Horary answers a specific question from the chart of the moment the question was asked. It uses no birth data whatsoever, which makes it the odd one out among everything else here — and it is the branch closest to divination, with a long and rigorous technical tradition behind it.

The method assigns significators: the querent takes the ruler of the Ascendant, the thing asked about takes the ruler of the relevant house, and the relationship between those two planets is the answer. A applying aspect between them is traditionally a yes.

⚠️ Before any of that, the tradition applies considerations before judgement — conditions under which the chart is held unfit to read at all. An Ascendant in the first three or last three degrees, the Moon void of course, Saturn in the seventh: each is a traditional reason to decline. Umbriel checks these and says so, rather than producing a confident answer from a chart the tradition would refuse.

Practitioners disagree about how binding the strictures are. Umbriel's position is to show them and let you decide, which is the same position it takes everywhere else there is a genuine dispute.

The chart is cast for the moment the question is asked at the place you asked from, with no birth data involved anywhere. The significators are assigned from whole-sign or quadrant houses depending on your setting, and applying versus separating is determined from actual planetary speeds rather than assumed direct motion — which matters, because a retrograde significator reverses whether a contact is forming or dissolving. The considerations before judgement are checked mechanically and reported as a list, so the chart tells you when the tradition would decline to read it.
