TRADITION
Horary Astrology
Horary astrology answers a specific question by casting a chart for the moment the question is asked, not for the querent's birth.
Sister discipline to electional astrology: where horary reads a moment to answer a question, electional chooses a moment to optimize an action. Horary's strict traditional rules (turned houses, planetary days/hours) inform modern electional methodology.
