opposition are considered the same for the reports. From the AC Report Settings 45 and 135 degree aspects can be associated with the Square and Opposition reports.

The Progressed Horoscope by Alan Leo, 1906
What planets/points are reported? Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars directed to natal Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Mercury, Sun and Moon,
What aspects are reported? Conjunction, Semi-Sextile, Semi-Square, Sextile, Square, Trine, Sesquiquadrate, Quincunx, Opposition, Parallel. (0, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 135, 150, 180, 0)
Note that Leo states: Mercury Trine, Sesquiquadrate, Quincunx, Opposition to Venus secondary progressed aspects cannot be formed during the normal span of earth life. This restriction does not apply to solar arc aspects, but because Leo’s reported aspects are only Secondary Progressed the Solar Arc aspect reports are not included.
Note also there are no MC or ASC aspects to planets or points.

AC’s Report Database also available from Report Settings – see above
Now includes None option – don’t show any reports or indicate any reports are available via the Aspect Tables. None overrides all other Report settings. However the Reports database table continues to be available.
How does this work? Using AC’s Reports (for bi-wheels):
When as aspect perfects or is within its assigned orb on a particular date/year it is shown in the Aspect Table. In the example below Al Pacino’s 1966 secondary progressed aspects to the natal chart is shown in the Aspect Table. If an aspect has an associated report a + marker is appended to the aspect record. Long-press this record shows the aspect report. He has an Asc sec. progressed Trine to radical Jupiter aspect in 1966 that has an associated report.
The Al Pacino chart can be opened from your Provided Charts if you wish to follow the following instructions to get the exact same results.
-
Select bi-wheel, and Secondary Progression. Scroll Quick Year to 1966.
2. Tap the Aspects Icon button for the Aspect Table. After the aspect table is populated note the + marker. This indicates an AC aspect report is available for that particular aspect. Note that for modern aspect interpretations the + marker is currently not shown.
3. Long-press the record with the + marker. This invokes the following view – Report for Aspect.

Strength And Debility Analysis by AC
A basic analysis of the radix aspect and the progressed or directed aspect is made by AC using some of the scoring values listed by Schoener’s Table to Examine the Strength & Debility of Each Planet. Once this has been done a graphical display shows the scores. This may allow you to take a more-informed view of the progressed or directed aspect’s meaning/outcome.
For instance, assume the radix has a Sun/Leo/1st house trine to Jupiter/Sagittarius/5th House aspect and the Sun’s progressed aspect is a square to radical Jupiter. The analysis from Lilly etc, may be far too negative for this progressed aspect if we are aware that the radix positions are so favourable. It is hoped that AC’s algorithm will help in providing a more accurate assessment of the progressed or directed aspect by showing a +ve or -ve graphical score, see screenshot below.
To clarify: the graphical display show AC’s analysis of the aspect, a positive score. The textual report is Lilly’s analysis of the aspect which is negaive. Note the difference.
Note that, in this case (Sun/Leo/1st house trine to Jupiter/Sagittarius/5th House aspect), it is useful to see how a Sun trine Jupiter aspect is analysed as this might be more appropriate. To do this inspect the Reports Database.
Here’s AC’s rules for calculating the strength and debility of an aspect:
-
Fortune: Venus, Jupiter
- Infortune: Mars, Saturn
- House positions apply to both radix planets/points. eg in 1st house or 12th house
- Dignities and debilities (planets only) apply to both radix positions, plus dignity or debility of applying progressed planet/point. Includes terms and triplicities.
- Infortune, Fortune – applying progressed planet/point to radix planet, eg application to a fortune by trine, application to an infortune by a square
Here’s two example calculations – Sun progressed to radix positions.
Progressed Aspect: Sun Square Jupiter (Sun in Leo in the 1st house, Jupiter in Sag. in the 5th house in trine aspect natally – Placidus cusps. Sun progressed to 2nd house, square to Jupiter in the radix.)
- House Positions: (radix only)
Sun in 1st house = 5 points; Jupiter in 5th house = 3 points
total: 8 points
- Points for radix positions: Dignities and debilities
Sun/Leo – domicile ruler 5 points
Jupiter/Sag – domicile ruler, trip (Lilly) 8 points (domicile = 5, trip = 3)
total: 13 points
- Points for Progressed Sun square radical Jupiter: dignity or debility of applying progressed planet/point
Sun/Virgo. Peregrine -5 points
- Application to a fortune (by sextile or Trine)/infortune(by Square or Opposition)
Sun = 0 points ( Sun square Jupiter)
Total points: 8 points + 13 points – 5 points + 0 points
Total = 16
Natal Dignities and Debilities table for Sun Trine Jupiter (see above)
Progressed Aspect (2nd example): Sun Conj Mars (Sun in Leo in 1st house, Mars in 3rd house in Libra in sextile aspect natally )
House positions not calculated.
Points for radix positions:
Sun/Leo – ruler 5 points
Mars/Libra: Detriment -4 points
1 point
Points for Progressed Aspect Sun Conjunct Mars
Sun/Libra, Fall -4 points
Bodily conjunction with an Infortune, -5 points
Total points – 8
