What planets can be reported? MC, Asc, Sun and Moon directed to natal Sun, Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus, and Mercury.

What aspects can be 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.

How does this work?

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. Tapping this record shows the aspect report. He has an Asc Trine Jupiter aspect 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.

1. Select bi-wheel, and Secondary Progression. Scroll Quick Year to 1966.

2. Tap Aspects Icon button for the Aspect Table

3. Tap the record with the + marker

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, 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.

 

Here’s the rules for calculating the strength and debility of an aspect:

• House positions apply to apply planets and radix.
• Dignities and debilities apply to radix positions, and applying progressed planet/point
• Infortune, Fortune – applying progressed planet/point to radix planet

Here’s two example calculations (excluding house positions) – Sun progressed to radix positions.

Progressed Aspect: Sun Square Jupiter  

Points for radix positions:

Sun/Leo – ruler 5 points

Jupiter/Sag – ruler, term  8 points

13 points radically

Points for Progressed Sun square radical Jupiter

Sun/Virgo.  Peregrine  -5 points

Total points 8

 

Progressed Aspect: Sun Conj Mars  

Points for radix positions:

Sun/Leo – ruler 5 points

Mars/Libra: Detriment -4 points

1 point radically

Points for Progressed Aspect Sun Conjunct Mars

Sun/Libra, Fall -4 points

Bodily conjunction with an Infortune, -5 points

Total points – 8
